Try: Exuviance Retexturing Treatment, $42

Talk about a body lotion with benefits. Standard moisturizing suspects (vitamin E, shea butter) are coupled with 10 percent glycolic acid, making this a great leave-on exfoliator. Slather it all over your bod anytime skin is superdry and flaky, or to treat keratosis pilaris (aka K.P. or chicken skin). Those unsightly bumps on the backs of your arms pop up when excess keratin blocks the hair follicles; glycolic acid works to keep those follicles clear and your skin bump-free.

Pre-soaked in a combo of both glycolic and salicylic acids, a quick swipe with these pads will keep your bikini-line bump-free. "Glycolic acid dissolves anything that's blocking the hair follicle and causing these bumps," explains Hooper. Use daily, post-showering, in between your waxing or shaving sessions.
