I am so happy to find this site!! I just found out that my 4y/o has KP. He has it mainly on his cheeks and just a small bit on his upper arms. The dermatologist prescribed hydrocortisone 2.5%. I am concerned about using this on my son. We have been using it twice a day in a thin layer for 5 days, but the KP seems worse. He also suggested using cetaphil. If anyone can give me some advice regarding treatments for this age, I would greatly appreciate it. I would love to find something without a prescription.

You came to the right place, danakay! Many of us have had success with Arbonne's children and infant's line called ABC. It consists of a hair and body wash, a lotion, a sunscreen, an oil, and a diaper rash cream. It's all-natural and made entirely of plants and herbs. It's also really mild. I've read more than one post about Cortizone being too harsh for sensitive skin and/or children.

I noticed a HUGE difference on my 3 year old with the wash and sunscreen alone. I've not had to use the other products, but then, her condition was comparatively mild (not to her!). I just started using it on her because we'd gone mineral oil free in our household (after learning how horrible it is) and one day I realized, "Hey! She only has one bump left! (on her rear)" I put 2 and 2 together and realized that we'd been using the ABC line for about a month. Another poster, Janae, says it cleared up her child's KP too. I actually have 4 other moms (who are friends of mine, not on the forum) who saw my daughter and then used it on their children to have all sorts of things go away: KP, eczema, dry skin, and even "baby acne" If you'd like to try it, you can email me at allisonsullivan@insightbb.com or check out my other threads, "Clearing up with Arbonne" or "Before and After Pics are Here" (pics of my KP, not hers, I wish I'd known to take before pics of hers...). You can search for them in the General Discussion forum by using the search tool at the top mid-right of the page. Good luck!

Thanks for your advice!! It helps to know that you have friends that these products have helped. I will make a point to check out the Arbonne site. How long do these products usually last?


THANKS

We ran out of the wash after 3 months. We still haven't run out of sunscreen (because we don't have to use it as frequently, obviously) and it has been 4 months. We haven't even opened the oil or lotion yet, because I use the Aromatherapy "Unwind" Massage oil in her bath on occasion to help her settle down for bedtime. She hasn't really needed any moisturizer aside from that.

Oh, I almost forgot, you get a free gift when you order the set, Intelligence Rejuvenating Cream, that is really taking the red out of a particularly nasty scar on my hand. It also turned a light sunburn to tan in about 2 hours time! Some people have had luck using it on stretch marks, too (I'm going to try that when I get everything else under control)... Just thought you'd want to know

Where do you buy the products? Online?

yes. go to www.arbonne.com and click "shop online" When you select your 1st product, a screen will come up that says to enter Consultant ID (they won't let you order without one). You can use mine #16032446, or email me and I can sign you up for your own so you can save 35% right off the bat (and on every order for a year). There's no strings either way.
