Naturium Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Body Wash 16.9 oz — Daily AHA Cleanser with Red Algae Hydration

Naturium The Smoother Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Body Wash is a daily AHA cleanser that gently resurfaces rough, bumpy skin to reveal softer, smoother texture.

This 16.9 oz multi-use cleanser combines a balanced AHA blend—glycolic, lactic, pyruvic and tartaric acids—with hydrating red algae to exfoliate dead skin cells while helping skin feel more supple. Formulated at a skin-appropriate pH (4.25–4.75) and designed for all skin types, the body wash is gentle enough for daily use and can double as a facial cleanser for those accustomed to chemical exfoliants. As with all active products, a patch test is recommended before full application.

How does this body wash improve rough or bumpy texture?

The AHA blend in this formula works to loosen and slough away surface dead skin cells, smoothing the appearance of bumps and uneven texture. Glycolic acid helps refine and resurface, while lactic, pyruvic and tartaric acids support gentle, layered exfoliation for a more even skin feel over time.

• Contains glycolic, lactic, pyruvic and tartaric acids for multi-action exfoliation
• Helps remove buildup that causes roughness and bumpiness
• Red algae adds hydration to reduce tightness after exfoliation
• Formulated at pH 4.25–4.75 for effective AHA performance

Can I use this every day and on my face?

This cleanser is formulated to be gentle enough for daily use on the body and may be used on the face by people who tolerate daily chemical exfoliation. Start slowly when using on facial skin—every other day or a few times weekly—until you confirm skin tolerance, then adjust frequency as needed.

• Designed for daily body cleansing
• Suitable for facial use if your skin tolerates AHAs
• Patch test recommended before facial application
• Reduce frequency if you experience irritation

What skin types is this best suited for and are there any safety notes?

The formula targets all skin types seeking smoother texture—dry, normal, combination and oily—thanks to its hydrating red algae and balanced AHA profile. It is vegan, cruelty-free, paraben-free, gluten-free and dermatologist tested, but people with very sensitive or compromised skin should proceed cautiously and perform a patch test first.

• Formulated for broad skin compatibility and daily use
• Vegan, cruelty-free, paraben-free and gluten-free
• Dermatologist tested and pH-appropriate for AHAs
• Patch test advised for sensitive or reactive skin

How should I incorporate it into my routine and what results can I expect?

Use the wash in place of your regular body cleanser; lather, massage onto damp skin, then rinse. For facial use, apply a small amount, rinse, and limit initial frequency to avoid over-exfoliation. Over several weeks you can expect a noticeable improvement in surface smoothness and suppleness, while hydration from red algae helps minimize dryness.

• Use daily on body; begin gradually on the face
• Rinse thoroughly and follow with moisturizer and sunscreen
• Visible texture improvements typically appear with consistent use
• Store at room temperature; avoid contact with eyes

Who is this for: This product is ideal for people who want a reliable, affordable chemical exfoliant to target rough, uneven body texture and are comfortable using AHAs in their routine. It suits those who prefer a multi-use cleanser that can also serve as a facial option for AHA-experienced users, and for shoppers seeking cruelty-free, pH-appropriate skincare formulated in the USA. If you have very sensitive or barrier-compromised skin, consult a dermatologist or do a patch test before regular use.
