As the temperatures go down and the urge to take longer and warmer showers goes up, make sure you're prioritizing hydrating skincare products. One quick way to up your hydration is by picking up the Alpha Skin Care Moisturizing Body Wash, which does so much more than just cleanse and moisturize.
The body wash isn't your average shower gel because it contains glycolic acid, an anti-aging hero. "Glycolic acid is probably the most recognizable alpha hydroxy acid," Dr. Melanie Palm, a dermatologist based in San Diego, previously told InStyle. The AHA helps to speed up "skin renewal and turnover. It has also been shown to encourage new collagen growth and improve skin texture and fine lines, particularly at higher concentrations."

Because glycolic acid acts as a gentle exfoliant, removing dead skin cells that block oil glands, it can also help reduce the number of breakouts you're seeing. And since it "it regulates normal pigment production, which encourages even skin tone," per Dr. Palm said, you're left with smooth-looking, youthful, and glowing skin.
Shoppers can't stop raving about the Alpha Skin Care shower gel in their Amazon reviews. One shopper said that it "will be a staple" in their shower, while others called the wash "perfect" and said that it "smells fresh" and "lathers well," and one even promised that it results in "the softest skin ever."
It "saves dry itchy skin," another reviewer wrote, adding, "I have very dry skin that gets itchy on top of keratosis pilaris. This product leaves my skin smooth and restores the moisture. Even if I forget to put on moisturizer after showering my skin feels great. No more itchy and ashy skin."
"I'm pregnant and was suffering from some awful hormonal side [effects] including acne all over my back, chest, and face," another user shared. "I read that I needed glycolic acid to help balance out all the hormones, and found this product. After just a few uses, I noticed a huge difference. The scent isn't overpowering at all, and a little bit goes a long way. 10/10 would recommend."
Ready to combat dry, dull, and aging skin? The Alpha Skin Care shower gel is a true multitasker for the changing seasons. Head to Amazon now and grab the glycolic wash for $13.
