Rida Hair Research Institute Exfoliating Body Soap for Keratosis Pilaris — 4.2 oz Buffing Bar with 10% AHA & Micro Pumice for Smoo

This bar combines chemical and physical exfoliation to soften rough patches and help clear clogged pores on arms, thighs, and back. The formula blends a 10% alpha hydroxy acid concentration with fine pumice particles for dual-action resurfacing that aims to improve skin texture while remaining free of parabens, sulfates, and artificial fragrances. It’s made for routine use by adults seeking a targeted body-cleansing solution that prepares skin for moisturizers and treatments.

How does this soap improve rough, bumpy skin?

The bar uses AHA to gently dissolve bonds between dead skin cells while micro pumice beads physically lift and polish the surface. Regular use helps reduce visible bumps and creates a smoother surface for topical products to absorb better.

• 10% alpha hydroxy acid helps exfoliate surface dead cells.
• Micro pumice beads provide gentle mechanical buffing.
• Combined action targets keratin plugs and textured areas.
• Rinseable bar format is easy to integrate into showers.

Can it help with strawberry legs, ingrown hairs, and razor bumps?

This soap is formulated to address common causes of those concerns by removing excess keratin and smoothing follicle openings. When used prior to shaving or hair removal, it can reduce the appearance of darkened pores and decrease trapped hairs.

• Breaks down keratin buildup that contributes to strawberry legs.
• Exfoliates around hair follicles to free ingrown hairs.
• Soothes skin texture after shaving to minimize bumps.
• Best paired with a hydrating lotion after drying completely.

Is this bar safe for daily use and all skin types?

The formula is designed for regular use but combines active AHA with abrasives, so skin sensitivity varies. Start with every-other-day use to gauge tolerance, then increase frequency if your skin responds well. Avoid using on broken or irritated skin and follow with moisturizer.

• Unisex formula suitable for arms, legs, and back.
• Free of parabens, sulfates, and artificial fragrance.
• Recommend patch test and gradual introduction for sensitive skin.
• Not intended for use on open wounds or severely inflamed areas.

How should I use the buffing bar for best results?

Use in the shower on damp skin, lathering and gently massaging the bar over target areas for 30–60 seconds per zone. Rinse thoroughly, pat skin dry, and follow immediately with a moisturizer to lock in hydration and support skin recovery.

• Apply to damp skin and massage; avoid vigorous scrubbing.
• Rinse well and pat dry; follow with hydrating lotion or cream.
• Use 2–4 times weekly initially; increase if tolerated.
• Store in a dry place between uses to preserve the bar.

Who is this for? This exfoliating soap is intended for adults seeking a targeted body cleanser to address textured skin such as keratosis pilaris, strawberry legs, or frequent razor bumps. It’s suited for those wanting a combined chemical and physical exfoliant in an easy bar format, and for people who prefer products formulated without parabens, sulfates, or added fragrances. If you have very sensitive or compromised skin, perform a patch test and introduce the product gradually; consult a healthcare professional for chronic or severe skin conditions.
