Our take

Body breakouts usually get either a harsh scrub or a plain wash that does nothing. This one is a registered anti-acne cleanser that foams into a citrusy jelly, clears pores with salicylic acid and gently resurfaces with AHA and PHA, all on a mild, vegan, SLES-free base with soothing botanicals. Best for back-and-chest acne and body texture; it is fragranced and exfoliating, so sensitive skin should ease in. On real acne actives in a gentle jelly wash it stands out.

Worth knowing

  • Contains fragranceIt uses a citrus fragrance, flagged by reviewers and safety screens, so very sensitive skin should note it.
  • Exfoliating activesWith salicylic and lactic acids it exfoliates, so start slowly and follow with sunscreen on exposed skin.
