I had atopic dermatitis when I was young, so the creases of my arms were always itchy, and scabs formed there.
The itching was worse on humid days, and even on dry days, I had to constantly moisturize my rough skin.
My facial skin changed from oily to dehydrated, but it seems my overall skin type has been dry from the start. My skin felt rough to the touch, and because I had a lot of body hair, it felt even more flaky and dry.
Even though I apply it to my body as a mild moisturizer, my skin texture doesn't seem very good. It also dries out immediately. I wondered why, and it turned out my skin isn't in good condition.
teenagers During my puberty, I wondered if sebum had gotten stuck on my body or if I had developed acne, so without knowing any better, I soaked my body thoroughly and scrubbed vigorously with an exfoliating towel. However, surprisingly, less dead skin came off. I also still remember how, even after applying a generous amount of body lotion, my skin would be dry, red, stinging, and burning the next day.
It wasn't until my 20s that I found out this skin condition was called keratosis pilaris. It would break out like goosebumps, and it also looked like there were hairs embedded in my skin like dots.
20s Initially, to manage my skin texture, I only shaved my legs and showered with body wash. However, since I didn't see any improvement, I started using an exfoliating towel lightly once a week or more frequently. I also looked for a soft one to use.
This 30s It even continued until a few years ago, and for the past few years, I have been buying body peeling products to exfoliate my skin. I also heard that using a vibrating cleanser on areas with keratosis pilaris is good, so I occasionally use it on my legs. I don't think the keratosis pilaris is unsightly, but I still want to achieve a smooth feeling.
Actually, I apply makeup and look in the mirror every day to immediately address any imperfections on my face. However, I tend to pay less attention to my body. I am curious how everyone else takes care of their body.
How do those of you who, like me, have suffered from atopic dermatitis or keratosis pilaris, or have extremely dry body skin, manage your skin? I've seen users using scrubs, and I would also like recommendations for less irritating products.
I want to know how to make rough body skin smooth!
