20 Best Oil For Keratosis Pilaris (2022 Updated)

This product is outstanding, very soothing and healing. My toddler son developed kp on his cheeks and back of the arms. We have been using KP Away for approx. 9 weeks and so far we have seen great improvement.

His skin has become very smooth, red “dots” are getting smaller and fading and the “blemishes” left by old bumps are vanishing. The kp on the back of his arms is almost completely gone. I also would like to mention that the customer service we have received from the KP Away folks has been great.

They have answered all our questions promptly and provided good recommendations on how to use the product. After the dermatologist diagnosed him with kp, he recommended to use a moisturizer with salicylic acid, which we used for several weeks.

While we saw his skin getting “smoother” (the bigger pimple-liked bumps reduced significantly, although smaller bumps remained), his face still showed red spots, irritation and red “dots” (not raised).

We realized this approach while effective treating some “symptoms” was not attacking the root cause of the problem and could potentially increase irritation. We needed something different. After searching for alternative treatments, we came across KP Away and its novel approach to treating kp, which resonated to me primarily because it redefined the root cause of the problem as lack of essential lipids in the skin vs.

a lack of exfoliation. We decided to switch to KP Away to treat the problem at the source (deep moisturization, lipid repairing and rebuilding), reduce the irritation and redness and establish a treatment sustainable in the long run (not based on acids or “harsh” stuff that could exacerbate irritation).

We apply KP Away once daily after his evening bath (to clean his face we use a very gentle sensitive skin baby wash). The cream feels great, it’s easy to apply and absorbs quickly. I love the fact that because it is not based on exfoliating acids, we can apply more liberally without concerns about irritation the next day (which we had seen with the salicylic acid-based moisturizer) or increased sun sensitivity.

This allows his skin to “relax” while keeping the kp at bay. Also, per Anar’s recommendation we stopped using chemical sunscreen and switched to mineral sunscreen (we noticed the previous sunscreen was creating irritation).

The Badger Baby Sunscreen has been a great complement to KP Away (organic, simple ingredients, very soothing, etc), which we apply every morning before school or playing outside. I am planning to update this review at the 3, 6 and 12 month mark.

We intend to continue using KP Away for the foreseeable future. My advice to parents: be patient and faithful. This product works! Thank you Anar and Carly for a great product!.

I tried KP appx a year ago and fell in love with this product. I have had KP since I was a child and it runs in my family. I have tried harsh exfoliating products to reduce the annoying red bumps, which did nothing.

I have tried eating less gluten and it is still there. People have asked me since o was a kid if I had a rash or if my red bumps were contagious. I told them it’s similar to excema as it’s easier to explain.

KP Away is t the first product I have used that actually reduces the appearance of the bumps. It also leaves your skin feeling super moisturizes without feeling greasy. I love that it is made by doctors and not that it does not have added parable or petroleum.

If you are tired of KP bumps, get this!.

I have super sensitive skin so I get worried when o buy products, especially those I can use all over body. This product is amazing! Never once had a breakout. I use this every morning and every night, mostly as a moisturizer for my face as its very hydrating.

You get a lot of product in one container so its going to last me a little while. Overtime this helped me with lessening of my KP as well on the back of my arms. I would recommend this to everyone, if you have KP or not, because this cream is so multi functional.

This will especially come in handy as winter and dry skin season is coming up.

This product has been introduced to me by my friend. I am really having issues with my oily and dry skin. I have tried using moisturizers and such but it is just not enough—my skin turns dry and oily after an hour or so.

I hope that this product can help my face and skin. Looking forward for this one!.

I got to know about this product from my roomate. I closely noticed she was using and got benificial results. Then I started followingand using it. Hopefully I became a fan and also a lover of this product.

thanks for such an amazing product. I appreciate ur decency.

Love this product! It works so well. I have mature skin and using it morning and night improves the fineness and fine lines and crows feet. It truly is a facelift in a bottle! Highly recommend this product.

For those complaining about the smell, it’s a chemical exfoliant with aha and oatmeal and urea to name a few. It’s an excellent product for what you need it for. The smell is not strong, it just has a similar smell like a self tanning product.

But if you want to exfoliate your skin and smooth it and get rid of the bumps or for what I use it for is the alpha hydroxy acid is excellent for getting rid of crepey dry skin. The smell is minor compared to the benefits.

It doesn’t last and wears off quickly. If you really can’t stand it then use some scented lotion on top and just use this for your problem areas. Or some perfume. But I’m telling you, your skin will get toned and youthful real quick with this lotion and use sparingly.

The main complaint I have is the price point for what you get. So I use it on upper arms and top and inside thighs, where the sun damage is. It even seems to get rid of the sun spots that have popped up in recent years.

I used the KP scrub first in the shower. I had lost 50 lbs recently and really needed to tighten up some stretch marks and it’s working after only a couple of weeks. I probably won’t buy it again because it’s done its job and now I’ll switch to Shea butter.

I came here specifically to buy this lotion after using it in the bye-bye bumps box and I was shocked at the rating! This is the best lotion I’ve used – seriously. And I’ve been searching for a good lotion for SO LONG.

I’m Filipino and French which equates to thick hair and dry skin. This lotion not only makes my skin feel good it makes it LOOK good. And I didn’t even notice the smell that’s giving this such a low rating.

I’ve used far more expensive face oils that have smelled worse than this. It also could potentially be individuals skin as acids can interact to create different smells. I hope this lotion doesn’t go anywhere any time soon because I’ve finally found my go-to.

Okay, hear me out. My entire life I’ve avoided products specifically targeted towards KP because I always thought that it was just a gimmick and wouldn’t actually work and just sought out products with ingredients that I had looked into in peer reviewed research articles.

I decided to pick this (and the scrub) up on a whim when I was shopping and when I tell you nothing has worked better for my KP I genuinely mean it. Of course the bumps are not completely gone, but the improvements made so far are so much more than I could have wished! It does smell a bit like formaldehyde (shoutout to my first year anatomy lab) right out of the bottle but the smell disappears right after rubbing it in; personally, I think its worth it so that im able to wear a short sleeved shirt out of the house for the first time in a long time.

If I could gives this 10 stars, I would! I have had keratosis pilaris in my upper arms and entire legs since I was a teenager. I’ve tried dry brushing and dozens of different treatments to no avail. The FIRST time I applied this stuff, my arms and legs felt like absolute velvet and within a week of first scrubbing in the shower with a nylon bath brush (the natural fiber ones break me out into hives) and applying this after my showers while my skin is still damp, my arms are completely bump free and my strawberry legs have significantly lightened and my skin is velvety soft.

This is also the only lotion I’ve ever found that I can apply immediately after shaving my legs without breaking out in hives or becoming very irritated and itchy. I will buy this stuff forever and in bulk! I’m also insanely picky and sensitive to smells and this is so lightly scented with a very mellow almost cocoa butter smell that fades immediately.

TLDR; Absorbs instantly, not sticky, not irritating (even right after shaving), no intense scent, destroys KP and leaves my skin velvety soft. Will never stop using this!.

I purchased this in an attempt to fight pesky acne on my back that just NEVER seemed to go away. I’m 28, and ever since high school I’ve struggled with blemishes on my shoulders and back. I’ve tried tons of products over the years, followed all the recommendations and nothing ever seemed to work.

Finally, I tried this product- and I can finally say that my back has completely cleared up! It took some time of (relatively) consistent use- I started by applying it every night before bed (at least when I remembered to), and by the time I was through the first bottle (which lasted a couple of months), my back was completely cleared up!! I purchased a second bottle, and now only use it once every week or two, and it seems to have kept my problem skin at bay.

To me, it’s a great price point for what you get, especially now that I feel like I can use it more for “maintenance”, and don’t need to use as much product- I’ve had my second bottle for 6 months now and am probably only about half way through it.

Of course different products work for different people, but I would highly recommend giving this a try if you’re struggling with body blemishes!.

I thought I’d give this a go to try something from the body products range, and it’s going well so far. My pores are still a bit prominent on my arms, but over time this has definitely helped reduce them.

Consistency is definitely needed with this, but you only need to use a small amount at a time. Lovely fresh and clean scent as well, so it’s nice for applying after a shower. Would recommend for someone who is willing to put in the long-term consistency I think this product needs to show its best results.

So I’ve had KP on my arms & legs for about 5-7 years now. Within the last year for whatever reason it’s gotten worse. I read the glowing reviews for this, & decided to give it a try. Worst case scenario, I have a heavy duty moisturizer for dry winter/covid cleaning skin/hands.

I was pleasantly surprised by how well this product worked! The moisture really does last (like until my shower the next morning), & I’ve seen a noticable change in my KP. Bumps are few and far between & also much smaller, they’re not quite so rough feeling, & they no longer have that red/irritated look to them, so they don’t stand out on my fair skin anywhere near as much as they used to.

I can feel comfortable in a short sleeve shirt without all the anxiety & thinking about covering my arms up all day. (I used this in conjunction with the Derma Doctor AHA/BHA cleanser. I originally got the cleanser to use on my face, but it’s way too harsh.

It works great as a spot scrub for my KP though!).

KP Duty dermatologist moisturizing therapy for dry skin is an amazing product. It’s pricey but well worth it. I had KP on the backs of my upper arms especially when I was younger and would even cover them with foundation when wearing sleeveless tops.

My two dermatologists prescribed me Lac-Hydrin which was a lot more affordable but I personally stumbled after doing research upon KP Duty and it personally was much more effective for me than Lac-Hydrin.

The formula for the lotion is very thick so a little can go a long way. It is a bit sticky when applied and since it has glycolic in it it would leave small bleached stains on my towels and clothing.

To counter this, I would wear an old long sleeve shirt. This was effective as the product would not accidentally rub off. After a month of using the moisturizer along with the scrub I saw visible difference.

My bumps were noticeably less and the redness was almost completely gone. After about 3 weeks time, I noticed that it was making my skin a bit sensitive as perhaps it was strong on my skin. I changed frequency to every three days to maintain.

Although KP Duty is expensive it is a product that I think is worth it and effective in KP reduction.

I felt absolutely compelled to pen this review as a result of the sheer efficacy of this line of products. my husband suffers from Keratosis Pilaris, and always had. After purchading the kakadu line for myself, and seeing real results- I decided to try the K.

P. duty line. We started with this cream first, and after two or three applications, my husband was shocked by the results of just this product alone. After just two additional uses of both the scrub and this cream- K.

P. GONE!!! Incredible product even as a standalone. Genius in conjunction with scrub.

This is an excellent organic, cold pressed, almond oil. I keep this in the shower and apply it to my wet skin after I’ve showered. The water helps move this over the skin easily so you apply an even, thin coat and it absorbs well.

The little bit left on my hands I rub into the ends of my hair and rinse it through. This is a great winter moisturizer and using it in this way, I never feel greasy, remember a little goes a long way.

It comes with a pump but I prefer the snap lid, it’s less messy and more controllable since you need so little. This product has almost no smell, it just slightly has the smell of a bag of fresh almonds in their shell, it doesn’t smell at all like say almond extract, if that’s what you were thinking.

It’s pleasant and fresh and good for your skin. I prefer this to lotions that are full of chemicals and other unknown ingredients, everything you put on your skin is absorbed into your system, so I prefer to keep it organic and pure and this is pure organic oil.

This is an excellent oil at a great price. I highly recommend it.

I have been so into skincare oils lately – facial oils and body oils. My skin is so dry with the cold weather and I’ve found that oils are the most effective topical solutions for my face and body. I’ve used this sweet almond oil everywhere – my face, my body, my hair.

I highly recommend for the face as a lighter, daytime oil applied in the morning. My skin absorbs it readily and I can usually apply makeup after about 5 minutes. I also use it as an after shower body oil instead of lotion.

It is phenomenal for this purpose. My skin stays moisturized for about 3 days. It doesn’t do as well on my hair, as my hair doesn’t readily absorb it. Despite my hair needing a lot of hydration, I find that this oil turns my hair oily and lanky, even with minimal amounts.

This sweet almond oil has no fragrance so perfect for those with sensitive noses or if you prefer to wear a fragrance that won’t clash. I’ve also started using this as a carrier oil to dilute tea tree oil, which I use as an antimicrobial.

There are so many uses for coconut oil! It’s great for massages! Just add in a few drops of your favorite essential oil, like lavender or eucalyptus! My hair can get dry and damaged from coloring it! I use this as a conditioner while I’m in the shower! It’s amazing how much is moisturizes and hydrates my hair! I also use it as a facial mask! A great lip balm! Smooths and softens my lips! Rub coconut oil on the temples of your head to reduce stress! The scent is relaxing and calming! There are lots of benefits that I have found with using this product! I recommend this to anyone who wants to try a natural way with coconut oil!.

Believe me I have tried so many lotions and potions on the market for dry skin. I have tried to steer clear of chemicals that I put on and in my body , so this body oil ticks all the boxes. It is wonderful, I now have soft smooth skin for the first time in I don’t know how long.

I recently ordered Simply Body Oil for myself but I ended up using in my 89 year old Mom. Her skin is so dry. I massage into her arms and legs after her shower. Its amazing. Its helping with her dry skin.

I love it. I just ordered 3 more bottles. I can’t wait to use it on myself! *.

I’ve reordered numerous times and will continue to do so. The body oil absorbs quickly, non-greasy, and leave your skin looking and feeling great.

This stuff works GREAT for my KP. I have tried EVERYTHING. My dermatologist sold me my first set of this. for way more money. I’m so glad I found it for much less. By the way, it makes other skin on your body smooth as well.

It absolutely works to get rid of those darn bumps on the back of your arms. ALL gone now! I still use it from time to time when I need a good exfoliation or when the bumps start to come back. My boyfriend constantly raves about how soft my skin is.

Get it! You’ll love it.

I am using the product for the back of my arms. After two weeks my husband reports that the bumpy things on my arms are “less sharp. ” I like how thick the wash is and how it lathers. The lotion is thick too.

The fragrance is not overpowering and fades quickly after application. My skin is a little tacky after using the lotion, but it’s not too noticeable unless I put a long-sleeve shirt on. I like it. It’s doing what I hoped it would do! Thank you!!!!.

I’ve had terrible kp my entire life, and I’ve tried dozens of different products to treat it. Nothing I’ve tried so far even comes close to Glytone. The combination of the body wash (which I use sparingly) and lotion has given me smoother skin than I thought possible.

The lotion must be used consistently to be effective. The body wash also works great as an exfoliant before shaving. Be warned, however, that you will get the worst sunburn of your life if you’re not diligent with sunscreen.

I have a bunch of acne and acne scars on my back and this lotion is magic. I’ve been using it twice a day for about a month. Not only are the acne scars fading but I’m not getting any new breakouts. The lotion is a little on the thicker side so you have a rub it in but I’m willing to work a little if it means beautiful clear skin.

After the first use you can genuinely feel the difference and the most difference you see is in 2 weeks the skin just looks more soft and like you want to touch it amazing

I don’t know what magic is in this bottle (actually I do, the ingredients are listed!) But it is just a GREAT body oil. I love using oils right after I shower before bed and this one is just wonderful.

It absorbs nicely but leaves my skin with a soft glow and it smells amazing! I can’t can’t say how moisturizing it is, because I do use lotion under the oil, but I know it seems to help lock in the moisture.

If nothing else, it is just a wonderful way to help pamper your skin and make your body feel good! 10/10 would repurchase and recommend!.

This product is sensational. If you like the feeling off velvet skin then this is a must buy. My body is normally dry but this was a game changer. I cannot recommend enough how good this product is and for the price it is really worth it.

Only downsize is that it is not that big and with regular use can finish quite quickly.

So lightweight, so so so hydrating. I use this right after the shower and I don’t need to follow up with lotion. If you do use with lotion you’re skin will be incredibly soft and hydrated.

This product will definitely exfoliate dry skin, just don’t use it daily, as it is strong & will do the job fast & with conservative usage. I use it all over my body, focusing on arms, hands, legs and feet.

I’d recommend using it only once or twice a week to start in order to gauge how it works for you. I have fairly dry, flakey skin that isn’t helped any by the dry air in Alberta! I have found this product quickly takes the flakes away much faster & more effectively than Paula’s Choice 10% AHA body lotion, which I had been using daily.

I’m going to stick with this Glytone Exfoliating lotion from now on. This product is even amazing at exfoliating thick flaking heels, although you may not notice it until you shower – if you gently use fingernails & pads of fingers, or a foot file, you’ll see a bunch of old thick skin come away to quickly reveal a much improved skin texture.

My hands and wrists are often extra dry & flakey due to cleaning and frequent hand washing. When I first bought this product, I used it nightly for a few days & ended up with redness and a bit of almost rawness at one wrist.

I don’t blame the product however, as I was using it just as I had with the other lower AHA percentage lotion (nightly). Once or twice a week will do – again because it is very effective & faster working.

I highly recommend this product to anyone with flakey skin. Just go slow with it. I have no problems with it when I use it once or twice a week instead of nightly.

I bought this with the intention of using it on acne prone areas of my body, like my back. This is a VERY THICK lotion so it doesn’t spread easily over large areas like the back. Because it’s SO THICK it doesn’t sit comfortably on the skin.

I also discovered this lotion is VERY, VERY STRONG — my skin started peeling and it took several weeks for it to get back to normal. I have another body lotion that’s 20% free glycolic acid that didn’t cause my skin to peel, so I don’t know why this is Glytone one is so darn potent.

This is a good lotion, it does renew the skin, but it needs to be used with caution. I recommend using a small amount sparingly on small areas.

I have normal skin with no issues although a little dry. I Love the glytone exfoliating body lotion! The texture is creamy and stays moist on your skin all day. No smell which is great. You can mix it with a a little scented essential oil.

I have seen a little improvement in my overall skin texture. To get the most out of the benefits of this lotion apply right after a shower and use full strength without anything added at least every other day.

It’s great on dry feet. Use every night and morning. Then put your socks on.

First off, face oil is really not my thing. I used to love the Guerlain oil but after using the 2nd bottle it burnt my face. I stopped using any face oil since then. Until I got sample of the La Mer renew oil, my life has changed.

I use this oil before the La Mer moisturizer and it makes my skin smooth, even tone and reduce blemishes. That’s why I decided to buy a full size though it is very pricey, but It’s worth every penny.

You only need to use 3 drops each time, so 0. 5z will last use at least 6 month if you use it 2 times per day. I only use it at night cause I have combination skin so I don’t want to apply oil before makeup.

I would recommend this product for everyone.

I know it’s way too expensive but this is an amazing face oil! I’ve very sensitive skin and this oil never irritates my acne prone face! I’ve noticed a significant difference in overall appearance. My skin tone is looks more even and it gives a very healthy glow! I’ve tried many oils which are little cheaper in price but either ended up breaking out or never saw any difference.

But this oil is a magic. Use 3 drops in the morning and 3 drops in the evening with moisturizer and skin feels great! I’ll continue purchasing as long as I can afford it. Best oil in the market. Thank you LA MER.

Raved about this product in the trial phase of product development! I purchased it as soon as it came to market. I was quickly reminded about how much I value this oil for its quick absorption and amazing results for leaving the skin feeling soft and moisturized.

As a very sensitive person to scents, this product has a wonderful fragrance and does not linger. IDEAL!.

This body oil is the absolute new BEST thing ever!! My skin has never been so soft and more moisturized. I love that it doesn’t leave a greasy feeling afterwards. Since day one I’ve used this every night after showering and haven’t skipped a night yet.

This is a body oil everyone needs.

First off, I love the scent. The oil itself is lovely- so hydrating. I sometimes get very itchy at bedtime, but I’ve been putting this on immediately after my pre-bed shower and my skin is moisturized, soft, and best of all, not itchy.

This product really does work, I noticed my skin was softer even after the first use and have continued to purchase. Only issue for me is the fragrance, can’t put my finger on what it is but smells just very artificial.

Having said that, the effectiveness of the product is such that I have overlooked that and still highly recommend. It’s a milky/oil consistency and it doesn’t leave the bottom of the bath slippery after draining the water, like some other oils I have tried.

I think the “milk” component negates this so makes a good balance.

I absolutely love this product. I put this in my bath along with some bath salts after exfoliating with Ameliorate’s soothing body lotion and my skin has never felt so soft! It is the most amazing combination – I can’t recommend this range enough.

I have eczema and Ameliorate’s products are non-irritating and so calming. I’m only putting 4 stars because I wish it came in a bigger size!! I have gone through about 3 bottles of this and will continue to repurchase.

I love Ameliorate – the body lotion really has transformed my KP. I like the smell of this soak but was disappointed it doesn’t form bubbles. It did not keep my skin hydrated – I tried it without moisturiser and my skin was sore and dry during the day (which does not happen with other products like the Ouai Chill Pills, as the oils in those continue to moisturise after the bath).

I’ll stick to Au Lait and Philosophy for bubbles!.
