AmLactin Daily Nourish Body Lotion, 12% Lactic Acid, 14.1 oz | 12% lactic acid body lotion exfoliates and moisturizes dry skin to help reveal softer, smoother daily hydration.

Starting with the good, I am really pleased. I (61f) had been using The Ordinary 5% lactic acid drops on my face, and saw subtle improvement in surface texture. I thought, ok, I don't have any irritation with this, so let's try amping up the percentage. Test patching with this 12% product was ok. Some mild pinprickling - not burning -which is what I expected, and only lasts about a half hour. No rash, no roughness, and the faint pinpricks tell me it's penetrating to do the work. After about a week using it, I'm really liking what I see, and the price doesn't hurt at all. Having said that... I am not what anyone would call "scent sensitive". I wear perfumes, don't have any allergies, headaches, or reactions. But man, this has a smell all its own. It's just, ugh. Like you left yogurt rotting in a rubber glove. And you can't get any closer to the source of the smell than on your own face. It doesn't seem to fade much, either. I could still smell it quite clearly by the end of the day when I put it on in the morning. I actually had my friend sniff me. Closer. Ok, now closer... She practically had her nose pressed up against my cheek when she said, "Oh, ok, now I think I'm smelling it." So it's not like it's stinky to anyone else. But again, nobody smells your own face more clearly than you do, and even at the end of the day it was very noticeable to me. So I do have to knock a star off for that. Having said all that? Still gonna keep using it, because it really does seem to be doing a nice job smoothing out fine surface crepeyness on my face, and plumping/hydrating. Maybe at some point that particular receptor will burn out in my nose and I'll stop noticing that smell. I really hope so, because I rarely see such nice results in such an inexpensive product. (edit) Had to come back and edit this to give it that last star. I'm calling this User Error. More is not better here, and when I used a little less and massaged that in thoroughly, the smell was much, much less, and then really did fade away to nothing in about an hour. I guess applying too much to absorb easily on your face would naturally make it sit there all day on the surface.

I’ve been using AmLactin Daily Nourish Therapeutic Body Lotion, and I can definitely see why it’s so highly recommended. I first heard about it from a dermatologist I follow on Instagram, who speaks very highly of it, so I decided to give it a try. The 12% lactic acid gently exfoliates dead skin while deeply moisturizing, and the results have been amazing. After just a short time, my arms and legs look noticeably smoother, softer, and have a healthy glow that I wasn’t getting from regular body lotion. I love that it exfoliates without any scrubbing, making it easy to incorporate into my routine. The only downside is the scent. It has a strong ammonia-like smell when you first apply it, which isn’t pleasant. Thankfully, the odor fades once the lotion dries and a little time has passed, so it hasn’t been a dealbreaker for me. Overall, the results far outweigh the temporary smell. My skin has never looked or felt better, and I’ll definitely be adding this to my daily skincare routine. If you’re dealing with dry, rough skin and want smoother, glowing skin, this lotion is absolutely worth trying.

Its got a strong smell, but it fades after a few minutes. Smells kind of like a perm. The smell doesn't bother me too much but it is there. I still give it 5 stars because of how great my skin looks after regular use. Its night and day. Its smoother and has less darks spots, and looks younger. I've had one too many sunburns but this has taken years off the appearance of my arms, and completely erased my KP as well. Layer it with Gold Bond Retinol body lotion and you'll get amazing results FAST.

This lotion is very effective and delivers noticeable results. After about three weeks of consistent use, my skin felt significantly softer, smoother and well nourished thanks to the 12% lactic acid formula. It absorbs well and works great as an overnight moisturizer, especially for dry areas. The only downside is the slightly sour, medicinal odor that lingers after application, which may not be for everyone. Because of that, I prefer using it at night. Overall, the performance is strong and the results are visible with continued use, making it a solid option for dry skin despite the scent.

I’ve been using this lotion to help with rough, bumpy skin, and I’m very happy with the results. After using it consistently, the bumps have improved a lot and my skin feels much smoother. I also really like that it has no strong fragrance, which makes it comfortable to use every day. The lotion absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave my skin feeling greasy or sticky. Overall, this has worked really well for me, and I’m very pleased with the results.

This stuff works to soften my skin and exfoliates. The smell isn’t great but it works. I don’t recommend using after shaving your legs as it burned mine. I only use it for rough patches on my legs when needed. Definitely worth it for exfoliation and soft skin.

Pros: ACTUALLY WORKS! Doesn't sting my skin (some others may have more sensitive skin, though). Cons: Smell is "eh" at best and sometimes there's a hint of an ammonia type smell, but it dissipates pretty quick. Takes a bit to rub in. I figured I would give this a try and wasn't disappointed. I've struggled with dry skin for my whole life (super flaky and scaly skin at the worst, like no amount of scrubbing would get the flakes off - I believe it's a mild form of ichthyosis). I've tried the oatmeal lotions, the daily moisturizer lotions, the bulk (I'll drown you in moisture), Aveeno, Lubriderm, Aquaphor, Suave, etc. Nothing helped get rid of it. There would be relief (less itching after showers, temporary appearance improvement), but it wouldn't actually get the scales or flakes to LEAVE. I saw another review (I think for the intensive version rather than the daily) that showed the same kind of skin flakiness I have and an actual improvement. Same active ingredients (didn't want to pay THAT price), and I figured I would try to actually apply each day to REALLY give it a chance. Tried it on my arms every day and the flakes really started lifting up after a few days, and there were fewer and fewer as it went on. I moved to my legs and other parts of my body after that and I'm telling you, it's crazy how the right tool for the job is true here. It is a bit oily or greasy in a way, but if you take the time to rub it in, it's not really an issue - I haven't seen any effects on my clothes. My skin has never felt so soft and like regular skin, I finally get to feel normal! Everyone's skin is different, so your mileage may vary, but this is going on subscribe and save for me.

I’m in my 50s, and my skin has become much drier over the last few years. I started using AmLactin as part of my daily skincare routine, and I’m really happy with the results. I apply it after my shower, and my skin feels much softer and stays moisturized much longer than with the lotions I used before. The rough, flaky patches on my legs have improved, and my skin looks healthier overall. It does have a light scent when you first apply it, but it fades quickly. For anyone dealing with very dry skin, especially as we get older, I think this lotion is definitely worth trying. I’ll keep buying it.

This stuff is amazing.

BEST OFF ! Peau éclatante, hydratée, lisse et belle ! Teint unifié !! Ravie ravie d’avoir découvert ce merveilleux produit ! Il n’a pas de parfum donc sent un peu le défrisant pour cheveux (à faible dose). Mais qu’importe, le produit est trop bon. !

V. Good for moisturising your skin

Love this body lotion! It moisturises without being greasy and leaves your body super soft. It has no fragrance so it is suitable for my extremely sensitive skin . I've tried other body lotions from the pharmacy but either they had fragrance or they were too greasy . It has been only a month but I can already see a remarkable improvement in my skin condition.

I have dry skin and this lotion greatly helps me. Its very moisturizing but it doesn’t have a pleasant scent. Aside from the scent its a very good moisturizer.
