Body Smoothing Routine: 2% Salicylic Acid Gel + 15% Urea Cream

Rough, bumpy skin or stubborn blemishes? Discover the ultimate body routine.

Combine the exfoliating power of our 2% Salicylic Acid Cleansing Gel with the deep, moisture-locking repair of the 15% Urea Cream. Together, they create the perfect targeted treatment to transform your body's texture, clear impurities and restore beautifully smooth skin.

What is This Combination Best For?

• Keratosis Pilaris ('Chicken Skin'): Salicylic acid clears the hair follicles whilst the 15% urea breaks down stubborn keratin build-up, noticeably smoothing the arms, thighs and buttocks.

• Body Acne (Back, chest and shoulders): The cleansing gel purifies pores and controls excess sebum, whilst the urea cream repairs the skin barrier without adding grease, helping to prevent marks or post-blemish discolouration.

• Very Dry & Rough Areas: Perfectly targets flakiness and extreme coarseness on elbows, knees and heels.

Step-by-Step Application Guide:

Step 1: Cleanse & Exfoliate in the Shower (With the 2% Salicylic Acid Gel)

• Application: Apply the gel directly onto dampened skin over the affected areas.

• Leave to Work: Gently massage in circular motions and leave it on for 1 to 2 minutes before rinsing. This allows the oil-soluble beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) to properly penetrate body skin, which is naturally thicker than facial skin.

• Rinse: Rinse thoroughly with plenty of lukewarm water and pat dry with a clean towel, avoiding harsh rubbing.

Step 2: Intensive Hydration & Renewal (With the 15% Urea Cream)

• Application: Immediately after showering, while the skin is still slightly damp, smooth a generous layer of the 15% Urea Cream over rough or blemish-prone areas.

• How it Works: At this concentration, urea acts as a hydro-exfoliant. It binds moisture deep within the skin layers whilst gently loosening the dead skin cells already softened by the cleansing gel.

Recommended Frequency:

• Resistant or highly textured skin: This combined routine can be followed once a day (ideally in the evening).

• Sensitive skin or beginners: Alternate your usage. Use the Salicylic Acid Gel in the shower 2 to 3 times a week, and apply the Urea Cream every evening until your skin builds up tolerance.

Important Tips & Advice:

1. Sun Protection: Both products actively renew the skin's surface layers. If treated areas are exposed to the sun during the day (such as your arms or décolletage), always apply a broad-spectrum body sunscreen.

2. Sensitive Zones: Do not apply this combination to intimate areas, mucous membranes, or skin that is broken, sunburned or irritated.
