AmLactin Ultra Smoothing - Therapeutic Hand Cream for Dry Cracked Hands - No-Scrub Exfoliator and Moisturizer with 15% Lactic Acid AHA, 4.9 oz (Packaging May Vary)​

I love this & have been using it for over 10 yrs. It's great for very dry skin. It is very rich so I don't need much for each application & it makes my skin feel very smooth. I usually use it at night on my hands, since I wash them so often throughout the day. I have used it on other areas, but it gets expensive if I use it as a whole body lotion. It does last quite awhile. I've used other forms of Amlactin that don't smell too good, but as concentrated as this is, it doesn't have a strong odor. I'm very happy with the quality & results.

I battle eczema on my palms and feet, and use a high level cortisone topical from my dermatologist, and alone that was not enough. Amlactin 15% used daily (especially following hand washing) has been so effective. I use the cortisone cream much less frequently, and when I do, it penetrates better because there is no build up of dried, flaky skin. Yes, this has a slight odor on application (not bad in my opinion) but it dissipates quickly; not sticky when applied sparingly. The key is to use Amlactin products routinely; if you are sensitive, try the lower percentage products first, and move to the 15% products later. Great products that are effective, accessible and affordable.

Wonderful cream for flaky skin. My dermatologist recommended it. Careful not to get it in an open sore or scratch. It burns! It does NOT burm on regular. Even flaky skin. Really works well.

I like majority of the Amlactin lotions for tackling my KP bumps, but this one would be my least favorite. It gets the job done, but the isnt anything “ultra” about the results. I would suggest getting the daily instead if you hate feeling sticky/greasy after application. This one leaves me greasy until the following day, but I’m still giving it 4 stars because it gets the job done.

I’ve been using this hand cream regularly and have been very happy with the results. My hands feel much softer and smoother, especially in areas that tend to get dry and rough. The cream absorbs well without feeling overly greasy, and a small amount goes a long way. After a few weeks of use, I noticed a clear improvement in the texture of my skin. I would definitely purchase it again.

I have tried everything for my daughter’s KP over the past 6 years (she is 9 now). Now that she is older, she picks at her KP bumps as a nervous habit or perhaps an ADHD sensory thing? Either way, this stuff works the best out of ANYTHING else I’ve tried. I’ve tried numerous creams, lotions, body washes by Cerave, prescriptions sent in by the doctors, Neutrogena, etc. I’ve even tried Clean & Clear salicylic acid spot treatment (helps some when put directly on bumps but doesn’t help with the overall issue). In my mind, I’ve been so silently worried about how the KP will affect her self confidence as she gets older. This DRASTICALLY minimizes the bumps, evens out her skin tone (takes away that ruddy, irritated look) and reveals the beautiful ivory skin she has underneath the KP. She doesn’t like the smell of course, but she has gotten used to the smells of the lotions she has to use over the years because she can see the difference it makes. Warning though, it does make her skin VERY sensitive to the sun, and she is already has very fair skin, so I do recommend using it more sparingly in the summer and always use sunscreen. We usually apply it nightly after her shower. Sometimes, during bad flare ups, she will apply again in the morning before school, but not often. Taking medium temp or cooler showers greatly helps keep her KP down as well (not lava showers like my son and I do lol). To me, this product is completely worth the price. One bottle lasts about 2 months for us.

Updated review 3/22/24 I ordered another of my beloved Amlactin. The tube now has a different look, but I didn’t expect the product to be different. It has an odor which in the many decades I have been using this, I have never smelled. It is gooier and sticky where it used to be creamy and sink in quickly. It leaves a slick of residue on my hands. I used to be able to apply it and the only thing I felt was relief, not a feeling like petroleum jelly would leave behind. I really hope I received a bad tube and that this is not the new, ongoing formula. My dry skin is a real problem and I hate to think that now I need to go through a time-consuming and costly search for a new product. Often a product changes if an ingredient is outlawed or no longer available or just to make a cheaper product, keep the price the same and increase profits. I really hope this is not the last reason. This product is great. I have very, beyond very, dry skin. My heels used to crack and bleed (sorry, gross). If I use this even once a day, twice is better, it makes a world of difference. I use it as a hand cream during the winter. Use it wherever you need it. It’s not thick and doesn’t have scent. I haven’t used it on my face, so I can’t comment on that. I have been using it for so long, I can’t remember when I started. I highly recommend it. It can be hard to find in drugstores. I’m glad Amazon offers it.

The only reason I bought this product is because I stumbled upon a thread from an esthetician about controlling the smell of your armpits. I learned that the cause of the smelly armpits is the bacteria in sweat and I know you’re probably wondering what does this have to do with this product... lactic acid has antibacterial properties and is very gentle on the skin + using this every day can actually help with dark armpits. I am blessed to not have dark armpits however I was not blessed to have horrific onion/Doritos smelling sweat. The day this product arrived, I was quickly getting ready for an errand and I’m not gonna lie, my armpits smelled horrific even though I took a shower last night. I was hauling a** to go run my errands so on a whim… What I did was I got a cotton pad, squeezed out a pea size amount, rubbed it on my smelly armpit and let it dry... What happened next was completely unexpected once I let it dry and I sniffed my armpit there was absolutely no smell. For a quick second I thought I had COVID-19 cause I thought I lost my sense of smell but no that wasn’t the case I smelled my coffee after just to make sure. However I had no time to see how this would last during the day so I dabbed some on my other arm pit let it dry put deodorant on top of it and went about my day. By the end of the day I smelled like nothing with just a tinge of my usual deodorant smell and it was awesome. This product isn’t really intended or marketed as an anti-perspirant (it is NOT gonna stop making you sweat) but the lactic acid in this product is gentle enough to use on your under arm area once a day or twice however my recommendation is to start three times a week and then regularly use it . I am so serious when I say this is the holy Grail of under arm care because using this in the morning before applying my deodorant has changed my life this is my holy grail.

I received only one package and not 6 as it says in the description Ich habe nur ein Paket erhalten, nicht sechs, wie in der Beschreibung angegeben.

I only received one bottle, not six!

This is misleading / fraudulent to me. The website says pack of six, why did I get one only??? Please I think it's better to update the website so you don't keep disappointing people expectations.

Me encanta esta loción. La uso para la queratosis pilaris y funciona muy bien para dejar la piel mucho más suave y lisa. No se ven resultados de inmediato, pero después de unas semanas sí se nota bastante la diferencia. La uso por lo menos una vez al día, normalmente después de bañarme y principalmente en las piernas. Es bastante espesa y tiene un olor particular, como a regaliz negro, pero no me parece desagradable y definitivamente huele mucho mejor que otras lociones con ácido láctico que he usado antes. A mí nunca me ha causado irritación, aunque sí puede arder un poquito si la aplicas justo después de rasurarte. Definitivamente la recomiendo. Para mí sí funciona y seguiré comprándola.

Effective for KP.
