The Minimalist Alpha Lipoic + Glycolic 07% Cleanser is a mild exfoliating face wash designed for daily use. It combines Glycolic Acid (removes dead skin cells for glow) and Alpha Lipoic Acid (a strong antioxidant that reduces dullness) with Vitamin B5, Betaine, and Xylitylglucoside for hydration and soothing effects.
🔹 Pros:
Brightens dull skin.
Improves texture and smoothness.
Gentle formula, suitable for all skin types.
Doesn’t leave the skin overly dry due to hydrating ingredients.
🔹 Cons:
Very sensitive skin may feel slight tingling or dryness.
Results on acne or deep scars will take time.
✅ Overall: A good daily cleanser for brightening and smoothing the skin. Since it’s exfoliating, using sunscreen in the daytime is a must.

I’ve been using the Minimalist Glycolic Acid Cleanser for a few weeks now, and it has become a staple in my skincare routine. The formula is gentle yet effective — it cleanses without leaving my skin feeling stripped or dry. I especially appreciate that it contains 0.5% glycolic acid, which gives me a mild exfoliation every day, helping to smooth texture and brighten my complexion over time.
The gel consistency spreads easily, and a little goes a long way. After regular use, I’ve noticed fewer dull patches and a more even skin tone. It’s also fragrance-free, which makes it suitable for sensitive skin like mine.
Overall, this is a fantastic everyday cleanser if you’re looking for something that not only cleans but also subtly improves skin texture. Minimalist has nailed the balance between gentle cleansing and active skincare. Highly recommended for beginners to chemical exfoliation or anyone wanting that healthy glow without overdoing it.

I’ve been using the Minimalist Alpha Lipoic + Glycolic 07% Cleanser for over a month now, and it’s delivering impressive results—my skin feels noticeably softer and brighter right from the first wash, with smoother texture and more even tone after just 4-6 weeks, thanks to the potent blend of Alpha Lipoic Acid’s antioxidant protection and 7% Glycolic Acid’s gentle exfoliation. The fragrance-free formula with soothing Panthenol and Allantoin keeps irritation at bay, lathering easily for a quick rinse without any dryness, while the pH-balanced design maintains my skin barrier during daily AM/PM use.
At this price for a 100ml bottle, it’s exceptional value for money, offering salon-like glow and refinement that rivals pricier options.
