Hello, I'm new

Hi all . Wow, what a find. I didn't realise a KP site existed.

I've lived with KP since I was in junior school, the kids used to ask me what the bumps on my arms were. I didn't know so I just said I had overly productive pores. I really only found out what it was in my mid 30's.

It seems to be getting worse with age. It used to be quite local to the front of my thighs and my backside, my forearms and back of my upper arms but it's spreading. I now have it on my stomach.
I tried exfoliating but it seemed to make it worse so I stopped. Should I carry on?

A couple of products caught my eye whilst browsing around:
Neutrogena Clear Pore Treatment-
"This treatment is specifically formulated to clear blocked pores – a key cause of blackheads, spots & other blemishes. This invisible, leave–on gel works deep–down as you sleep to clear blockages, drawing out imbedded oils, dirt & bacteria & sloughing off rough, dead skin cells. It acts on the blemishes you already have & helps prevent new ones from forming. So, with regular use, skin is clearer, healthier–looking & less prone to spots. "

I thought the bit about "sloughing off rough, dead skin cells" would be important.

Neutrogena Concentrated Hand Cream - Unscented
"This Norwegian formula hand cream provides immediate relief & protection for even seriously dry or chapped hands. It's so concentrated that just a dab of this glycerin–enriched formula leaves hands noticeably softer & smoother after just one application."

Best wishes
