What the gurus are saying

Experts split sharply on this glycolic acid exfoliating lotion. Some loved it, particularly praising Naturium's body care line as the best value available at the price point. Others actively disliked it and found the product underperformed significantly. The divide is genuine and stark, suggesting that skin type or personal chemistry may matter more than the formula itself in determining results.

"I loved it. I do particularly love their body care range and I think it's the best you can get for the price."

"It doesn't feel like it absorbs. It just kind of sits on top of your skin like a film, and there have been times where after I've taken a shower I'm sitting on the couch and I'll go to scratch the back of my neck or my shoulder or something and the lotion just pills up and it'll be all over my sweater or my top. It's kind of horrible, I kind of hate this product. That being said, I do feel like it works, the glycolic acid definitely does exfoliate my skin nicely, but the formula is just so gross that I can't. I have one more squeeze tube left of it, I'm going to finish it up, but I don't like it, it smells terrible and it pills, and I would not recommend it, to be honest with you."
