REMEDY for Body Bumps, KP Exfoliating Body Moisturizer with Retinol

I enjoy watching Dr Shah on his YouTube channel Doctorly so thought I’d give his Remedy brand a try. Wow, I didn’t expect this particular product to have results in a week. I apply twice a day to my legs and almost all of the strawberry appearance and bumps are gone. I look like I have the legs of a 20-year-old despite being decades older. Obviously this is a bit pricey but for the results I’m getting, I’m sold. Ready to try other Remedy products now to based on how well this turned out.

I haven’t had the chance to fully try the Remedy for Body Bumps | KP Exfoliating Body treatment yet, but I wanted to share my first impressions. I picked this up because I’ve been looking for something to help with rough, bumpy skin (KP), and the ingredient list really stood out. It’s formulated with exfoliating ingredients that are known to help smooth texture and improve the look of skin over time, which is exactly what I need. The packaging feels clean and easy to use, and the product itself has a nice texture from what I’ve seen so far. I also appreciate that it’s designed specifically for body bumps rather than being a general moisturizer. I’m excited to start using it consistently and will update my review once I’ve had more time to see real results.

I never write reviews, but I just have to warn people about this product. I have had very mild KP that comes and goes. It's never been so bad where I feel like I can't wear a short-sleeve shirt. For the past couple of months, I have been eating an extremely clean diet to try to figure out what triggers it. It cleared up almost entirely, but I still had a few little bumps so I decided to try this. BIG MISTAKE!!! Within a week, I had the biggest flare-up I've ever had! It was gross, big red bumps with pus coming out. I know it was the product because, again, I have basically cut out all processed foods and nuts, so my diet is super clean. I was attending my son's graduation and was so bummed to not be able to wear the outfit I had planned because I felt so embarrassed about my arms. The picture I attached is a week after the bad flare up. It's settled down a lot, but as you can see, it still doesn't look good. BUYER BEWARE!

The bottle and pump are sturdy and easy to use. The moisturizer is thick, rich, and feels really luxurious on the skin. It works very well for my KP and leaves my skin feeling smooth and hydrated. I normally use Amlactin, which also helps with KP, but it doesn’t feel as nice or as moisturizing as Remedy. Remedy feels much more nourishing, and because of that I’ll definitely be repurchasing. I’ve seen some reviews mention the scent, but I personally like it. It smells like shea butter to me—noticeable at first, but pleasant and it fades fairly quickly.

First off, I have not used this product for any good amount of time so I cannot speak it’s’ efficacy. However, the packaging and bottle quality is a big miss. I received my first bottle and upon taking out of the amazon package, the box was torn, bottle was dented, the dye of the box came off on the bottle and then my hands. Taking a closer look, there was dried lotion under the head of the pump which led me to believe it was used or defective. I started a return and ordered a new one. The new one also came in a damaged box and dyed bottle but at least it seemed new/clean. I went to use the new bottle and realized that the lotion was coming up through the bottom of the pump head which was likely the reason for the previous bottle problem. I’ll stick with this one, although not sure how messy it will get. The product, itself, seems nice and lightweight and if it works, I’ll look past the bottle issues.
