I have severe Keratosis Pilaris. What can I use to make my skin look better?

I have tried a lot of over-the-counter, intense, moisturizers and lotions. Nothing has worked. "Scrubbing my skin off" (as has been suggested before) only makes it much worse. If you have overcome KP or improved it in any way, please tell me what you did!

I have severe Keratosis Pilaris. What can I use to make my skin look better?
There are several new elegant non-smelly high concentration urea based lotions or creams that applied twice a day for at least 6 weeks will significantly reduce the roughness. KP is a marker for a genetic condition called atopic dermatist so you will never be able to eliminate the condition completely.


Good Luck! Your Friendly Dermatologist!
Reply:Arbonne's Baby Care line is perfect for the sensitive skin, pure, safe, and beneficial. They have a body wash, lotion, body oil, etc. that are botanically-based and pH correct, dermatologist tested, non-sensitizing, non-irritating, and formulated without nut oils. They're formulated with shea butter which is a unique botanical that soothes, moisturizes and protects skin. With its key components of vitamin A and E, all types of skin (including sensitive) can benefit from shea butter’s supreme, conditioning effects. Its non-toxic makeup and skin-tolerable trait make it ideal for use on sensitive skin. The products are formulated withOUT chemicals, dyes, fragrances, mineral oil, alcohol, wax, acetone, etc which are harmful ingredients and cause irritation and dryness. Products that contain mineral oil clog your pores and sit on the top layer of your skin like saran, just getting wiped off over time. These give little to no benefit. You need a pure water based product. Arbonne also has a great intelligence conditioning oil and rejuvenating cream that can be used whenever you feel it's necessary to relieve the discomfort and itching. I recommend trying a product out first to ensure that it's beneficial before spending your money. I would be happy to send you a free sample if you would be open to giving it a try. Good luck.
Reply:I think Retin A would take them off. I know that it takes off just about anything scaly. Here is where I order from:

Another idea: Hydrocortisone takes off those scaly pre-cancerous spots that come up on your face and hands. Hydrocortisone is the main ingredient in Prep H. Here is some that is stronger than what you buy in stores:
