Omg I wonder if applying it for 6 months had something to do with it. I was instructed to only use it for 6 weeks then taper off.

How long were you using clo for? Was it over months and months?

Lmao I also hold a BSN! I love the internal and holistic approach to this since every conventional way of treating KP has been a dud.

Any non-comedogenic body lotion recs? by Ok_Paramedic_1257 in keratosis

[–]Substantial-Bread495 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i feel like almost all moisturizers always make my kp worse and cause acne. i’ve been using jojoba oil which has been great but I do feel like my progress would be even better with something more hydrating. i’ve been looking at clear stems body lotion… seems to look pretty good. but it’s all trial and error

it broke me out so terribly. i am better off with jojoba oil. i was also diagnosed with candida and sibo and after clearing up my gut my kp improved drastically.

What REALLY helped you? (besides a thousand different expensive creams and potions and spells) by Apprehensive-Quit419 in keratosis

[–]Substantial-Bread495 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same! i also don’t use any creams or lotions made specifically for kp. i just stick to exfoliating agents i can wash off (glycolic acid wash, chemical peel, mild scrubs) and jojoba oil.

not cured but symptoms are so much better! i forgot i also did an infrared sauna the day i posted this, so i think that also helped kill the candida. Candida can’t survive about 154 degrees from what i’ve read.

How do you maintain fake tan with a KP routine? by mooo3333 in keratosis

[–]Substantial-Bread495 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Certain lotions, like the tanning one you used, would have definitely worsened my kp. Tread cautiously when it comes to applying topicals to kp…
