Keratosis Pilaris or sometimes called chicken skin is a condition that causes rough patches and small, acne-like bumps on the skin. It's most often found on the back of the arms. Some people have it on their thighs and even their face.

This condition develops when the skin produces too much of a protein called keratin, which can block hair follicles and cause bumps to develop. The bumps are usually on the arms, thighs, cheeks, and buttocks. They're white, sometimes red, and typically don't hurt or itch. The condition isn't often serious and usually disappears by age 30.

Who's prone to Keratosis Pilaris?

People with asthma, dry skin, Eczema and allergies are more likely to have this skin condition.

It's important that you don't pick, scratch or try to pop keratin plugs. Doing so will only cause irritation.


Keratosis Pilaris responds really well with this cream. I highly recommend it.

#isov Night & Peel cream is the perfect treatment for improving #KeratosisPilaris. This treatment is gentle enough that it won't irritate sensitive skin while also offering the exfoliation that you need to improve the appearance of #KP

I love this for KP but also I use it with a spicule treatment every other night on my face. It's really helped acne scarring, texture and those lines starting to creep up on my upper lip.

This non reactive sleep mask is a peeling cream orb with NFA (natural fruit acids), that help regulate skin metabolism and gently exfoliate dead skin cells & brightens skins complexion. All this goodness in these white little orbs! I am such a skin nerd. You'll be addicted to them just like I am. I love that tingly, refreshing feeling that it leaves my skin. When I wake up, my skin looks bright and glowing.

IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER

Be sure to hydrate with a nice moisturizer and always SPF.

There is no cure for KP, this cream will work on improving the appearance.


You can have Isov Night & Peel cream drop shipped right to you.


Feel free to send me a photo of suspected KP to determine if this Isov Night & Peel will be beneficial to you.
