After struggling with breakouts and battling insecurities, Ellaina revamped her skin routine to incorporate AHA & BHAs. With the introduction of a non-stripping Alpha Beta AHA/BHA Daily Cleansing Gel and the iconic Alpha Beta Daily Peels, she saw her skin transform from bumpy breakouts to smooth and radiant. 

Read on to learn more about Ellaina’s skincare journey and the products that helped her get these impressive results!


Before using Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare, what was your skincare regimen? 

I used a variety of products, but it mainly involved a cleanser, witch hazel, a serum, and then a moisturizer. 

How did you feel about your skin prior to using Dr. Dennis Gross products? 

My skin was in a crazy breakout with these little bumps on my face! I didn’t know how to clear it up either, so I constantly wore makeup to cover it up. I became very insecure and started to project my insecurities onto others. 

What was the length of time between your before and after shots? 

Roughly 1 year, although my skin cleared completely around 5 months before those after photos were taken. 

What is your current skincare routine? 

The Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta facial cleanser, Witch Hazel (only AM) or Dr. Dennis Gross Universal Daily Peels (only PM), Dr. Dennis Gross Daily Moisturizer, SuperGoop Glow Sunscreen (only AM) or Natural SPF Sunscreen (only PM).



What did you like about each product in your regimen? What results did you see? 

The facial cleanser's active ingredients have helped clear my skin, while the Alpha Beta® Universal Daily Peel has smoothed my skin and helped cleanse my pours. The moisturizer keeps my smooth skin fresh and hydrated, while my SPF helps protect my skin barrier from the sun.
