Naturium The Smoother Glycolic Acid Body Lotion — 10% AHA Exfoliating 8 oz, Hydrating Resurfacing Treatment

Naturium The Smoother Glycolic Acid Body Lotion is a resurfacing, hydrating body treatment that uses 10% glycolic acid to exfoliate, even tone, and soften dry, rough skin.

This body lotion pairs a clinical-strength alpha hydroxy acid with rich emollients to resurface texture while replenishing moisture. Designed for body use rather than facial concentrations, the formula targets patchy discoloration, keratosis pilaris–like roughness, and general dullness. Naturium balances the active exfoliant with shea butter and skin-compatible ingredients so you get measurable smoothing effects without an overly stripping feel.

How does this lotion resurface and brighten body skin?

The core active is a high-purity 10% glycolic acid (AHA), which loosens bonds between dry, dead skin cells so they slough away more easily. Over repeated applications this encourages fresher skin to come forward and helps fade uneven pigmentation for a more uniform look.

• 10% glycolic acid for chemical exfoliation and smoother texture
• Shea butter and emollients to restore and lock in moisture
• pH-appropriate formula to support glycolic effectiveness
• Regular use reduces visual roughness and appearance of discoloration

Will this be too harsh for sensitive or dry areas?

While the 10% glycolic concentration is potent, Naturium balances it with moisturizing ingredients to reduce immediate irritation. Start with every-other-day use or a patch test on a small area. If you have highly reactive skin, consult a dermatologist before beginning daily application.

• Recommended for dry, aging, and combination skin types
• Begin gradually: patch test and build tolerance
• Use sunscreen and limit sun exposure while using product and for a week after
• Dermatologist-tested and formulated to be skin compatible

How should I apply the lotion for best results and safety?

Apply to clean, dry skin on the body—legs, arms, chest, or other areas with rough texture—once daily or as tolerated. Avoid broken or compromised skin. Because AHAs increase sun sensitivity, pair this treatment with daily SPF and sun-protective practices.

• Use on body areas with rough patches or discoloration, avoiding open wounds
• Start with small quantities and increase frequency as tolerated
• Follow with broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day
• Store in a cool, dry place and keep the cap closed between uses

What ingredients support the exfoliant and hydration benefits?

Alongside glycolic acid, the lotion contains nourishing emollients like shea butter to maintain skin barrier function and reduce dryness commonly associated with exfoliation. Naturium formulates without parabens, gluten, or animal-derived ingredients, and is largely synthetic-fragrance free for minimized irritation.

• High-purity glycolic acid for controlled AHA exfoliation
• Shea butter and moisturizers to soothe and hydrate post-exfoliation
• Formulated Vegan, Cruelty-Free, Paraben-Free, Gluten-Free
• pH-balanced and dermatologist tested to support safety and effectiveness

Who is this for: Naturium The Smoother Glycolic Acid Body Lotion is intended for adults seeking to improve body texture, soften rough patches, and reduce the look of uneven tone—especially those with dry, combination, or aging skin. If you are new to chemical exfoliation or have very sensitive skin, introduce it gradually and follow sun protection guidance.
