Frequently Asked Questions about Keratosis Pilaris

What is keratosis pilaris?
Keratosis pilaris is a common skin condition where dead skin cells clog the hair follicles, forming small, hard bumps. It often appears on the upper arms, thighs, buttocks, and cheeks, and the skin may feel rough and uneven.

How do you get rid of keratosis pilaris?
While keratosis pilaris can’t be cured, it can be significantly improved with the right care. Regular exfoliation and the use of a hydrating, emollient-rich cream can help remove dead skin cells and smooth the skin.

What products work best for keratosis pilaris?
A combination of a gentle body wash, a mild exfoliating treatment, and a nourishing body lotion is ideal. Our collection is formulated to soften and smooth the skin without causing irritation.

How quickly can you see results?
Some people notice smoother skin within a few days, but for most, it takes 2–4 weeks of consistent use to see visible improvement. Consistency is key to achieving and maintaining results.

Is keratosis pilaris the same as dry skin?
Not exactly — but dry skin can make keratosis pilaris worse. The condition is caused by a buildup of keratin in the hair follicles, but dryness can make the bumps more noticeable and the skin rougher. That’s why moisturizing is essential.

Should you scrub skin with keratosis pilaris?
Gentle exfoliation is important. Harsh scrubbing can irritate the skin and worsen the condition. Instead, use a mild peel or exfoliating cleanser and always follow with a hydrating moisturizer.

Which areas of the body are typically affected?
Keratosis pilaris most commonly appears on the upper arms but can also occur on the thighs, buttocks, and cheeks. Our products can be used on all of these areas.

Can the products be used daily?
Yes, our products are designed for daily use and deliver the best results with consistent application. Use a cleanser and exfoliator in the shower, followed by a moisturizer to keep your skin soft and smooth.

Is keratosis pilaris permanent?
Keratosis pilaris is a chronic condition, but symptoms can be managed effectively with the right skincare routine. Many people see a noticeable improvement in skin texture and appearance with consistent use of targeted products.
