CeraVe Moisturizing Salicylic Acid Cream For Rough And Bumpy Skin, Exfoliating Body Cream with Lactic Acid, Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide & Ceramides, Fragrance Free & Allergy Tested, 19 Ounce

I have been suffering from KP bumps and ingrown hairs for a really long time ( over a decade now). I have tried so many things to get rid of these bumps. A little background into my personal situation is that I have a milk chocolate skin tone and it is generally very silky smooth. My skins main issue beside the KP is that my skin is very sensitive and prone to dryness ( I have read that KP and ingrown hairs are common in those who have sensitive skin since KP is a overproduction of keritin to protect the skin [is the guess] but it is genetic and usually rarely goes away for most [ contrary to popular belief]). So I have had these bumps for so long and I have tried exfoliates and moisturizers but in vain. My problem areas are the backs of my arms especially around the elbows,the front of my thighs and the most severe place is the bottom half of my legs around the knee area. My main issue was to smooth the bumpy texture of these bumps. I always used shower puffs and Aveeno ( as my general daily moisturizer I still use it) and most recently Goldbond for Rough and Bumpy Skin. The Goldbond moisterizer was a 6/10 because it really aided the bumps on my thighs and the back of my arm but did nothing for my most severe location by my knees. After I waxed again ingrown hairs arrived on my thighs and the Goldbond did nothing so I decided to find a new solution.I always used Cerave products but the price on this lotion really had me holding back from trying it but I finally did and I am so glad I did. I have been using to for only a month now but within the first few days there was a noticeable change and the bumps are all smoothed out. Unlike other moisturizers like the Goldbond it does not peel off and for a thick lotion it absorbs quickly into the skin. I use it every day, after I shower I just stand for about 5 minutes to make sure it fully absorbs and I thought I would never feel my silky smooth skin on my legs again but I finally did! I paired the Cerave with exfoliation for maximum results used Earth Therapeutics Hydro Exfoliating glove as well and Gigi no bumps body scrub and both of them left my skin sooooo soft after showering but the Cerave just got rid of the rest of the bumps. I strongly recommend this for anyone suffering from KP and ingrown hairs! Especially if you have a bump issue. I am dark skin so the appearance of KP bumps discoloration is not to noticeable on my skin but I did notice a little fade in discoloration but not a whole lot so far after 2 weeks or so all my bumps smoothed and only time will tell if the discoloration will go away signifcantly. Overall a 10/10! 5 stars! I can't believe it works! I recommend it to anyone but remember to exfoliate as well for best results. Hope this long review helps someone.UPDATE 2/6/2017: ( The picture is from the beginning of 2017. After using the product for a few months after purchasing it in 2015, this was my results and they have been consistant since [throughout the rest of 2015-2016 and now 2017].) After using this product for about almost two years now it has worked very well! I regret not taking before shots because I assumed like all the other products I tried that it would not work or do anything, so there was no point! Ugh! I regret it! This product still works for me and I am happy my skin has not adjusted to it. My routine is the same,an exfoliating glove, dove soap, my GiGi scrub and Aveeno lotion that is fragrance free. I was about once a month because I generally am not harry and I exfoliate before and after my waxes and I use this to moisturize for about a week after my wax. I also use it randomly, especially when cold even if it has been weeks since I waxed. My bumps are still visible, but has lightened only slightly. I have darker skin so they do not show up anyways. Like I said before my texture and the feel of the bumps was my concern and still is. This product has left my skin soooo smooth I feel like I never had KP bumps! My final verdict is that this is perfect for smoothing those bumps, but if you are concern with discoloration this will help but you will need something extra. However, this is still great for those with dry, KP and ingrown hair prone skin. Hope I helped :)

Great product my dermatologist recommended it for bumpy, rough skin and it has no bad smell. It’s very thick and hydrating without getting on my clothes. I have been starting to use it in more and more places, but it’s definitely great for your elbows and your knees, and if you get those little bumps on your upper arms, it’s perfect for that I had wanted to wait a little longer before reviewing, but I accidentally bumped one of the stars and couldn’t leave or undo it so I’m early in the process of using it, but I am starting to see some change

If you deal with strawberry legs or bumps after waxing or using an epilator, USE THIS. I promise you, your skin will thank you wholeheartedly. Every time I use this product, my skin feels instantly soft and sooo moisturized! This is a product I will keep purchasing bc I feel that the price is worth it! A little goes a long way, too! It glides easily onto the skin and the moisture lasts till the morning and beyond! I like that it doesn’t have a smell especially since I usually use this a couple days after waxing or epilating my skin. The SA in this cream is DEFINITELY working. I like that this is such a high quality product without breaking the bank (yes, it can be expensive if you’re buying this weekly, but I have mine literally last at least 1–2 months). You don’t need a lot.

I've been using this alongside Cerave's SA Bodywash for almost five years, and I can't say enough good things!When used after cleansing, my skin feels exceptionally moisturized. It's not heavy or sticky on the skin, either, and soaks in quite nicely. I only have to use very small amounts, as well. Perhaps a tablespoon - if that much? - for my legs, arms, and face (and feet!). The tub lasts for almost a year!It's definitely expensive for lotion, but with the variety of products that gear towards reducing KP and its characteristics, this has proven to be the most effective in both cost and physical results. Kind of wish I had a before and after picture...I still have KP, of course, but this lotion has made me feel more confident in my skin. It's significantly reduced redness and milia, as well, which is huge. And I honestly don't see myself buying any other lotion. Ever. Definitely worth it!

Excellent for dry cracked feet! Be generous smoothing it on, allow to sit for 5 mins and the exfoliation begins with a light hand massage. I am not one to review products often but this one is well worth the investment and skin results are better than with a pedi. Ordering my 2nd round now!
