Dunk in a pool of water, hydrate your skin and come out with soft glowing skin!

Wouldn’t that be wonderful if it were true! Unfortunately a pool of water doesn’t work. Many elements affect our skin making it dry. Weather, food, drink, sun, and stress can dry out our skin. Some also experience Keratosis Pilaris (ker-uh-TOE-sis pih-LAIR-is), a common skin condition that causes dry, rough patches and tiny bumps, usually on the upper arms, thighs, cheeks, or buttocks. The bumps generally don’t hurt or itch, but many find them annoying and embarrassing. The condition can occur at any age. Some aliases for this are “KP” and “chicken skin”.

About 40% of the adult population lives with Keratosis Pilaris.

We are always on the search for the miracle product to relieve our dry skin or KP. The summer gives my skin a beating and when my skin is dry it reminds me of looking at my grandmother when I was younger. I sometimes look at my hands, arms, legs, and feet and think, “OMG, I’m becoming my grandmother!” I refuse to let this happen.

Product Product Product

You have heard me say this about hair and face products many times. The products you choose are very important. While there is no cure for KP, alpha-hydroxy containing products, like AmLactin, can help with the dry skin associated with the condition. After using AmLactin for the last couple weeks, I have noticed a difference on my dry skin. I used to need to apply and re-apply lotions many times per day but now my skin looks and feels soft! I keep on schedule with my pedicures but this summer was so busy, I hadn’t kept my monthly schedule and my feet showed it! One of my favorite AmLactin products is the foot cream, although I love al the others too. AmLactin has now found its place in my travel bag!

What Causes KP?

Keratosis pilaris results from the buildup of keratin—a hard protein that protects skin from harmful substances and infection. The keratin forms a scaly plug that blocks the opening of the hair follicle. Usually many plugs form, causing patches of rough, bumpy skin. No one knows exactly why keratin builds up, but dry skin tends to worsen the condition.
