Review Highlights
Read All ReviewsWORKS GREAT, SMELLS GOOD
Helps smooth my bumpy skin better than any other product and does not smell bad (unlike many other glycolic acid lotions that smell like sour milk). My skin looks 10x better with this lotion.Read More
CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT THIS LOTION!
I have been using this lotion for over a year now and can not be without it. It is the only thing I’ve found that works on my legs and arms for bumpy, itchy skin.Read More
GAME CHANGER!
AMAZING! Bought it for strawberry legs and after 3 weeks I have seen an improvement. A bonus side affect is that the hair on my legs is so much thinner and softer than before. I used to have to shave every single day and I would still get a "5 o'clock" shadow by bedtime on my legs. I could probably skip a day shaving now. This benefit alone is worth the money for me and I will continue purchasing this product!Read More
On clean skin, apply a generous amount of Glycolic Acid Body Lotion all-over the body, focusing on dry patches or areas prone to keratosis pilaris. Reapply as needed. For best results, use daily.
For added exfoliation and smoothing, we recommend using with Glycolic Acid Body Scrub.

Glycolic Acid Body Lotion
Exfoliate and lock in moisture to smooth and soften
From Sandra Lee, MD
AKA Dr. Pimple Popper
If you want to tackle dry, bumpy, keratosis pilaris-prone skin, it’s essential to moisturize – but it’s equally important to exfoliate. My Glycolic Acid Body Lotion is formulated with both alpha hydroxy acid shea butter — so it’s really a two-in-one solution.

Customers said this lotion effectively targets dry skin, bumps, and keratosis pilaris, with many seeing results in days. "Works wonders in my arms. Absorbs fast." However, scent preferences vary widely - some love it while others find it overwhelming. Several noted pump bottle issues and pilling. Best results when paired with the scrub.

I feel like Ive tried everything possible for my keratosis pilaris especially now that having 2 babies seems to have made it worse. Im 32 and used to only have it on my arms but now its all over my legs down my forearms on my back lower back and shoulders too. I was SO HOPEFUL this would work we have a pool and Im always busy running after littles so its much more comfortable to be in a tank top and shorts but Im so embarrassed of how I look. I paired this with the scrub also and will continue to use it but after over a month and no change I am sad and disappointed per usual
L
Too thick
J
I really liked the lotion and my skin feels great but as others expressed the pump does not work. Having to take out the pump just to get lotion seems ridiculous for a $35 lotion. Would be great if it would be in the same bottle as the scrub.
M
Excellent product I can not say enough good about this lotion it really works and makes a difference
J
Works great! About 7 times is all I have used it and have seen a difference already!
J
Lots of keratoses around my neck and this helps. When will the glycolic acid body scrub be available again?
T
Leaves my skin feeling amazingly soft. Especially knees and elbows.
A
I miss the old scent. This new floral scent is definitely not something I enjoy. Its very overwhelming. Despite the amazing results Im not sure Ill repurchase
P
My teenage girls faces are all cleared up. Everything I got for them works amazing. Thanks for the amazing product!
B
I love the lotion!!! It smells amazing but it works even better! Ive had rough bumpy skin my entire life but by using this lotion has made a huge difference. Id love a bigger bottle.
M
Ive struggled with chicken skin since I was in elementary school and doctors couldnt help me. But as soon as I started to use SLMDs kit, my skin felt smoother and the appearance of the bumps have minimized! My confidence has come back and Im able to wear tank tops and shorts without feeling insecure :)
K
Does not work
A
Oh i love this product helps my bumpy skin tremendously
Z
I've actually been using this lotion after I shave my head, I'm bald, to prevent shave bumps and razor burn. My head is silky smooth and absolutely no bumps! A forewarning though, it does sting a bit at first after shaving but that goes away really fast.
C
This product worked well for the bumps on my arms and is hydrating, but I hate that it has fragrance. The fragrance is pretty low down on the product list, but it still bothers me that it's there. Overall it is a good product and does what it is advertised to do.
S
Ive tried a lot of different lotions, serums, and scrubs on those stubborn little bumps on the back of my arms and nothing worked. I started using this and my arms are so smooth! Thanks so much! I highly recommend it!
O
This is the best body lotion Ive ever tried/own. I use this lotion after the body scrub, and the KP I had on my thighs completely went away. It smells amazing too!
L
I love this lotion. It totally exfoliates your skin and leaves it very soft without making it sticky or clammy feeling! And I have terrible KP, and sensitive skin, and its crazy dry. I just wish it came in a bigger size!
A
Great Lotion, not for Super sensitive dry skin tho.
K
Ive never left a review for a skin care product before, but wanted to share how much my girlfriend and I love this product! Shes been using this Moisturizer for the bumps on her arms and hates my ashy, dry legs so kept trying to get me to use this on them. I didnt want to because I was worried that it could fade the tattoo on my calf. I sent a DM to SLMD and they responded within an hour letting me know it would be safe to use on my tattoo. Thanks for such a quick response! Ive been using this whenever Ive worn shorts this summer. It works great and I even feel like my legs are permanently less dry... the only reason Im leaving this review now is because I used it all up and my gf made me come here to buy her a new one!
D
I had areas of sun damaged skin that were so dry that nothing worked. After 2 days of using SLMD body lotion my skin is smoothing out and feels more supple. Thank you Dr Lee
M
Helps smooth my bumpy skin better than any other product and does not smell bad (unlike many other glycolic acid lotions that smell like sour milk). My skin looks 10x better with this lotion.
D
Ive tried a lot of different lotions and exfoliants for KP but none that have truly impressed me. I noticed a difference after a few days of using this product. The glycolic acid versus salicylic acid in other products makes a huge difference. 100% recommend for ingrown hairs, KP, bumps buy it!
M
It actually reduces the bumps on my arms due to Keratosis pilaris. So much smoother. Im anxious to see if it works as good in the warmer months. Ive started using it on my legs too. So far, Im really pleased with the results Im seeing!
S
One of the best body lotions I have ever used.
I
I'm so sorry to say I'm disappointed with this lotion. My skin is smooth after use (that's hasn't really been an issue in the past) but the red pockets in my skin are still very present and have shown no change after nearly daily use, for more than 3 weeks. I partnered the lotion with the scrub as suggested, but the results simeimoly aren't there. I'm sure it has to do more with my skin than the product, but based on my experience I wouldn't recommend at this time. Note: I'm still willing to try other products in the SLMD family. Just because it didn't work for me however, doesn't mean you may have a different experience.
S
Immediate results! My skin feels great and I have much fewer ingrown hairs.
N
Smells bad..You put on.Your skin exfoliates. dead skin everywhere and youll need to shower again.
M
Lovely body lotion
K
After using it about a week I have noticed a difference. My legs are much smoother. I still have some bumps but they are slowly going away. Dont use just after shaving!!! I took of a star for the smell! I wish it was unscented
P
I love it! I need a bucket of it though. The current amount runs out quickly.
A
Smells great, has a lovely texture, and is clearing up my skin. Win, win, win!
