Mario Badescu AHA Botanical Body Wash Moisturizing, Clarifying and Gentle Exfoliating Wash for Brighter, Softer and Smoother Skin, Body Soap Infused with Glycolic Acid & Fruit Enzymes

I think I might use this body wash for the rest of my life. Really, why has this not gone viral? Mario Badescu is an oldie, but a goodie.First of all, I have sensitive, eczema prone skin. I have struggled (and wasted so much money) to find a body wash that checks all of my boxes. This one does the trick. It exfoliates very gently leaving my skin smooth and glowy. It does not dry me out or cause any irritation. I even use it on my face (yes, the instructions say to avoid your face, but dude, glowy and smooth from head to toe over here).The lather is super sudsy and the scent is subtle, but pleasantly herbaceous/floral.Also a very reasonable price. I highly recommend trying this body wash.

I have been using this product and the face toners for a really long time; I have to be careful because my immune system is fragile due to chemo. Some of the things I really love and desperately wanted to try (some ingredients just landed on the list of potential reactors so it's a real shame because at least while something terrible is going on; some treats to perk up your mood is always welcome. The last order, the bottle was smaller, but that wasn't the problem. It was in its own bag but more than half of the contents had already leaked out into the bag and plastic bag it arrived in. I could not use that as I have no idea who. how. or where any cross contamination could have occurred. Also shipping can sometimes make your product arrive a bit knocked about. I didn't get anywhere with Amazon (which was odd because they shipped and sold the product...and I have photos). Odd now I have to keep my excitement in check, hold my breath and wait to see what greets me in the boxes or envelopes. Excellent job!!!! It came in a large box; in its own bag (the large size) zero leakage and the shampoo & conditioner I also ordered in that box.... different story. Thank you, Amazon! Thank you, Mario Badescu. Very happy sick nurse. Oh, this body wash transforms dull, uneven skin, nourishes it and never feels stripped after my shower. Very light scent, lathers with just a touch of product, you do not need more that maybe two quarter sized dollops. My skin feels so clean, and it has certainly helped with my overall skin tone and integrity.

I've had issues with bacne since puberty and would say I have normal/acne prone skin. I'm 22 and I've tried many things to help with my acne but never really had any results. I have to emphasize that anyone using this product should be aware that there is fragrance and that it should be used carefully. If you have sensitive skin, you may or may not want to avoid this - however, since the product is a wash-away product it may be okay.I do not have a before/after picture because nothing ever worked for my back and I was skeptical. Now I regret that.After using for the first time, I had some mild dryness and itching on my back. This wasn't anything too bad and easily solved using my CeraVe moisturizer. For the next few weeks I had little to no dryness on my back. That being said, I used this product two to three times a week in the shower using a back loofah and made sure to moisturize. Every other shower, I would wash my body with Dove sensitive skin body wash. Now that my skin seems to be well-adjusted to the product, I am planning to use it more often in the shower and see if my skin improves even more.As far as results go, I am extremely pleased with my skin. Not all of my acne is gone on my back but it is SIGNIFICANTLY reduced. My skin feels smooth for the first time since I was 13. I am happy and much more confident. Is this product a holy grail? Not necessarily ... but to me it has started me off on the right foot. Once I finish this bottle I do not think I will purchase another, but instead see if an AHA body lotion is better for me. I think I would have had even better results if had drunk water frequently and tried to eat more cleanly (something I meant to do but failed at!).When I first saw the ingredients list, I grimaced. These ingredients are not the best for you. Personally, I would not plan to use this long-term but I think it's worth a shot for fellow bacne sufferers. Just be careful and moisturize often.UPDATE: This stuff seriously helped my acne issue so much. After over a year of use I’m finally out of product. I wouldn’t say it’s right for everyone, but I’ve really enjoyed it. I’ve used this coupled with an aha body lotion and my back is COMPLETELY clear. If I do get a breakout, it’s a small one that is much more mild. I’m free of irritation. My back hasn’t been back to normal since puberty. I’m so glad and will definitely be continuing this or another AHA body wash in the future.

Smells refreshing doesn't dry out skin ,it was worth it

Definitely a great shower gel, smell delicious

I have used this body wash for years and love it . It lathers well and I feel clean after using it. The smell is nice but not too perfumy so that my husband is also a fan of using it. It is not to thick or too liquidly and has a good consistency. It just takes a little to lather my washcloth so it lasts quite a while for us. Will definitely still purchase this cleanser.

Unfortunately didn’t work at all for my body acne and I don’t particularly like the smell.

Love this product. Good smelling. Very gentle.

I had some acne/bumps on my shoulder blades, back, and calves and I started using this and saw a difference within a week. Full results take at least a month of use. I've struggled with this for years and nothing has helped me. This product is just AMAZING. It is drying though, and I don't have a dry skin type at all. Following up with a body lotion after using this should solve the problem. I have super supple, shiny, and smooth skin thanks to this body wash now. I've repurchased like 4 times already! I'd recommend this to anyone with problematic, textured skin on their body. I would say it is a little bit expensive for the size but it's worth it. Personally don't really notice the scent, it's really light.

great

Han pasado dos meses de que empecé a usar este jabón y sí ha cambiado mi piel, está más suave y lisa, se me han quitado los puntos rojos pero no del todo aún. Se tiene que tener paciencia pues tarda en hacer efecto pero me está funcionando. La única queja es que no lo empacaron bien y se tiró el jabón... Pero sí funciona.. lo recomiendo, mi piel es super delicada y este jabón hizo que mi piel recuperara la suavidad.

item came in perfect condition. Colour a bit darker than usual but everything else was about right

Legit original product.This formula is absolutely worth the price.My only regret is not getting it sooner all these years
