Andalou Naturals Pumpkin Honey Glycolic Mask — 1.7 fl oz Gentle AHA Exfoliating Mask with Vitamin C for Radiant, Even Skin

Andalou Naturals Pumpkin Honey Glycolic Mask is a gentle AHA exfoliating mask that resurfaces and brightens skin using glycolic acid, pumpkin, and manuka honey.

This updated formula blends glycolic acid with Fruit Stem Cell Science, vitamin C, and nourishing botanicals to dissolve dull surface cells and reveal a more even, glowing complexion. Designed for normal to combination skin, the mask offers a noticeable glow with reduced tingling versus the earlier version, thanks to a soothing trio of sea buckthorn, moringa oil, and turmeric. It arrives in a convenient 1.7 fl oz jar and is intended for weekly to twice-weekly use as part of a balanced skincare routine.

How does this mask brighten and resurface skin?

The mask relies on glycolic AHA to chemically loosen dead skin buildup while pumpkin enzymes and fruit-derived ingredients support natural exfoliation. Vitamin C works alongside these actives to help even skin tone and enhance radiance without harsh physical scrubbing.

• Glycolic acid targets surface cells for smoother texture.
• Pumpkin provides enzymes and beta-carotene for gentle resurfacing.
• Vitamin C contributes to an illuminated, more uniform appearance.
• Fruit stem cell technology supports skin’s natural vitality.

What should I expect when I apply it?

On application you may feel a mild, pleasant tingle—an indicator that the AHA is active—but the new formula reduces that sensation compared with the earlier version. Apply to clean, dry skin, avoid the eye area, leave on 15–20 minutes, then rinse with cool water.

• Apply evenly to dry, cleansed skin; avoid eyes and lips.
• Leave for 15–20 minutes; remove thoroughly with water.
• Use 1–2 times per week as part of evening or midday skincare.
• Follow with sunscreen the next day when exposed to sunlight.

Is this formula gentle enough for sensitive skin?

The formula was rebalanced to reduce excess tingling by adding calming botanicals like sea buckthorn, moringa oil, and turmeric, while keeping the active level of glycolic acid consistent. However, anyone with very sensitive or barrier-compromised skin should perform a patch test first or consult a skincare professional.

• Reduced tingle due to soothing ingredients in the new formula.
• Contains non-irritating plant oils and extracts to support comfort.
• Patch test recommended for reactive or compromised skin types.
• Not formulated as a medical treatment—avoid open wounds or severe irritation.

How does this fit into my weekly skincare routine?

This mask works best as a targeted weekly treatment to accelerate shedding of dull cells and boost brightness. It complements gentle cleansers, hydrating serums, and broad-spectrum SPF for daytime protection to preserve the results.

• Use 1–2 times weekly in place of a physical scrub or stronger peel.
• Pair with hydrating serums and moisturizers afterward to maintain barrier health.
• Always follow with sunscreen during daytime to protect newly revealed skin.
• Monitor skin response and adjust frequency if dryness or irritation occurs.

Who is this for: This mask is suited for people with normal to combination skin who want a brighter, smoother complexion without physical abrasion. It benefits anyone looking to manage dullness, uneven texture, or mild congestion while preferring plant-derived ingredients and cruelty-free, non-GMO formulations. Those with sensitive or reactive skin should proceed cautiously and perform a small patch test before full-face application.
