GlyMed Plus Refining Body Scrub with AHAs

GlyMed Plus Refining Body Scrub with AHAs is a dual-action exfoliating scrub that works on two levels at once, using both chemical and physical exfoliants to smooth rough texture, clear congested skin, and leave the body feeling genuinely soft. The formula blends lactic acid, glycolic acid, and malic acid with apricot seed powder, jojoba esters, and luffa fruit for a thorough yet balanced exfoliation that also replenishes moisture rather than stripping it. A blend of spearmint, peppermint, clove, and ginger essential oils gives each use a distinctly invigorating, spa-like scent experience.

Key Benefits

Smooths rough, uneven skin texture Glycolic acid and lactic acid dissolve the bonds holding dead skin cells to the surface, while apricot seed powder and luffa fruit physically buff away the buildup that leaves skin feeling rough.

Hydrates as it exfoliates Lactic acid doubles as a humectant, drawing moisture into the skin while it exfoliates, and aloe vera leaf juice soothes and replenishes so skin never feels tight or dry after rinsing.

Helps clear bumpy, congestion-prone skin Glycolic acid penetrates pores to loosen debris and smooth the surface, making this scrub effective for keratosis pilaris, bacne, and other forms of body congestion.

Conditions and softens Sweet almond oil and jojoba esters deposit a lightweight layer of nourishment during the massage step, supporting a soft, conditioned feel without a greasy finish.

Calms while it refines Chamomile flower extract and willow bark extract work together to soothe irritation and support a more balanced skin response, making this scrub suitable even for skin that tends to react.

If your body skin is rough, dull, or prone to bumps, whether from keratosis pilaris, ingrown hairs, or chronic dryness, this scrub addresses all of it in a single step. It is a strong fit for anyone who wants the thoroughness of a physical scrub paired with the deeper resurfacing that AHAs provide, without the harshness of abrasive-only formulas.

This is also the right choice before any kind of body treatment, including spray tans and self-tanners, where an even, prepped canvas makes a real difference in the result. If dry, flaky skin on elbows, knees, feet, or legs is a recurring concern, regular use of this scrub will visibly improve those areas over time.

Because the formula includes moisturizing and soothing ingredients alongside the exfoliants, it works well for skin that has found traditional scrubs too harsh or drying. It is not formulated for use on the face.

For dry elbows, knees, and feet, apply a slightly thicker amount and let it sit for 30 to 60 seconds before massaging, giving the AHAs a little extra contact time before you rinse. This also works beautifully as a dry rub before body treatments or as a prep step before self-tanner or spray tan applications for a smoother, more even result.

Apply: Emulsify with a small amount of water to create a light foam, then massage onto the body using circular motions for up to one minute.
