Mario Badescu Alpha Grapefruit Cleansing Lotion

The Mario Badescu Alpha Grapefruit Cleansing Lotion is a lightweight, alcohol-free toner designed to gently exfoliate and refresh the skin. Formulated with alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) from grapefruit extract and glycolic acid, it helps remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and promote a brighter, more even complexion. Salicylic acid adds mild acne-fighting benefits, making it suitable for oily, combination, or blemish-prone skin types. To use, apply a small amount to a cotton pad after cleansing and sweep over your face and neck, avoiding the eye area. The fresh citrus scent is invigorating without being overpowering. Because it exfoliates, start with once-daily use (preferably in the evening) and adjust based on your skin’s tolerance. This product can help refine skin texture and reduce the appearance of dullness over time. For best results, follow with a moisturizer and sunscreen during the day. A staple in many skincare routines, this lotion delivers gentle yet effective care without harsh irritation.
