Naturium | The Brightener Vitamin C Body Wash & The Perfector Salicylic Acid Body Wash: Review

Disclaimer: The products featured were provided for review.

One of the things I love most about Naturium is how wide their product lineup is (even though the Canadian market only carries part of the range). Beyond skincare, they also have a great selection of body care products, including oils, lotions, and body washes. Today, I want to highlight two of my favorites from their body wash collection: The Brightener Vitamin C Body Wash and The Perfector Salicylic Acid Body Wash. Keep reading to learn more...

Naturium | The Brightener Vitamin C Brightening Body Wash

Naturium | The Brightener Vitamin C Brightening Body Wash (C$21.99 for 500 ml):

Formulated with vitamin C, fruit enzymes, and hyaluronic acid, this is a brightening and smoothing body wash with a light gel-cream consistency. Softly scented with a citrus zest, The Brightener provides a nice gentle lather that leaves the skin softened and moisturized. Overall, this is a solid everyday cleanser. Personally, the price is a bit high but if you can find it on sale, it's definitely worth stocking up!

Ingredients: Water/Aqua/Eau, Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine, Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate, Glycerin, Coco-Glucoside, Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate, Sodium Hyaluronate, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Ascorbyl Glucoside, Papain, Niacinamide, Bromelain, Sodium PCA, Vaccinium Myrtillus Fruit Extract, Saccharum Officinarum (Sugarcane) Extract, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Fruit Extract, Acer Saccharum (Sugar Maple) Extract, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Extract, Glycol Distearate, Polyquaternium-51, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Citrus Aurantium Amara (Bitter Orange) Leaf/Twig Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Cocamide MIPA, Triethyl Citrate, Sodium Hydroxide, Ethylhexylglycerin, Urea, Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate, Trehalose, Methyl Cocoate, Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate, Coconut Fatty Acid, Maltodextrin, Sodium Benzoate, Sodium Metabisulfite, Tocopherol, Sodium Isethionate, Sodium Chloride, Limonene.

Naturium | The Perfector Salicylic Acid Body Wash

Naturium | The Perfector Salicylic Acid Body Wash (C$21.99 for 500 ml):

Formulated with encapsulated, time-released salicylic acid, The Perfector is a clarifying body wash designed to unclog pores and reduce blemishes, perfect for those struggling with body acne. With no discernible scent, the body wash has a very thick gel consistency, making it quite difficult to pump out of the bottle, especially when several pumps are needed at once. The formulation lathers well and definitely makes the skin feel nice and clean. However, I have not noticed any reduction in pore congestion, body acne, or ingrown hairs, so I am not sure how effective the formulation really is. I think a salicylic acid body spray may be better for those who really want to target those issues.

Ingredients: Aqua/Water/Eau, Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine, Decyl Glucoside, Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate, Glycerin, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Cocamidopropyl Dimethylamine, Salicylic Acid, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Chloride, Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate, Hexylene Glycol, Polysorbate 80, Tocopherol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Phenoxyethanol.
