📝 Product Description
Kitsch Glycolic Acid Resurfacing Face and Body Wash Bar is a gentle chemical exfoliant for anyone chasing a smoother, brighter complexion. The 0.7% glycolic acid sweeps away dull, dead cells and clears congested-looking texture, while aloe and oat keep it comfortable.
Kitsch formulates it for first-time AHA users with a low-irritant approach, and it lathers into a crisp cucumber and eucalyptus scent. One plastic-free bar handles both face and body, and it travels without spills or leaks.
💡 How to Use
Massage the bar between your hands or directly onto damp skin for a rich lather. Leave on for at least one minute, then rinse. Sensitive skin: start two to three times a week and build up. Normal skin can wash daily once acclimated. Always patch test first, and apply sunscreen daily, since AHAs increase sun sensitivity.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How often should you use a glycolic acid body wash?
Start two to three times a week if you're new to acids, then work up to daily once skin adjusts. Scale back if anything feels irritated.
Is it good for keratosis pilaris or strawberry legs?
Glycolic acid body care is popular for the look and feel of rough, bumpy areas, including KP-prone and strawberry-legs texture. It's a cosmetic exfoliating cleanser, not a medical treatment, and persistent KP may still need moisturizer or a dermatologist's guidance.
Can I use it on my face?
Yes, if your skin tolerates it. Patch test first, avoid the eye area, and start slowly, especially if your face is dry, recently shaved, or already using retinoids or other acids.
Glycolic acid or salicylic acid — which do I need?
Glycolic is an AHA that resurfaces the surface for texture, tone, and brightness. Salicylic is a BHA that works inside the pore for oily, breakout-prone skin. This bar is glycolic, for smoothness and glow.
Will it dry out my skin?
It's made with a low-irritant approach, plus aloe and oat to cleanse without stripping. If skin feels tight, use it less often and follow with moisturizer. And because AHAs raise sun sensitivity, wear sunscreen.
