Why Body Scrubs Matter More in Summer (Backed by Skin Science)
During winter, our skin thickens and dries out due to cooler temperatures and reduced sweat.
In summer, everything changes:
-
humidity increases oil flow
-
sweat mixes with sunscreen
-
salt water + chlorine irritate skin
-
shaving becomes more frequent
-
pores become clogged
-
dead skin layers build faster
This combination creates the perfect environment for:
-
body acne
-
bacne
-
blackheads
-
ingrown hairs
-
keratosis pilaris flare-ups
-
uneven tan fade
-
dull, bumpy arms and legs
The solution?
Chemical exfoliation using AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids).
Unlike physical scrubs alone, AHAs dissolve bonds between dead skin cells, revealing smooth, fresh, glowing skin beneath without micro-tears.
What Makes Kenzako’s AHA Body Reset Scrub Different?
There are body scrubs… and then there are clinical-grade resurfacing scrubs.
The Kenzako AHA Body Reset Scrub combines:
✔ AHA resurfacing acids
✔ superfood extracts
✔ microfine exfoliation
✔ hydration technology
✔ barrier-safe formulation
✔ instant glow + long-term skin renewal
This is not just a scrub for smoothness it is a targeted treatment for:
-
body breakouts
-
pigmentation
-
acne scarring
-
strawberry legs
-
bumpy skin
-
keratosis pilaris

What makes it special is the balance between exfoliation + nourishment.
Most scrubs strip your skin.
This scrub upgrades it.
The formula is designed to renew without damaging your barrier meaning you can consistently use it through summer with real results.
Why AHA Body Scrubs Work for Body Acne & Back Acne
Body acne happens when:
-
sweat sits on skin
-
dead cells trap bacteria
-
oil overproduces
-
friction (sports & heat) irritate pores
AHAs:
-
dissolve dead skin
-
unclog pores
-
minimise future acne
-
fade marks & scarring
-
smooth uneven texture
The Kenzako AHA Body Reset Scrub is especially beneficial because:
-
it removes debris
-
kills acne-triggering conditions
-
supports post-breakout healing
Customers repeatedly report:
-
smoother shoulders
-
clearer backs
-
fewer bumps
-
fading pigmentation
This is why it is fast becoming Australia’s go-to body acne scrub.
Why Summer Is the Perfect Time to Start AHA Body Exfoliation
1. More Skin is Exposed
Short sleeves, singlets, swimsuits, your skin is on display.
Confidence starts with texture.
2. Better Ingredient Penetration
Humidity allows acids to penetrate more effectively.
3. Sweat + Sunscreen Require Deeper Cleansing
Surface scrubs won’t penetrate through oil layers AHAs do.
4. Glow Matters More in Summer
Skin tone looks brighter, smoother, healthier and makeup sits better.
5. Your Tan Will Look Better
Exfoliated skin tans evenly and fades slowly.
Summer + AHAs are a perfect pairing.
