Medicube - Kojic Acid Turmeric Vita Brightening Body Wash 400ml

Medicube Kojic Acid Turmeric Vita Brightening Body Wash is a daily body cleanser formulated to address uneven looking skin tone, dark marks, rough texture, flakiness and bumpy looking skin while cleansing away sweat, impurities and daily buildup.

The formula combines Kojic Acid and Turmeric with Niacinamide and Vitamin C to provide targeted brightening and antioxidant care. Together, these ingredients help improve the appearance of dull, uneven and discoloured looking areas without positioning the product as a medical pigmentation treatment.

The body wash also incorporates AHA and BHA exfoliating care. Salicylic Acid appears in the ingredient list as the BHA, while Citric Acid contributes to the formula's exfoliating acid system. These ingredients help loosen accumulated surface skin cells and buildup, leaving rough and bumpy areas feeling smoother and more refined.

This makes it particularly useful for areas where uneven tone and rough texture commonly occur, including the back, underarms, inner thighs and bikini line. Medicube specifically confirms that the body wash can be used on the underarms, but advises against applying it to freshly shaved, irritated or broken skin.

Its micro gel to bubble texture transforms into a rich lather when combined with water, cleansing the skin while helping maintain a comfortable hydrated feel after rinsing.

A citrus fragrance with juicy orange and zesty lemon notes gives the body wash a fresh, uplifting shower scent.
