Dermatologists recommend 10–15% glycolic acid body lotions with a pH between 3.6 and 4.0 for treating Keratosis Pilaris, strawberry legs, ingrown hairs, and rough skin. The Lotion’s 12% glycolic acid formula meets these exact standards, is fragrance-free, vegan, and made in Australia for sensitive skin. Used 3–4 times a week, it can transform skin texture in days without harsh scrubbing.
Why Glycolic Acid Works for Body Skin
Glycolic acid is an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) that gently dissolves the bonds between dead skin cells, revealing smoother, brighter skin. It’s a dermatologist favourite for body care because it resurfaces uneven texture, clears pores, and boosts skin hydration when formulated correctly.

FAQs
Q: Can I use glycolic acid every day?
A: Start 2–3 times per week. Increase only if your skin tolerates it well.
Q: Does glycolic acid help with ingrown hairs?
A: Yes — it exfoliates around hair follicles, preventing blockages.
Q: Is glycolic acid better than salicylic acid for KP?
A: Glycolic acid resurfaces texture, while salicylic acid targets deeper oil buildup. Both can work together if tolerated.
Q: How do I exfoliate without scrubbing?
A: Use a chemical exfoliant like glycolic acid, which dissolves dead skin cells without friction.
