Zara McDermott recently revealed a skincare product that helped her get rid of body acne, a common source of frustration and low self-esteem. Sharing her discovery on Instagram, she praised Naturium’s Urea 5% Body Serum for effectively clearing the bumps and spots on her skin, which cost £24.
This lightweight serum, supplemented with gentle exfoliation, quickly improved Zara’s skin condition, thanks to its key ingredient urea. Urea supports the skin barrier, deeply hydrates, and aids in cell turnover to reduce rough texture and flaky patches.
Ideal for post-shower use, the milky and lightweight formula of the serum prevents that sticky, uncomfortable feeling often left by traditional moisturizers. Particularly beneficial for individuals with dry skin, eczema, and psoriasis, this serum provides intense hydration, especially during colder weather.
Another effective ingredient for treating body acne is salicylic acid, found in Q+A’s Salicylic Acid Body Wash priced at £6.50. This body cleanser exfoliates, brightens, and smoothens the skin, with calming ingredients like white willow bark, aloe vera, and green tea.
CeraVe’s SA Smoothing Cleanser, developed with dermatologists, is another great option at £14.50. It targets rough, bumpy, or dry skin conditions like keratosis pilaris, combining salicylic acid for gentle exfoliation with ceramides and hyaluronic acid to maintain moisture and protect the skin barrier.
