Chemist at Play AHA Body Lotion 236ml — 5% Natural AHA with Niacinamide & Shea Butter for Gentle Exfoliation and Deep Hydration

This lightweight 236ml AHA Body Lotion from Chemist at Play uses fruit-derived alpha hydroxy acids alongside niacinamide and rich shea butter to smooth flaky patches, reduce the appearance of bumps, and hydrate without irritation. Formulated to be vegan, cruelty-free and free from fragrances, silicones, parabens, mineral oil and dyes, it’s designed for anyone seeking a science-backed approach to clearer, softer skin on the body.

How does this AHA Body Lotion gently remove dead skin?

The lotion contains 5% natural AHAs sourced from fruit extracts (like sugarcane, orange, lemon and sugar maple) that loosen the bonds between dead skin cells for gentle exfoliation. Its concentration is balanced to help shed roughness and reduce strawberry legs or patches without aggressive abrasion.

• 5% natural AHA blend for chemical exfoliation
• Fruit-derived acids chosen for mild, skin-friendly action
• Formulated to reduce flaking and bumpiness from keratosis pilaris

Will this lotion also hydrate and calm my skin?

Yes — niacinamide and shea butter work together in this formula to restore moisture, strengthen the skin barrier and soothe inflammation that can accompany dryness. The result is skin that feels softer, looks more even and maintains hydration longer after application.

• Niacinamide for barrier support and visible evening of skin tone
• Shea butter for deep, lasting moisturization
• Non-irritating base suitable for dry, rough areas

Is this product safe for sensitive or problem-prone body skin?

Chemist at Play formulated the lotion without common irritants — it’s fragrance-free, silicone-free, paraben-free, mineral oil-free, gluten-free and dye-free — to minimize reactions. Its gentle AHA level and supportive actives make it a suitable choice for many people with dry, bumpy or post-waxing skin, though patch testing is recommended for highly reactive skin.

• Free from fragrances and common irritants
• Vegan and cruelty-free formulation
• Patch test advised for very sensitive or eczema-prone areas

How should I use the AHA Body Lotion for best results?

Apply the lotion to clean, dry skin once daily, focusing on rough patches, upper arms, thighs and areas prone to strawberry legs. Use consistently; visible improvements in texture and radiance typically appear after several weeks as the skin completes renewal cycles.

• Use after showering on towel-dried skin for optimal absorption
• Start with every other day if you have never used AHAs on the body
• Apply sunscreen to exposed areas when using exfoliating acids regularly

Who is this for: This AHA Body Lotion is intended for people with dry, rough or bumpy body skin who want a gentle chemical exfoliant plus lasting nourishment. It’s a good fit for those dealing with keratosis pilaris, strawberry legs after waxing, or anyone seeking brighter, smoother skin without harsh scrubs or unnecessary additives. Backed by research and consumer insight, the formula is tailored for regular at-home use by adults seeking science-forward skincare routines.
