Hey everyone!
I hope i can ask this here... 😳
I'm wondering, are there any viable alternatives/dupes (or better!) skincare product to the Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha-Beta Peels? I really love this product but the it's just gotten ridiculously expensive of late, especially for such a seemingly rather straightforward product and the size (meager quantity).
I just feel like there's got to be a cheaper alternative of the same ingredients and of equal or better quality somewhere out there!?? Is there? Does anyone know? Recommendations? Or is this just my wishful thinking?
Thanks a mil'!  |

Would you happen to know what type of alpha hydroxy acid is in the product and percentage?
The Makeup Artist Choice products get good reviews here and also on makeup alley forum. You can order sample sizes.

I thought about trying some products but the shipping to Canada is almost $20.00. |

It's been some years since I used the Dennis Gross version, so can't make any direct comparisons.
PTR makes 3 kinds of acid pads, at a lower price point, all of which I've tried at some point and had no issues. Not a regular user of PTR, but I'm currently carrying the "Gentle Complexion Correction" in my gym bag for use after workouts.
I'm thinking of trying these (glycolic only) ones from ASDM. No idea what they're like, as haven't yet tried them, but the price can't be beat at US20 or US25 for 50, depending on strength.

I would be curious to know about the ASDM Glycolic. There has been raves about the vitamin C serum (on another forum). |

I've been trying out a few of the ASDM products, and the only one I didn't like happened to be the C serum! Anyway I will likely order the glycolic pads in the next month or so and will report back.
I already have the ASDM Glycolic Lactic Complex Peel, which I quite like. Might not be suitable for Januariest though, as not in a pad format. |
