KERAPIL Salicylic Acid Body Wash Unscented (16 fl oz x2) — 2% BHA + Lactic AHA, Gentle Exfoliating Moisture‑Boost

KERAPIL Salicylic Acid Body Wash is an unscented, dual-action exfoliating cleanser that combines BHA and AHA to gently smooth rough, bumpy skin and help reduce body blemishes without leaving skin dry.

This body wash blends salicylic acid with lactic acid, ceramides and plant-derived soothing agents to cleanse pores, loosen dead skin cells and support a softer, more even surface on arms, legs and back. It’s formulated for daily use on body areas prone to keratosis pilaris-like texture, body acne and rough patches. The fragrance-free formula aims to be gentle while still delivering chemical exfoliation and skin-conditioning ingredients in a rinse-off format.

How does this body wash exfoliate without stripping moisture?

KERAPIL uses a two-pronged acid approach: salicylic acid (a BHA) penetrates and helps clear pores, while lactic acid (an AHA) aids surface exfoliation and mild hydration. Ceramides and emollients help preserve the skin’s barrier so cleansing doesn’t equal dehydration.

• 2% salicylic acid to support pore exfoliation and unclogging.
• Lactic acid for gentle surface smoothing and mild moisturization.
• Ceramides, jojoba oil and aloe to protect and soften skin after cleansing.

Will it help rough, bumpy areas like keratosis pilaris?

The formulation targets the common texture concerns that cause roughness and small bumps by loosening and removing excess dead skin. Regular use can visibly improve the feel and look of affected areas, while the moisturizing components reduce tightness often associated with exfoliation.

• Dual-action acids address both surface build-up and blocked pores.
• Moisturizing actives reduce post-exfoliation dryness and flaking.
• Rinse-off format makes it easy to include in daily shower routines.

Is this product suitable for acne-prone body skin and sensitive skin types?

Designed for a range of skin types, the unscented formula minimizes potential irritants for sensitive skin while salicylic acid helps manage blemish-prone areas on the body. Patch testing is advised for very reactive skin, and frequency can be adjusted (every other day) if irritation occurs.

• Fragrance-free to reduce irritation risk for sensitive skin.
• Balanced acid levels intended for body, not delicate facial skin unless advised by a professional.
• Contains soothing extracts like green tea and aloe to calm skin after cleansing.

How should I use it in my routine for best results?

Use in the shower on wet skin, lathering and allowing the product to remain on the skin briefly before rinsing to let the acids work. Follow with a body moisturizer to lock in hydration and support barrier repair, especially on arms and legs.

• Apply to wet skin, massage into lather, leave 30–60 seconds, then rinse thoroughly.
• Start with once daily or every other day; increase frequency as tolerated.
• Follow with a hydrating body lotion or ceramide-rich moisturizer for optimal results.

Who is this for: KERAPIL Salicylic Acid Body Wash is aimed at people seeking an unscented, rinse-off exfoliant to improve rough texture, body acne or keratosis pilaris-like bumps. It suits those who prefer chemical exfoliation over physical scrubs and who want a product made in the USA with moisturizing support. Avoid using on broken or severely irritated skin; consult a dermatologist if you have a history of high sensitivity or are using other strong topical treatments.
