Skincare Success Story: Dull Pores to Even Skin

January 11, 2023

Skincare can be confusing – and the overabundance of choices can be overwhelming. We live in a world where we are constantly bombarded by so-called “new” skincare products – making finding the right one for you a daunting task. 

Kayla was on the hunt for products that addressed her specific concerns: redness, bumps, and uneven texture. She wanted a skincare regimen that was proven to work and would treat her concerns without causing irritation or more redness. This is when her friend recommended a Dr. Dennis Gross regimen. 

Read on to learn more about Kayla’s 8-week skincare journey and the products that helped her get these radiant results!

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

Before using the Dr Dennis Gross Skincare products, I was pretty lost with what my skin actually needed. I always washed my face with any sort of gentle cleanser, but after that I wasn't sure what would help my skin problems. I would honestly just try anything that I would read about. However, most products would irritate my skin from the start, and I would stop using them. I am really insecure about the little bumps I had on my skin, so anything that would make it worse would automatically go in the trash. 

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

My skin has always been an insecurity of mine. From the age of 12, I had small bumps on my face that never seemed to go away and my redness was out of control. I was wearing a full coverage foundation from the start because all I wanted was for my skin to be even and covered. I have tried many things from Epiduo, Proactiv, and chemical peels. Nothing seemed to really do the trick and I have strived for a better outcome. 

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

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

My absolute favorite product I started using is the Alpha Beta Extra Strength Peel. Not only did this product give my skin an amazing glow, but there was an immediate change to the texture of my skin. I have always had somewhat of a dull, rough texture, but this product really has changed the way it feels. I am also loving the Advanced Retinol + Ferulic Texture Renewal Serum. It feels so good on the skin during my night routine with the Advanced Retinol + Ferulic Intense Wrinkle Cream. I have always hated multi-step skincare routines, but these products have made me love doing my nightly routine knowing that it is working. 

What are your Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare product essentials? What is on your wishlist?

If I could try every product from Dr. Dennis Gross, I would. The Alpha Beta Daily Peels are an absolute must for me. I don't think I can ever go back. I love the new Vitamin C Lactic Oil-Free Radiant Moisturizer and would like to try the cult-favorite, Vitamin C Lactic Dewy Deep Cream. I would also like to try the DRx Blemish Solutions™ Acne Eliminating Gel for those pesky breakouts that inevitably will happen!
