FEATURES
Exfoliating Rough & Bumpy Cream gently exfoliates while hydrating to smooth rough and bumpy skin. Those small bumps and rough patches on your skin can be caused by a build-up of keratin, a type of protein commonly found in the skin. The keratin build-up blocks the openings of hair follicles, especially on the back of the arms and legs, as well as on the face, resulting in bumps and rough patches of skin that can appear red or discoloured. This gentle chemical exfoliator is formulated with 20% Urea to gently dissolve built up keratin and dead skin surface cells, helping to refine skin texture for softer, smoother skin after 1 use and virtually bump-free skin after 1 month.

Triple Acid Blend
Our unique triple acid blend combines Salicylic Acid, Mandelic Acid and Gluconolactone for gentle daily exfoliation for sensitive skin.
Glycerin
Glycerin is a naturally occurring compound. It is a water-soluble emollient that softens and smooths skin. It also produces long-lasting moisturization by attracting water into the skin and helping to retain skin moisture, leaving it appearing healthy and youthful.
Urea Cream
Urea occurs naturally within the skin as part of the natural moisturizing factors. It has a dual-action with both keratolytic (shedding the horny outer of the skin, only at specific percentages) and hydrating effects. This allows it to soften and moisturize, making it ideal for dry, roughened skin.
Sweet Almond Oil
Sweet almond oil, made from almonds, has emollient properties which allow it to smoothen and soften dry, irritated skin and tackle rough skin textures. Other properties include moisturization and tackling skin aging. It also contains vitamin E for its antioxidant effects.

FAQs
It depends on the type of exfoliating cream you’re using. Some exfoliating creams, especially those with physical exfoliants or stronger acids, are meant to be massaged onto the skin and then rinsed off. Leave-on exfoliating creams are designed to stay on the skin and work gradually over time. They typically contain gentle chemical exfoliants like AHAs (glycolic acid), BHAs (salicylic acid), or PHAs (gluconolactone) to encourage the removal of surface buildup for fresher-looking skin while keeping the skin hydrated. Cetaphil Exfoliating Rough & Bumpy Cream is formulated with 20% urea. At higher concentrations, urea’s exfoliating properties help soften and improve the feel of thick or uneven skin, while also helping to hydrate the skin.
Start your skincare by priming your skin with Cetaphil’s Gentle Exfoliating SA Cleanser to support the benefits of your exfoliating routine. Apply an exfoliating cream such as Cetaphil’s Exfoliating Rough & Bumpy Cream to rough and bumpy skin patches on your body and gently massage the cream in. Pair it with Cetaphil’s Gentle Exfoliating SA Face Lotion and use both products daily for smoother, healthier-looking skin.
A buildup of dead skin cells on the surface can contribute to rough, uneven texture, particularly on the arms, legs, and face. These patches may look uneven in tone or texture. Cetaphil Exfoliating Rough & Bumpy Cream is formulated to smooth and refine these rough, bumpy patches with gentle exfoliating ingredients.
However, if you have redness-prone skin, it's important to use caution:
- Patch test first on a small area to see how your skin reacts.
- Start with less frequent use, for example, every other day to minimize the risk of potential irritation.
- Follow with a soothing moisturizer to help soothe and comfort your skin.
- Always apply sunscreen during the day, as exfoliation can make skin more sensitive to UV rays.
