Summary: How do you use this product in the summer?
Comment: I bought this product to help with my bumpy elbows and back of my thighs and rare end. However, during the summer I shave my legs quite often. A lot of times I will shave everyday. The directions state that you should not use on recently shaved skin. So I must ask, how and when can you use this product to see results? I tried to use it the evening and even the next day after shaving and was in total pain from the stinging and burning of my skin.

Summary: Pretty much a miracle...
Comment: After struggling with KP on my upper arms for about 3 years, I was not expecting any miracles. I tried a variety of ways to lessen the bumps and consequent scarring: scrubs, prescription topical ointments, oil pulling, etc. I had pretty much accepted the fact that wearing anything sleeveless or short-sleeved were things of the past. I heard about the Glytone kit and was rather skeptical. The previous reviews seemed to suggest that the lotion was the key element, so I only purchased it. After just one week, I saw amazing improvement. Suddenly there were no new bumps, and my scarring was starting to fade. I wish I had known about this product 3 years ago, and I was finally able to wear short sleeves again! I'm hoping that by the end of the summer, I will be able to go full on sleeveless.
Here is my routine that has proved effective:
While still in the shower, I use a cotton ball soaked in a mild astringent to gently slough off dead skin cells. I then put a tiny amount of the lotion onto my arms. The lotion is extremely thick, so I hardly have to press the pump to get enough. I can see this bottle lasting me at least six months, which makes it extremely cost effective. I think it is very important to put on the lotion while still in the shower. The warm air and steam will keep the skin pores open and will help the lotion be better absorbed. I also exercise everyday to help sweat out further skin impurities, try to eat a balanced diet with lots of vegetables, take a multi-vitamin, and drink lots of water. I had to change a lot of things in my life to get my KP under control, but with this product's help, it was possible and totally worth it.

Summary: Didn't work at all for me
Comment: I have pretty severe keratosis on my upper arms, and I had high hopes for this product. Unfortunately, it hasn't worked at all for me. I think it may have actually worsened my condition. I used it exactly as directed for two+ months, but still no improvement--not even a little.

Summary: Good product, worth the price.
Comment: I don't have K.P. severe I would say a mild to medium. The scrub is just too much for my skin but the lotion has really helped me out.

Summary: Good results
Comment: Using both the body wash and lotion has definitely smoothed my skin on my arms after only a few weeks of use. I have noticed that initially after applying the lotion, there is some redness that fades after an hour. I do have sensitive skin so that may be the cause of the initial redness. This is a good product if used on a daily basis. But if you forget to apply lotion, the bumps will come back immediately. The body wash doesn't have a strong scent and the lotion is a little thick so it will take a little while for it to fully absorb into the skin.
