What the gurus are saying

Gurus consistently praise this as highly effective for smoothing textured body skin, particularly keratosis pilaris and post-acne marks. The multitasking formula (combining urea, lactic acid, and retinol in one product) earns repeated approval for delivering results without irritation or an unpleasant aesthetic. The recurring strength is its gentle yet potent blend and rich texture that doesn't cake or feel greasy on body hair. All reviewers recommend nightly use and note broad benefits from acne-prone teens to mature skin with crepey texture and sun damage.

"I absolutely love this, and I love the fact that Remedy are taking what were traditional products like exfoliating scrubs, but reformulating them to be super gentle, yet in some ways more effective than their older counterparts. I'm somebody that suffered with a lot of texture on the body and these products have just sorted that. Remedy for Body Bumps is going to be the best smoothing body moisturizer you have ever used. This has silver in here, which is antimicrobial, reducing acne causing bacteria. It's got a blend of exfoliating acids, which is super gentle, but specifically chosen for their ability to target acne scarring and marks. And it's packed full of other ingredients which are going to reduce blackheads and skin congestion. This is great for hyperpigmentation, great for acne. It's just a great allrounder and I think this is one of the few moisturizers that really will work for that teen in your life. If you have somebody who is going through some hormonal breakouts, they might be experiencing some scarring, some hyperpigmentation as a result of it, this is a great option to go for. I still break out and I use this as a way of helping reduce my adult acne and breakouts."

Biggest GLYCOLIC ACID Mistakes - How To Use Glycolic Acid Correctly
"This is the Remedy for Body Bumps. This has a good strength of urea in here which I love. It's also got a touch of lactic acid which is my favorite exfoliator. So this is kind of like a one-stop shop. You don't even need to use glycolic acid alongside this if you don't want. However if you want to dial up the results you can use a glycolic acid alongside this to kind of get maximum outcomes. Use this daily or maybe twice a week to supplement it and by the time summer comes around you will have the smoothest body head to foot."
5⭐ SKIN FIRMING ROUTINE (Ultimate Anti Aging Skincare Routine)
"I use this on the tops of my arms, on the thighs, where I tend to get bodily bumps, texture irregularities. If you have the bumps, this works really, really well. For me, I think this is probably the most effective of the body care treatments that I've ever found. So yeah, I love this."

"If you can get this product easily, make it a part of your everyday, every night routine. So this should be your night lotion. Obviously, they say this can be used twice a day, which means in the morning, but I would never use a product with retinol in the morning. So, nighttime routine, you will have the smoothest, softest skin ever. This for me honestly is a 9 on 10. Fabulous product."

"Remedy for Body Bumps also has urea, one of those functional ingredients paired with a lot of other ingredients with complementary benefits. It has 10% urea in that formula. It's more of a comprehensive product targeted towards more textured treatments on the body as we age and even dry cracked heels, but more comprehensive formula while still incorporating urea."

Keratosis Pilaris? Crepey Skin? New Product Alert from Remedy Science 🚨
"I'm super excited this is for body care. This is essentially formulated for keratosis pilaris but it does so much more. I am so passionate about this product. This product, when we talk about all the products from Remedy, everything is super stacked like we're taking multiple ingredients to solve a singular or many problems. The idea for this product really surrounded keratosis pilaris, which are those scaly red, sometimes pigmented bumps on the arms, on the legs, and sometimes even on the face. They're often associated with eczema, so you really need to use something that is not only exfoliating but also hydrating and can get rid of some of the redness and dark spots that are left behind around the follicles. It's a full body cream. It is very soft, blends, hydrates easily. I do an arm hair test with body products. If it blends and doesn't cling and cake to the arm hair, it's very successful. That is very successful."
Keratosis Pilaris? Crepey Skin? New Product Alert from Remedy Science 🚨
"It blends and doesn't cling and cake to the arm hair, which is a huge win. I don't smell that lactic acid smell, which can be pretty strong. Aesthetically it's great, no film, full body moisturizer, rich cream, doesn't cake. This formula was created with keratosis pilaris, body bumps, body texture, and any type of pigmentation in mind, but I also realized afterwards that this is going to do quite a bit for crepey skin as well. This product has 0.1% retinol encapsulated, 5% lactic acid, and 10% urea all into one formula. Keratosis pilaris and body bumps are increased keratin on the skin that causes that scaliness, and you get some redness because those follicles are plugged by that keratin. That redness is really only treated by retinol. Ingredients that can actually exfoliate those away, we really like ingredients like lactic acid and urea for this."

Keratosis Pilaris? Crepey Skin? New Product Alert from Remedy Science 🚨
"If you do experience that dry flaky skin that we see commonly extremely commonly in our maturing population, this would be a perfect remedy for something like that. To use it, start with once a day, morning or night, because the retinol is encapsulated. Make sure you're wearing sunscreen in the morning if you're going to be out in the sun. This can be really used any time of the year for a lot of the different conditions."
Keratosis Pilaris? Crepey Skin? New Product Alert from Remedy Science 🚨
"I really kept my patience in mind with this one but it really does so much more. When I use it I use it all the way up and down the arms, I use it on my legs because I get like really dry skin, keratosis pilaris type of on my legs. It works really well, just effectively as a moisturizer but it also has all those extra benefits. If you do experience that dry flaky skin that we see commonly in our maturing population, this would be a perfect remedy for something like that. To use it, start using it once a day, you can use it morning or night because the retinol is encapsulated, so whatever one you feel comfortable with, start out only once a day and then definitely make sure you're wearing sunscreen in the morning if you're going to be out in the sun."

"It is a great product if you are looking to brighten up and improve the look of sun damage, photo aging on the backs of the hands, the chest, the sides of the neck, if you have what's called keratosis pilaris, you may find that this particular formulation helps to address some of those visible changes and improve the overall appearance of the skin. It's a really good formula. It doesn't peel, it doesn't leave the skin feeling filmy or greasy. I really liked it."
