Glycolic Acid Body Lotion 12% AHA for KP, Crepey, Rough & Bumpy Skin - Firming, Exfoliating, Smooth & Hydrate | The Lotion

For skin that hasn’t improved with anything else.
Most body lotions are designed to hydrate, but they do not address the build up that causes rough, bumpy and uneven skin texture. This is why keratosis pilaris, strawberry legs and crepey looking skin often remain, even with consistent moisturising. Hydration alone does not remove the surface build up that contributes to texture.

This is where exfoliation changes the result.
A high performance firming, exfoliating body lotion designed for skin that has not responded to standard moisturisers. Smooths rough, bumpy skin, keratosis pilaris, strawberry legs and crepey looking skin while improving visible skin texture and overall skin quality.

Powered by 12% glycolic acid, urea, niacinamide and Shea Butter for smoother, softer, more refined looking skin.

Formulated to:
• dissolve built up dead skin cells
• smooth keratosis pilaris (KP) and rough areas
• improve skin texture and uneven tone
• support visibly smoother, more refined looking ski

How to use

A simple 3-step application designed for consistent results
1

Apply at the right time

Apply to clean, dry skin in the evening, when your skin is in its natural repair phase.

2

Let it absorb fully

Massage gently into the skin until fully absorbed. No rinsing required.

3

Protect your results

If used during the day, follow with SPF to protect against increased sun sensitivity from exfoliation.

Consistency matters more than quantity. Apply regularly for best results.

Clinical and Dermatological Evidence

Archives of Dermatology, 1996: Double-blind controlled trial showing topical glycolic acid improved skin texture and photodamage through increased surface cell turnover.

Photodermatology Photoimmunology and Photomedicine, 2003: Demonstrated that 10% glycolic acid increased UV sensitivity, supporting the need for daily sunscreen when using AHA products.

World Journal of Clinical Cases, 2021: High-concentration glycolic acid significantly improved keratosis pilaris roughness and follicular pigmentation during treatment.

Dermatologic Therapy, 2018: Confirmed urea’s dual function as a humectant and keratolytic, improving hydration while softening thickened, rough skin.

British Journal of Dermatology, 2000: Niacinamide increased stratum corneum ceramides and improved skin barrier function.

British Journal of Dermatology, 2002: Niacinamide reduced melanosome transfer, supporting improved tone clarity and dark spot appearance.

Why Some Body Lotions Feel Soft but Texture Returns

Many body lotions improve surface softness but do not address the underlying causes of rough or uneven texture. This in-depth guide explains why texture returns, what makes a body lotion truly texture-focused, and how modern formulations combine exfoliation, hydration, and barrier support to deliver longer-lasting results. Learn how a treatment-level body lotion can redefine what effective body care looks like for rough, bumpy, and keratosis pilaris-prone skin.

Glycolic Acid for Body Skin: Advanced Renewal Science That Works

A Game Changer for My Skin!
I’ve struggled with keratosis pilaris on my arms for years, but this lotion has been a total lifesaver. After just a few nights, the bumps were noticeably smoother, and my skin feels so soft like I’ve been to a spa. No irritation, no greasy mess just results really fast

Finally, Something That Works Pretty Quick

I was skeptical about another body lotion and but this one blew me away. My strawberry skin and dark spots started fading within a week, and it’s so hydrating without feeling heavy. I use it every night, and my skin has never looked this even or felt this silky. I’m glad I gave it a go.
