Mandelic Acid and its magical properties over the years have become very popular at Garden of Wisdom. Mandelic Acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid. Mandelic Acid encourages cell turnover by gently loosening dead skin, which acts as a glue to keep the skin congested. Since the molecule size of Mandelic Acid is twice the size of other alpha-hydroxy acids, it is a lot gentler, don’t be fooled, as the effect on your skin will be dramatic after several applications. There are so many applications for Mandelic Acid. It exfoliates and helps to reduce pigmentation; for blemish-prone skin, Mandelic Acid regulates sebum production and has exceptional antibacterial properties. Always start with a sample size of our 5% strength of Mandelic Acid to gently introduce your skin to this fantastic ingredient keeping in mind that less is often better for sensitive, damaged skin. Also, keep in mind to use this product no more than 3 x per week.
Skin is like smooth glass... non-invasive... simple and easy.... affordable... great stuff
What can I say? Garden of Wisdom's products are always lovely. This is one of the light, exfoliating products that gives an immediate glow with a finish like smooth glass, without any over-drying (or even any drying) effects).
Even my dentist and hygienist complimented my skin a few weeks ago.
I've been a GoW customer since my late 20s and I'm now 57. My skincare needs have, obviously, changed. However, as my skincare (and haircare) needs change, GoW always gives me what i need, based on what my skin needs.
I cannot do without Markey and Garden of Wisdom. No one will give you the personalized and individualized treatment services, clean products, clean raw ingredients, and custom formulations... Especially at a very affordable cost and fast shipping.
Perfect Pumpkin Exfo 15% Serum

Love the progeline peptide repair serum
I love this serum! I’ve tried many things over the years but this takes the cake!
I am falling in love with the texture of GOW products. This is lightweight and GENTLE formula for mild acne and redness, I am still in the works of finalizing my routine but this is HERE to STAY! Honestly it's impossible to even find a similar product with this good of formulation without the excess ingrinets that can be sneaky and cause problems.
Azelaic Acid 8% Serum

Great Overnight Jumpstart To Hairgrowth
I enjoy using this as an overnight scalp jumpstart to hair growth. It smells lovely and even though a little more heavy than other follicle stimulators, as it is intended to be rinsed out after overnight, it contains high end ingredients of competitor brands plus even better ingredients not found on the market. My scalp feels rejuvinated each use :)
Follicle Stimulator Serum (Peptides for Your Hair)

My new favorite
I wanted to add something different to my cleanser routine. I've typically used either GOW's Skin Friendly (Orange) or Oats, Milk and Honey cleansers. I grabbed a sample of this, and love the texture. It's very creamy and helped out soothing a couple of irritated facial areas. I have sensitive skin and it doesn't a heavy feel. A little goes a long way. Last order I bought 2 full jars. Thank you GOW for making getting me a new favorite.

Hi Evita!
Okay, this made our day! 😊 We're thrilled the Honey Butter Cleanser is your new favorite, especially since you're already a pro with our Skin Friendly and Oats, Milk & Honey cleansers. It sounds like your skin has great taste! We're so glad the creamy texture and gentle feel are a win for your sensitive skin. Thanks for trusting us with your routine (and for going all in with two full jars!).
You officially have excellent cleanser instincts.
With love,
The GoW Team
I have just recently started using this product, yet I can't get over how wonderful it makes my skin feel!! Already, deep lines aren't as deep. My skin feels firmer, yet not in a tight way. It feels plump and very hydrated. I will be back for more. :)
Tina
Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback! We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that you’re already seeing and feeling such positive changes in your skin.

Also, we miss seeing you! Come back to Prescott

I have tried nearly every eye product out there for my morning puffy, dark, aging eyes. This is the only product that 1) clears the dark circles, 2) removes all puffiness, 3) removed all fine lines, 4) is absorbed very quickly, 5) doesn't irritate my eyes, 6) doesn't irritate my skin, nor make it too dry, 7) and does not leave a film. I've been using it for over 6 years now. The only complaint I would have, is that the cap gets a tad gross over time if you don't clean it off. Highly Recommend!
Hi Judith ☺️
thank you so much for this thoughtful review! We’re honored to have earned a spot in your routine for over six years! That means the world to us. It’s wonderful to hear how well 'Pack Your Bags and Say Good Bye Eye Gel' has worked for you, especially given how hard it can be to find an eye product that truly delivers without irritation.
And, thank you for the helpful note about the cap, we appreciate the honest feedback and will keep that in mind.
We’re so grateful for your continued support!

This miracle oil works wonders with my thin, curly hair. Normal Moroccan Oil Treatment weighs my hair down, leaving it looking flat and blah. This Rockin Moroccan Goddess Hair Oil helps my curls to be less frizzy, full of body, shiny and happy. I mix a few drops of this oil with my curl cream and curl gel and apply all at once. And it smells lovely too.
Judith
We're always so happy to hear such positive reviews. It's great for other custojmers to know how nice this oil is. Knowing the Rockin Moroccan Goddess Hair Oil is bringing your curls to life without weighing them down is really cool. It’s wonderful that you’ve found the perfect way to blend it with your curl routine, and we’re thrilled it’s leaving your hair shiny, bouncy, and happy. We also love that you’re enjoying the scent!
Thank you for sharing your experience with us
This is the first copper serum I have ever tried, and loving it already. Just purchased my 2nd bottle. I use this serum along with their Rose Peptide and Tepezcohuite serums. My skin feels “velvety”, looks clearer and smoother. This will be another keeper for me, and I can’t wait to see all of the anti-aging benefits copper peptides are known for!
Kerrie! (she is a lovely local customer)
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're delighted (yep!) that our Copper Peptide Serum is the first you've tried and even more thrilled that it's already earned a place in your routine. Pairing it with the Rose Peptide and Tepezcohuite Serums sounds like a beautiful combination, and we’re so glad your skin is feeling velvety, clear, and smooth. We can’t wait for you to experience the long-term benefits copper peptides are known for.
Thank you for your support, you're the best!
P.S. it's always nice to chat with you.
