Description

Reveal smoother, softer-feeling skin with Naturium The Smoother Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Body Wash. This exfoliating cleanser combines glycolic acid with lactic, malic, pyruvic and tartaric acids to help remove dead skin buildup and improve the appearance of rough, uneven body texture.

Glycolic acid helps exfoliate the skin’s surface, making this body wash a useful option for those experiencing strawberry skin, keratosis pilaris and rough patches on areas such as the upper arms, thighs and buttocks. With consistent use, it helps promote a smoother-looking complexion and a more refined skin texture.

Unlike a basic body cleanser, this formula combines exfoliating acids with moisture-supporting ingredients, including glycerin, sodium PCA and sodium lactate, to help maintain skin comfort. Its fragrance-free formula is designed to cleanse and exfoliate without added fragrance, making it suitable for those who prefer unscented body-care products.

The creamy cleanser can be used as part of a regular shower routine to help improve the appearance and feel of rough or bumpy skin. Follow with a moisturizing body lotion to help maintain softness and hydration.

U3C Expert Tip

If you are using this body wash for strawberry skin, focus on consistent, gentle exfoliation rather than scrubbing aggressively. Follow with a moisturizer after showering, and avoid combining it with a separate strong AHA or BHA body treatment on the same day until your skin’s tolerance is established.

U3C Skin Insight

Strawberry skin can refer to keratosis pilaris, clogged follicles or visible pores after hair removal. Exfoliating acids may help improve rough texture, but they will not resolve every cause of bumps. If your skin becomes irritated, reduce use and priorities moisturizer.

Important Precautions

• For external use only.
• Avoid contact with the eyes.
• Do not apply to broken, freshly shaved or irritated skin.
• Patch-test before first use.
• AHAs can increase sensitivity to sunlight. Use sunscreen on exposed areas during use and for one week after discontinuing.
• Avoid combining with multiple strong exfoliating treatments on the same area.
• Discontinue use if persistent irritation develops.
• Check the product packaging for the current ingredient list and directions.

U3C Recommendation

A useful exfoliating body wash for people looking to improve rough texture, strawberry skin and dull-looking body skin. Its combination of glycolic acid and other AHAs makes it a practical option for a smoother-feeling complexion when used appropriately and paired with regular moisturizer.
