The formula, explained.
The ingredients behind this formula—and what they bring to your skin.
Glycolic acid 10%
An alpha hydroxy acid that gently exfoliates to smooth rough, bumpy texture and brighten dull skin. Wear sunscreen on exposed areas.
Niacinamide
Vitamin B3 supports the skin barrier and helps even out the look of tone.
Squalane and shea butter
Lightweight squalane and rich shea butter nourish and soften, so skin feels comfortable rather than stripped.
Ingredient imagery is illustrative. Explore the full ingredient list below.

Worth knowing
The finer details.
What it does. How it feels. Where it belongs in your body care.
Biophora’s 10% glycolic acid body cream, for dry, rough or bumpy skin. Two to three times a week, after the shower.
Our pick for the small rough bumps on the backs of the arms and thighs, often called “chicken skin”, and for dull, dry elbows, knees and shoulders. 10% glycolic acid gently exfoliates, while niacinamide, squalane, shea butter and cholesterol hydrate and support the barrier, so skin feels soft rather than stripped. With regular use, rough patches feel smoother and skin looks brighter and more even.
Key ingredients
- Glycolic acid 10%: exfoliates to smooth texture and brighten
- Niacinamide: supports the barrier and helps even out the look of tone
- Squalane and shea butter: nourish and soften
- Cholesterol and sodium hyaluronate: help the skin hold on to moisture
How to use
- Use 2 to 3 times a week on clean, dry skin, ideally after the shower.
- Massage in with firm, upward strokes, focusing on dry or rough areas.
- Avoid freshly shaven or irritated skin.
- During the day, wear sunscreen on exposed areas.
Glycolic acid can make skin more sensitive to the sun: wear sunscreen daily on exposed areas. Contains lavender and geranium oils: if your skin reacts to essential oils, patch test first.

Biophora Velvet Body AHA Body Cream
Biophora’s 10% glycolic acid body cream, for dry, rough or bumpy skin. Two to three times a week, after the shower.
Why we love it
Velvet Body is our pick for “chicken skin” on the backs of the arms and thighs, and for elbows, knees and shoulders that look dull or feel rough. 10% glycolic acid gently exfoliates, while niacinamide, squalane, shea butter and cholesterol keep skin soft and comfortable. Be patient and consistent: two to three times a week, after the shower, is where the results come from. And since glycolic acid makes skin more sun-sensitive, wear sunscreen on exposed areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I use it?
Two to three times a week, after the shower. On the other days, use your regular body moisturizer.
Can I use it after shaving?
Not right after. Glycolic acid can sting on freshly shaven skin. Wait a day, or shave on the days you are not using it.
Do I need sunscreen?
Yes. Glycolic acid makes skin more sensitive to the sun, so wear sunscreen daily on any exposed area where you apply it.
Can I use it on my face?
It is formulated for the body. For the face, we suggest Gentle AHA Cream or Lactic Acid Serum instead.
Can I use it during pregnancy?
Every situation is different, and skin can be more reactive during pregnancy. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your healthcare provider before use.
