Hi im new to this site ive just recently found it, and im 14

Ive had KP since i was born, you can even see it in my baby pics.
I have it on my face, front arms, back arms, thighs, a bit on my chest, my butt , and a little on my back.

Ive asked my doctor about it (guy doctor so it was hard to ask him!) he asked me to show the places were i had it including THE REAR PART!
......and then he laughed........and said i had inside out pours.....oh i wanted to kill him BEFORE, when i found out 2 years ago that it was KP JUST IMAGINE THE HATRED! lol

i had tried everything, EVERYTHING!

This site has helped ALOT, alot of the stuff ive already tried tonight like the tanning stuff tried it with sunless tanning (im pale..like cracker pale)

but id like to know about exfoliating and moustirisers

im pretty good at just telling ppl off when they ask me about it so that part im fine with but its like i lose 10 points of my self esteem everytime they mention it..

advice? THANKS MUCHO!

Hi Dark,

Welcome to the KP Forum. One suggeston -- next time someone comments on your skin, just think what a cool person you are inside and that you know better than to make such an uncalled for comment, even if they don't. You will gain those 10 points of lost self-esteem back when you realize what a neat person you are.

Keep in touch and let us know what you try to reduce KP.

thanks Kebod,
erm as for the advice really thanks.

as far as my experiments go sun really helps me, or just tanning out of a bottle helps it alot

ah since most of my experiments are weird, oatmeal works (reeeallllllllly goood too)

Dark,

I always have less KP in the summer when I start wearing sleeveless tops. A sun tan really helps diminish the bumps, maybe because Vit. D makes a difference. Some have said that it is the humidity, not the sun, that makes the difference, but I used to live in New Mexico in desert conditions of extremely low humidity, and my KP was always less in the summer.

Do you use oatmeal as a scrub?

kebod

well not plain oat meal ill usually mix somekind of liquid body scrub with it

yes i scrub with it and use a lofa thing it really helped on my arms, on my legs not so good though
