Weightless Body Treatment 2% BHA is unlike any body lotion you may have tried because of its unique skin-smoothing benefits that become visible from the first use. This lightweight yet moisturizing body lotion is a completely non-abrasive, gentle way to shed built-up layers of dead skin, resulting in unbelievably smooth, younger-looking skin from the neck down.
This exfoliant has a pH range of 3.5–3.9.

Works from the first application to visibly make rough, dry skin a thing of the past. Ongoing use banishes dullness and promotes resilient skin that’s touchably soft and ultimately smooth. This is a customer favorite, suitable even for skin prone to keratosis pilaris.

Apply a small amount to clean skin. May be used daily for all-over smoothing, or applied as a spot treatment where needed. Apply this treatment first when using with a moisturizer. For daytime, follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater.

If you have a salicylate allergy, check with your physician before using any products that contain salicylic acid.
