Body odour, bacne, and keratosis pilaris may show up differently on the skin, but they often begin with underlying imbalances that surface-level cleansing alone cannot fully address. Body odour does not come from sweat itself, since fresh sweat is naturally odourless. It develops when bacteria on the skin break down sweat and produce odour molecules that evaporate into the air. Bacne begins when excess sebum and dead skin cells clog the follicle, while keratosis pilaris develops when excess keratin builds up around follicles and forms tiny plugs that leave skin feeling rough and bumpy. In both cases, the issue starts deeper than the surface, which is why an effective bodycare routine needs to do more than simply cleanse.

Arata’s Odour Control + Smoothening Body Wash Duo is designed to target these concerns at the root. The Odour Control Body Wash helps reduce odour-causing bacteria by up to 99%¹ with TeraBiome™, which works by helping remove the oil, sebum, and sweat lipids that support bacterial growth. It is also powered by Capsudx® Cool 3, an advanced cooling system that activates the skin’s cold receptors more strongly and delivers 10x activation of cold receptors in skin² for an instant icy freshness that lasts long after your shower. This helps leave skin feeling clean, fresh, and comfortable through the day, especially in warm, humid conditions.

The Smoothening Body Wash is designed to work at the follicular level for smoother, clearer skin. It contains 1% salicylic acid, which penetrates sebum-filled follicles to dissolve oil and help reduce bacne, while encapsulated salicylic acid supports continued exfoliation even after rinsing. Alongside this, 1% glycolic acid helps reduce excess keratin buildup and promotes healthier skin cell turnover, making it especially effective for rough, bumpy skin associated with keratosis pilaris. It is also proven to deliver 92% reduction in body acne-causing bacteria³, helping support visibly clearer skin with regular use.

Together, this duo brings targeted cleansing, exfoliation, odour control, and skin-smoothing care into one effective routine. While one body wash helps fight odour-causing bacteria and delivers long-lasting cooling freshness, the other helps clear clogged follicles, reduce bumps, and improve overall skin texture. Added support from biodegradable cellulose beads, glycerin, hyaluronic acid, humectants, and conditioning agents helps ensure skin feels soft, hydrated, and comfortable after every wash, without dryness or over-stripping.

The result is a bodycare routine that goes beyond basic cleansing to support skin that feels fresh, smooth, hydrated, and visibly healthier over time.
