Q: does this help with keratosis pilaris?

submitted by kayla - 2 years ago
  • A: Hello there! For KP, we recommend the KP Body Scrub and Mask. Feel free to alternate that with The Perfector as long as you’re patch testing and using sunscreen daily.

    submitted byNaturium - 2 years ago
    Brand expert
  • A: Hey Kayla, Great question! Using salicylic acid is an effective way to help with keratosis pilaris. Naturium The Perfector body wash will gently exfoliate for smoother looking skin!

Q: Should this body wash be used with a loofa? Or is a washrag better? What would be the best "tool" to use with this?

submitted by AM - 2 years ago
  • A: The Body Wash’s may be applied by hand, but we find customers who desire a richer lather enjoy using a loofa. Try both ways and see what feels best to you!

    submitted byNaturium - 2 years ago
    Brand expert
  • A: Hey, Great question! It is a personal choice, washcloths and shower loofahs can harbor mold, germs and bacteria. We recommend to wring out the water and hang in an area to properly dry! Replace frequently for best results! For all your future beauty questions, get real-time answers using the “Chat with a Virtual Beauty Consultant” button, found on every product page.

  • A: I would recommend using a African net cloth if you have one, as they don't hold as much bacteria as loofas and washcloths hold! 🚿 you can get one on Amazon and if you need to breaking it in, boil it.

Q: What percentage of Salicylic Acid is there?

submitted by In - 3 years ago
  • A: For what it's worth, Naturium's marketing video on YouTube says this body wash has 0.5% salicylic.

    submitted byNo Mint Please - 2 years ago
  • A: While we don't disclose our specific ingredient percentages in our proprietary complex, we believe our formula should not irritate your skin, while providing a very high level of performance efficacy.

    submitted byNaturium - 3 years ago
    Brand expert
  • A: I've used this for over 3 months, and found it to be less effective than the Cerave SA Renew cleanser, which is transparent about their salicylic acid strength of 0.5%.

    I have dry skin and acne which makes it hard to find a gentle but effective body wash. Within two weeks my skin looks so much better and my keratosis on my arms is practically gone. No fragrance and a gel like texture. Bottle is large and lasts me about 3-4 months with daily use. Dosen’t dry out skin.

    This body wash was so great for improving my skin. After a few uses my skin felt much softer. On the bottle there is also a small fine printing that says it can also be used as a facial cleanser. I am not too trusting of it working as a facial cleanser so I only use it for that purpose every once and a while (typically once a month) and when I have done so, I have also seen the same results.

    Unfortunately, this product didn't work well for me. After using The Perfector Salicylic Acid Body Wash, I broke out in hives and experienced intense itching that lasted for days. The reaction was severe enough that I had to seek medical attention and was prescribed steroid treatment. I'm disappointed in the product's performance and would caution others with sensitive skin to be careful. Maybe do a patch test before using it extensively.

    This body wash has completely cleared up the breakouts and irritation I used to get from sweating after long runs and workouts. I also love that it's fragrance-free and made without any harsh chemicals. One bottle lasts such a long time too - a great value for the price. If you’re active and struggle with sweat-related skin issues, this is a MUST TRY - highly highly highly recommend!!!!

    I absolutely love this body wash! After just three uses, my skin feels noticeably softer and smoother. I even tried it on my face a few times, and now I’m ready to throw out all my other products, it's that good! The formula is gentle yet effective, leaving my skin refreshed without dryness. This is definitely a staple in my routine, and I’ll be stocking up. AMAZING!

    This product makes my skin itch so bad that my body looks like it has a rash. I have no problem using the murad salicylic acid cleanser though so it’s super weird. Have to return it. I have normal skin that and starting to get acne on my back and chest so I thought this product would help initially.

    I bought this a few months ago only bc it’s unscented. Not to be dramatic but it changed my life. I have horrible psoriasis. I’ve used everything under the sun to help and this is the only non steroid thing that has ever made my psoriasis actually go away. I’m not a doctor and have no idea why it works but it does. My psoriasis are the small patches and when I have time, I let them soak.
