Dr Dennis Gross Alpha Beta AHA/BHA Daily Cleansing Gel — 2 fl oz, pH-Balanced Gel-to-Foam Exfoliating Face Wash

Alpha Beta AHA/BHA Daily Cleansing Gel is a pH-balanced gel-to-foam face wash that removes makeup, oil, and impurities while gently exfoliating to improve tone and texture.

This lightweight foaming cleanser combines alpha and beta hydroxy acids with botanical extracts to lift dirt and unclog pores without leaving skin tight or dry. The formula transforms from a silky gel into a creamy foam, rinses clean, and is designed for everyday use morning and night. It's formulated to be gentle enough for most skin types while delivering targeted exfoliation that helps the skin look smoother and more even over time.

How does this cleanser work on dull or congested skin?

The AHA/BHA blend helps loosen dead skin cells and clear debris lodged in pores, while the gel delivery creates a thorough, non-stripping cleanse. It tackles surface roughness and congestion over repeated use, giving a brighter, more refined appearance without heavy scrubbing.

• PHA/BHA combination targets both surface and pore-level buildup
• Gel-to-foam texture lifts makeup and sebum efficiently
• Non-drying formula preserves skin's natural moisture barrier

Will it remove makeup and work around the eye area?

Yes — the product is formulated to dissolve makeup, including around the lash line, while remaining gentle enough not to sting the eye area. It rinses clean and helps prep skin for follow-up treatments or serums.

• Removes daily makeup and surface sunscreen
• Safe for gentle massaging around the eyes
• Leaves skin soft to the touch, not tight

Is this suitable for sensitive or reactive skin types?

The cleanser is designed to be pH-balanced and free of sulfates and harsh soaps, which reduces the chance of irritation for many users. However, because it contains chemical exfoliants, patch-testing first is recommended if you have known sensitivity to AHAs or BHAs.

• Soap-free, sulfate-free, and formulated without parabens or phthalates
• Dermatologist-founded formulation with a focus on tolerability
• Start with alternate-day use if your skin is reactive

How should I use this cleanser to get the best results?

Use morning and/or evening as your first step in cleansing. Apply a small amount to wet hands, work into a lather, massage over the face (including around the eyes), then rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Follow with your preferred Alpha Beta peel or serums to maximize benefits.

• AM/PM: apply to wet skin, lather, rinse, and pat dry
• Complement with Alpha Beta Daily Peel for an enhanced regimen
• Consistent use improves texture and helps minimize the look of pores

Who is this for: This cleansing gel is aimed at anyone seeking a daily wash that cleans deeply without stripping — especially those with dull, uneven, or congested skin who want gentle chemical exfoliation built into their cleanser. It suits most skin types, including combination and oily skin, and is a good option for people looking to simplify their routine by combining makeup removal and light exfoliation in one step.
