Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Universal Daily Peel
The format is the invention. Five acids in step one, antioxidants in step two, and the second pad is what stops the first one. Sealed in pairs so the dose is the same every night whether you are paying attention or not. Plenty of brands sell acid pads. Nobody sells the two-step version, because Dr. Dennis Gross holds it.
