Six single bottles for the shower and for after it: two exfoliating body wash sizes with salicylic acid and lactic acid, two brightening washes with alpha arbutin and vitamin C, and two lotions built on AHA or retinol. This is the line for rough, bumpy skin and for anyone chasing a more even-looking skin tone. Unlike the kits further down, each item is sold on its own, so one step can be added at a time.

Underarm Roll-Ons with AHAs
Four roll-ons pair lactic and mandelic acid in a 5% AHA blend, without alcohol or aluminium. They differ by scent (aqua, white jasmine, royal oudh) and by size, from 1.35 fl oz up to 2.5 fl oz. None of them is unscented, which is the main thing to weigh before choosing this line over the fragrance-free body products.

Face Serum, Scrub and Cleanser
The smallest line here: a 2% salicylic acid serum in a 10 ml bottle, a mandelic acid face scrub with walnut shell powder, and a rice water cleanser with oatmeal and vitamin E. Every bottle holds 100 ml or less, which sets the line apart from the shower-sized body products. Shiny, oily faces point to the serum, while dull, dry-feeling skin points to the cleanser.

Small 10 ml salicylic acid serum for controlling excess oil on the face.

Body Care Kits and Combos
Five sets bundle two or three products from the single-item lines into one routine. The duos pair an exfoliating wash with an AHA lotion, the 3-in-1 kit and the Soft & Smooth Body Ritual add an underarm roll-on, and the Body Refining Combo puts the brightening and exfoliating washes side by side. A set makes sense if you would otherwise buy those bottles one at a time.

What sets Chemist At Play formulas apart
Acid strength printed as a number
Most items name their acid load in figures: 2% salicylic acid in the face serum, 1% salicylic acid with 2% lactic acid in the exfoliating body wash, 5% AHA in the body lotion and the roll-ons, 4% retinol in the retinol lotion. A stated percentage lets you compare one bottle against another before buying, instead of guessing from a word like gentle.
Acids paired with butters and ceramides
The exfoliating acids rarely appear alone. Ceramides sit in the exfoliating wash, shea butter and niacinamide in the AHA lotion, murumuru butter in the kit's body wash and phytoceramides in the brightening wash. Each acid formula carries a softening partner, which is worth checking if your skin feels tight after washing.
Fragrance-free body basics
The large exfoliating body wash and the AHA body lotion are fragrance-free, silicone-free and dye-free, and both are vegan and cruelty-free. The roll-ons go the other way, with aqua, white jasmine and royal oudh scents. Where scent is a deal-breaker, the body line is the place to stay.
Roll-ons built on AHAs instead of aluminium
The underarm line uses a 5% AHA blend of lactic and mandelic acid, with no aluminium and no alcohol in the formula. The roll-on works as an exfoliating step that also freshens the underarm area, a different job from a plain deodorant stick.
Ingredients and care across the range
Three acid families carry the exfoliating side. Salicylic acid appears at 1% in the body wash and 2% in the face serum. Lactic acid and mandelic acid make up the 5% AHA blend in the roll-ons, and lactic acid reaches 2% in the exfoliating body wash. The face scrub adds lactobionic acid and walnut shell powder for gentle exfoliating action by hand, and the Healthy Glow Body Duo contains glycolic acid.
Brightening is the second thread. Alpha arbutin, 30X vitamin C, camu camu and niacinamide go into the brightening washes, aimed at uneven-looking tone and the look of dark spots. Shea butter, murumuru butter, ceramides, phytoceramides and vitamin E balance the acids in the washes and lotions.
With any acid product, patch test a small area first, especially on sensitive skin. Keep roll-on caps closed between uses so the ball does not dry out. If fragrance bothers you, stick to the fragrance-free wash and lotion rather than the scented roll-ons.

Rough, bumpy skin on the body
Strawberry skin and bumpy texture are the situation the exfoliating body wash targets. The 236 ml bottle is the low-commitment way to try the dissolvable beads and the salicylic plus lactic formula before moving to the larger size.
Dry patches after the shower
Dry skin with bumps and rough patches calls for a leave-on step. The 5% AHA lotion goes on after washing and carries no fragrance, which suits a household where one person dislikes scented body care.
One brightening wash for two people
Couples sharing a shower can share the unisex Vitamin C Brightening Body Wash, a 15.9 fl oz bottle with alpha arbutin for uneven-looking tone and dark spots.
Switching away from aluminium deodorant
Anyone moving off aluminium gets a roll-on with lactic and mandelic acid instead. Daily users who go through a bottle quickly should look at the 2.5 fl oz Aqua Roll-On, the larger of the sizes.
About the Chemist At Play range
The catalogue covers eighteen products in four lines: body wash and lotion, underarm care, face care, and kits that combine items from the first three.
The weight sits on the body. Eleven of the eighteen products are washes, lotions or sets for the body, four are underarm roll-ons and three are for the face.
Formulas are labelled for women and men alike, and the Shower-to-Softness Body Duo is marked as suitable for all skin types, including sensitive. Sizes run from a 10 ml serum to 15.9 fl oz shower bottles, so trial sizes and large bottles sit side by side.
If you would rather buy one routine than single bottles, the kits are the shortcut. To test one formula first, start with a 236 ml or 8 fl oz bottle.
