Glen Powell Uses This ‘Easy’ Skincare One-Two Punch

Glen Powell has been stealing the big-screen stage the past few years, winning over both men and women with his funny and charismatic portrayals in chart-topping films—most recently, of course, in Anyone But You opposite Sydney Sweeney and Twisters alongside Daisy Edgar-Jones.

It doesn’t hurt that he’s pretty easy on the eyes, either. The 35-year-old Texas native may enjoy a good tequila, but he also seems to take pleasure in self-care—having a fridge stocked with cactus water, kombucha, fruits, and vegetables and working out four-five times a week.

In a GQ interview, Powell also named Dr Dennis Gross’s Alpha Beta Universal Daily Peel as one of 10 things he can’t live without, and you can shop his skincare staple right on Amazon.

“I have a lot of wonderful ladies in my life … they introduced me to a great little skincare routine,” he said at the time. “Little two stepper by Dr Dennis Gross.”

Powell goes on to explain that he likes the simplicity of the wipes, which are similar in size to individually wrapped hand wipes. The small pouches replace several otherwise bulky products, which the Top Gun: Maverick actor calls out. He explains that this is especially helpful because he travels a lot for work, and these compact products make packing toiletries much more seamless than lugging a bunch of bottles through airport security.

“You just take one of these things out, rub it on your face, take the other one out, rub it on your face,” he said of using the daily treatment. “It’s easy as that.”

The exfoliating wipes use two types of chemical peels, alpha hydroxy acids or AHAs (like glycolic) and beta hydroxy acids or BHAs (think salicylic) to smooth, buff, and even skin in two ways: Water-soluble AHAs work on fine lines and wrinkles on the skin’s surface while oil-soluble BHAs go deeper and clear out blemishes. The first step is a wipe laden with acids to even out texture and minimize the appearance of pores, while the second leans hard into anti-aging with retinol and resveratrol. Soothing ingredients like chamomile and green tea extract work to calm the skin.

If you’re especially prone to breakouts, you might want to consider the Extra Strength Daily Peel, which features seven acids instead of five. The brand does recommend, however, starting with the gentler formula if you’re brand new to using acids in skincare.

Maybe we can’t all be blessed with Glen Powell’s eerily even facial symmetry, but we can try to get that Hollywood glow by copying his complexion-boosting strategy. Shop the Dr Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Universal Peel on Amazon.
