Naturium Glycolic Acid Body Wash 16.9 fl oz — AHA exfoliating cleanser for smoother, softer skin

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

This 16.9 fl oz body wash combines a multi-acid AHA blend with hydrating botanicals to lift away dead skin cells while supporting skin comfort. Designed to be pH appropriate (4.25–4.75) and gentle enough for daily use, the formula works across the body and can be used as a facial cleanser for those who tolerate AHA products. Patch testing is recommended before first use.

How does this body wash exfoliate without over-drying?

The Smoother uses a measured combination of glycolic, lactic, pyruvic, and tartaric acids to loosen bonds between dead skin cells for effective resurfacing. Red algae and other conditioning ingredients help replace moisture so skin feels supple rather than tight after cleansing.

• Glycolic acid for thorough surface exfoliation
• Lactic and pyruvic acids for gentle, supportive resurfacing
• Tartaric acid for enhanced cell turnover support
• Red algae provides hydration and skin-softening benefits

Can I use this every day and on my face?

Yes — the formulation is made to be gentle enough for daily use on body skin and can be used on the face for people accustomed to AHAs. Because potency and skin sensitivity vary, start by using a patch test and introduce it gradually into your routine to gauge tolerance.

• Daily-use formulation with skin-compatible pH (4.25–4.75)
• Suitable for body; facial use recommended only for AHA-tolerant skin
• Begin with alternate-day use if you have sensitive skin
• Follow with sunscreen after facial or daytime AHA use

What skin concerns will this body wash address?

The cleanser targets rough patches, uneven texture, and build-up of dead skin that can make skin look dull or feel bumpy. Regular use helps reveal a smoother surface, improved suppleness, and a more even-feeling skin texture across treated areas.

• Reduces rough, bumpy texture on arms, legs, and torso
• Smooths skin surface and improves softness
• Helps maintain clearer-feeling pores and smoother touch
• Supports ongoing skin-renewal when used consistently

What should I know about safety and formulation?

Naturium formulates this wash to be pH appropriate and free from parabens, gluten, and unnecessary animal testing, with many SKUs also being synthetic-fragrance-free. As with any AHA product, perform a patch test first and avoid combining with other strong actives until you understand your skin’s response.

• pH balanced between 4.25 and 4.75 for AHA efficacy
• Made in the USA, vegan and cruelty-free
• Paraben-free, gluten-free, dermatologist tested
• Patch test advised; avoid mixing immediately with retinoids or strong acids

Who this is for: Naturium The Smoother Glycolic Acid Body Wash is intended for anyone wanting a reliable, science-backed exfoliating cleanser to tackle roughness and uneven texture. It’s a good fit for people seeking a daily-use body cleanser with active AHAs and hydrating support, and for experienced AHA users who want an option that can also double as a facial cleanser. If you have highly reactive or compromised skin, consult a dermatologist before adding AHA treatments to your routine.
