This product may not be the best on very sensitive skin, however, the Dr. Dennis Gross alpha beta universal daily peel really helps to transform your skin. It helps fix breakouts, textured skin, and tightens pores. It’s crazy to think that as young women we are already worried about wrinkles, but we are.
