We’re here to share what we know — but don’t take it as medical advice. Talk to your medical provider if you have questions.

If you want a body wash that’s tough on acne, yet gentle enough to use every day, meet the Curology acne body wash. Specially formulated to help prevent and treat body acne, this lightly foaming body cleanser leaves skin feeling clean and soft.

Body breakouts? We’ve got your back: salicylic acid works deep-down in your pores to clean out dirt, oil, and dead skin cells. Our body wash is designed by dermatologists and made to keep your skin happy and healthy.

Body acne, meet your match

Our body wash’s key ingredient, salicylic acid, works by exfoliating the skin to clear away dead skin cells and excess oil. That means it can penetrate deep into your pores to help prevent and treat breakouts. The best part? Our 2% salicylic acid acne body wash is perfectly calibrated: it targets breakouts at the source while being gentle enough to use every day.

The body wash is dermatologist-designed to work with the rest of your Curology routine! All of Curology’s products are non-comedogenic, fragrance-free, dye-free, paraben-free, and hypoallergenic. And shoutout to our fellow animal lovers — we’re vegan and cruelty-free, too! 🐶

Curology Acne Body Wash Ingredients

Active: 2% Salicylic Acid

Inactive: Water, Sodium C14–16 Olefin Sulfonate, Glycerin, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Cocamidopropyl Dimethylamine, Polyglyceryl-4 Caprate, Polyglyceryl-6 Caprylate, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Chloride, Zinc Pyrithione, Sodium Hydroxide, Polyquaternium-7, Ethylhexylglycerin, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Oil, Disodium EDTA, Sodium Benzoate

We’ve got shower power

Curology isn’t just for your face anymore! The acne body wash is easy to use: just lather up in warm water and let our active ingredient do the work. Our acne body wash works fast — leave it on for up to a minute and rinse. This is the ideal time to ponder your #CurologyShowerThoughts (and share them with us after). Have you ever noticed that easy-open packages are actually pretty hard to open? Is cereal technically soup? You get the picture.

Curology members can add the acne body wash to their subscription box. Although the acne body wash is not customized, it is dermatologist-designed to work with the rest of your Curology products! Use our body wash on your body and your custom formula, the cleanser, and the moisturizer on your face.

Custom skincare, straight to your door

Curology is designed and led by dermatologists who bring a custom touch to skincare. When you sign up, we’ll pair you with an in-house medical provider, licensed to practice in your state. They’ll listen to your concerns, then prescribe you a custom cream with a mix of 3 active ingredients for your unique skin.

Already a Curology member? Just update your subscription plan! The full-size acne body wash is a 2-month supply, and it’s available as an add-on if you subscribe to the large bottle of custom cream or the complete Curology routine. You can add the acne body wash for an additional $12 per box (tax will apply where applicable).
