Particularly useful for dry and rough body skin
Can be used morning and evening

Apply liberally over the body, ideally immediately after bathing or showering.

Use once daily initially. It may be increased to morning and evening according to skin tolerance and hydration needs.

Because the formula contains 12% Lactic Acid, introduce progressively if the client is new to body acids or is using other exfoliating body products.

Apply broad-spectrum SPF to any exposed treated body areas during the day.

Avoid applying immediately after shaving, waxing or to irritated or compromised skin if stinging occurs.

Lactic Acid 12% – AHA
Provides significant surface exfoliation while also supporting the skin’s natural moisturising factor. It helps visibly smooth rough texture and improve dull, uneven-looking skin.

Shea Butter
Provides nourishing emollient moisture without a heavy greasy finish.

Glycerin
Helps attract and retain water within the skin.

Jojoba Esters
Help condition and soften rough, moisture-depleted body skin.

Vitamin E – Tocopheryl Acetate
Provides complementary antioxidant and conditioning support.

Formula Note

The published formula also contains Gluconolactone, but I would not make PHA part of the hero marketing or primary collection structure because PCA Skin positions the product around its 12% Lactic Acid system.

Perfect Pairing

For rough, dry body skin:
Body Therapy → daily body SPF on exposed areas

For neck + décolletage ageing:
Use Body Therapy across appropriate body areas and Perfecting Neck & Décolleté as the dedicated corrective for the neck and chest.

For very dry areas:
Body Therapy can be used consistently after showering while richer moisturising support can be added to particularly dry areas as required.

This is one of the PCA Skin products I would actively cross-sell to clients already investing in facial exfoliation but neglecting body texture and tone.
