IYKYK Glycolic + Lactic Acid + Niacinamide Body Wash


Exfoliate. Even. Glow.

Your shower just got upgraded. The IYKYK Glycolic + Lactic Acid + Niacinamide Body Wash is designed to gently exfoliate dead skin, smooth texture, and reveal brighter, more even skin. Because glow doesn’t start with treatments — it starts with the cleanse.


Why This Body Wash Stands Out

Most body washes only clean. This one works harder. Formulated for daily use (AM/PM), it not only purifies but also preps your skin to absorb active treatments better. Skin feels silky and refreshed, not stripped.

This formula also checks all the boxes:

  • Dermatologist tested

  • Sustainable packaging

  • 100% vegan

  • Paraben and sulfate free

  • Fragrance free

  • Cruelty free

  • 12-month shelf life after opening

Star Ingredients & the Science Behind Them

Glycolic Acid

A small-molecule alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), glycolic penetrates deeper into the skin to dissolve dead skin cell bonds and accelerate cell turnover. This results in smoother texture, fewer clogged pores, and a glow boost.

Lactic Acid

Gentler than glycolic, lactic acid exfoliates more superficially, softly removing dead skin while retaining moisture. It’s also a humectant — drawing water into the skin.

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3)

A multitasker. It improves the skin barrier, regulates oil production, diminishes redness, and helps even skin tone. It also supports overall skin resilience.

Bearberry Extract

Contains arbutin, a natural brightening agent that inhibits melanin formation. It helps reduce dark spots and supports an even complexion.


Benefits You’ll Feel & See

  • Gentle but effective exfoliation

  • Better clarity and brightness

  • Smoother texture

  • Even skin tone

  • Skin feels clean without tightness

How to Use

  1. Apply a small amount onto damp skin.

  2. Massage gently all over body.

  3. Rinse thoroughly.

  4. Follow with your favorite IYKYK body oils, moisturizers, or toning creams.

Use daily, morning and night. Because healthy skin is built day by day — starting with your body wash.
