Glycolic acid has long been a staple in facial skincare routines, renowned for its ability to smooth, brighten, and exfoliate. Despite the fact 90% of our skin lies below the neck, we rarely afford it the same level of care, but shoppers have been heaping praise on an affordable Glycolic Acid body treatment designed to target the areas we often put to the back of our mind.
Body skin concerns such as keratosis pilaris (KP), ingrown hairs, rough patches, and discoloration are common, with 9 out of 10 people experiencing them at some point, yet many of us leave these issues untreated. Now, it couldn’t be easier to tackle thanks to an innovative treatment stick from popular skincare brand The INKEY List.
Priced at £15, The INKEY List’s Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Body Stick combines familiar skincare actives including 7% Glycolic Acid to exfoliate surface dead skin cells and help smooth rough, bumpy texture together with Salicylic Acid to help unclog oily pores and improve body skin that’s prone to breakouts and ingrown hairs. The addition of deeply nourishing Shea Butter helps to instantly soften, soothe, and comfort skin, the brand says.

Packaged in an easy-to-use stick, this product can be applied directly to dry skin morning or night, making it convenient for spot-treating trouble areas. Depending on the condition you’re treating determines the frequency of use, though it’s generally recommended to use it a couple of times a week at first to build up a tolerance to the ingredients, before working up to potentially using it twice a day.
