SMOOTH SKIN STARTS IN THE SHOWER.

Meet your new shower essential: a dual-action body scrub that does more than just exfoliate — it transforms rough, bumpy, dull skin. Powered by 10% glycolic acid, this formula breaks down built-up keratin and dead skin cells, while finely-ground volcanic pumice buffs away dry flakes to instantly reveal softer, smoother skin.

Designed to tackle those hard-to-treat spots — like keratosis pilaris, body breakouts, and even areas prone to ingrown hairs — this scrub works on multiple levels. And thanks to sodium hyaluronate, it hydrates while it exfoliates, so your skin feels replenished, not stripped.

Created by Dr. Pimple Popper. Body-glow approved. Add to your routine and get glowing.

  • Dual-action exfoliation: chemical (glycolic acid) + physical (pumice)
  • Softens keratin buildup and unclogs pores
  • Smooths rough, dry, bumpy skin — especially arms, thighs, and back
  • Helps prevent ingrown hairs and improve texture over time
  • Hydrates and soothes with sodium hyaluronate
  • Gentle enough for regular use, tough enough to deliver results

Glycolic Acid Body Scrub is part of the Body Smoothing System.

Glycolic Acid Body Lotion

Exfoliate and lock in moisture to smooth and soften


From Sandra Lee, MD

AKA Dr. Pimple Popper

It’s very important to not only exfoliate your face, but also your body. I recommend using a gentle AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) like glycolic acid – it’s an extremely effective ingredient to help smooth dry, rough, bumpy skin.


INGREDIENT

Glycolic Acid


DEFINITION

A powerhouse exfoliating AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) that effortlessly breaks up and sweeps away dead skin build up. As the smallest molecule size of all the AHA’s, glycolic acid is able to penetrate deep into skin to really get the job done.

USES

Exfoliates skin's dull outer layers to minimize the look of fine lines, even tone, smooth and soften texture.

Pumice


DEFINITION

A lightweight powder made from ground volcanic rock that's been used in skincare for thousands of years.

USES

Exfoliates and polishes dull, rough body skin, and can even lightly remove excess hair.

INGREDIENT

Sodium Hyaluronate


DEFINITION

A type of hyaluronic acid (a humectant found naturally in the body) that's been stabilized to protect from oxidation. Penetrates deeper than hyaluronic acid due to its smaller molecular weight.

USES

Penetrates into the deeper layers of the skin to hydrate, support collagen, and smooth the look of lines and wrinkles.

Glycolic Acid Body Scrub

Customers said this glycolic acid scrub effectively treats bumpy skin, keratosis pilaris, and ingrown hairs. "Within a few days of use, the bumps I've had on my legs for years started diminishing." Many report immediate smoothness and long-term results. Some noted a recent formula change reduced grittiness and effectiveness.

A Lifesaver

I had been diagnosed with Darriers. I was prescribed steroid creams which only minimally helped with overall body itching and sores. This product solely relieved all symptoms after using it for approx 1 month while improving my skin with each use. A lifesaver for anyone suffering with similar skin issues. No more sores, itching and an added bonus of better skin texture. Amazing!

Awfully rough

If I was scrubbing the bottom of my feet I could tolerate this scrub. While I appreciate that it is a scrub, it is painful for me to use, so I diluted it into another more sensitive scrub.

Great price and Amazing Product

Perfect for those small pimples on arms/back. After 2 weeks what a difference!! NO reaction at all. Now to keep myself from getting more I use it every other day. Dr Pimple Popper's products work great for most skin types.

Wonderful!

My husband's KP has gotten significantly better! His arms are so smooth now! It's almost completely gone. I don't know if it will ever be gone, but it sure has made it so much better.

KP

I have had bumps on the back of my arms for most of my life. In the last few years it has started to spread down my legs. I have been using this for about 3 weeks, every other day, and theres a remarkable difference. My skin feels great and looks much better!

If I only got ONE product...THIS would be it!

I ran out of this, and my skin took a turn down Adolescent Alley! I quickly re-ordered it, and even with very sensitive skin, I can use this several times a week! I use this on my face, chest, and back! I wish I could use the Glycolic Acid lotion on my chest because I noticed a major difference on my sun damaged/scarred skin. However, I did get some small, widespread vesicles that made me want to mess with them. But the skin improved dramatically!!!

Leaves skin supersoft even after one use

I don't have keratosis pilaris, but I use this as a body exfoliator for my arms and legs. I notice the difference as soon as I step out of the shower! I use this about once a week and love the results I get.

Helps So Much

Very hydrating and feels great on your skin. I will buy again for sure. I love the body polish as well, it is a touch abrasive, but it almost needs to be

This seriously works!!

I bought this about a month ago for my wife who has had bumpy skin/ingrowns on the back of her arms and thighs forever. I can't believe it but her skin started to get smoother just a few days after the first use. She was shocked to feel her arms one day and notice that it wasn't bumpy! I've started to use it for areas on my body that are more prone to acne and ingrowns and I'm excited to see my skin finally get more clear too!

Nothing worked until this

I've had keratosis pilaris for my entire life, on the back of my arms, knees, and under my bum. Trust me when I say I have tried everything specifically for it. This stuff is sheer magic. The scrub is no joke! It is a bit pricey, but my skin looks and feel phenomenal because of it. 10/10 recommend

GRATEFUL!!

A few years ago, I started noticing bumps on my thighs, legs and the tops of my feet. My Derm stated that what I was seeing was Stucco Keratosis. I was prescribed different creams and lotions; some over the counter and some prescription only - all were expensive and none worked. Having been a fan of Dr. Lee for some time, I thought I would give the Glycolic Acid Scrub and Lotion. After only a short time, I have noticed a significant change for the better! With shorts weather so close, not seeing those awful bumps has me ecstatic! It's a great price point, it smells nice and it works!! Thank you, thank you, thank you Dr. Lee!!

Where has this been all my life?

I've been asking my dermatologist for years what to do about my scaly, sun-damaged legs and arms. I tried laser on a few spots, but it isn't sustainable as I have so many. This scrub has made a huge difference! My 66 year-old legs are now soft and even and I don't feel or look like a lizard anymore!

Does not lather as much as directions claim so be aware but product is amazing! Ive been using it for a few weeks and have seen some lightening of my strawberry legs

More bubble and suds needed

I wish it would lather more. In order to use it on my back i have to use it with a luffa on a stick. I end up using a lot of the body scrub because i have a big back and the soap doesnt lather much. I end up going Though the whole tube rather quickly and its not cheap. It does work though, just not for me. I need a body wash with more substance.

Worth writing a review for...

I don't usually write reviews for products, but this product was a game changer for me. I wear tights most of the year for work and have (had!) tons of bumps, some in grown hairs, and super dry, flaky skin. After the first use, I noticed a difference. With that success, I moved to my arms where I have some really mild bumps - also instant improvement. I use it twice a week on my legs and once a week on my arms and it seems to be the right interval to keep me smooth. On a more personal note, I was in Vegas a couple weeks ago, and after using this product for the last couple months and then shaving - my skin was the absolutely smoothest it has been since I was a teenager. I love this product. As others noted, it is granular and has a low lather, but it works!

Amazing

I have had really bad keratosis pilaris on my legs for years, and no matter what I tried I couldnt get rid of it. After just 4 uses of this product, my legs look significantly better!! Honestly I noticed a difference just after the very first use! This product is a miracle. I am so grateful to have found it. I will admit I was a little skeptical at first that it would work and it is a little bit on the pricier side, but I figured if it works, the results would be priceless. I highly recommend for anyone with keratosis pilaris
