My chicken skin/KP progress 🥹

Skin Type: Dry

Age/Gender: 23, Female

Current Skincare Routine:

After taking a bath:

- Dove Sensitive Soap

- Urea lotion (yung may salicylic acid - I can recommend if u want)

Main Concerns:

  1. Chicken skin/keratosis pilaris, especially on my arms and legs
  2. Rough and bumpy skin texture
  3. Improving the overall texture and appearance of my skin

Budget:

Not looking for product recommendations based on budget. I’m mainly sharing my experience and what I’ve learned during my KP journey.

Additional Info:

I’ve had chicken skin/keratosis pilaris for years and used to think I just had to live with it. I’ve tried different things before, but I wasn’t always consistent.

Recently, I started learning more about KP and decided to focus on a simple routine and consistency rather than constantly switching products.

After taking a bath, I use Dove body wash and apply a urea body lotion while my skin is still slightly damp. It is also recommended by my derma kasi need talaga urea for this.

I’ve been doing this consistently and have noticed that my skin feels smoother and the bumps appear less noticeable compared to before. It’s definitely not completely gone, but seeing the difference in my progress photos made me realize how much consistency can matter.

I’m sharing this mainly to document my journey and hopefully help anyone else who might be dealing with chicken skin/KP too. I’m not saying this routine will work for everyone, but this is what I’ve personally noticed so far.

Help: Foul Smell on UA area of Clothing

Hi! I just wanted to ask for advice on here,

Skin Type: Combi
Age/Gender: 22/F
Main Concern: Super sweaty sa UA

I’m 22(F) and I sweat A LOT mostly on my underarms,,, ive been on the pink dove roll-on deodorant for a long time and during the beginning of the year, I noticed that it has made my UA stink! And it has come to the point where it (the stink) sticks to my clothing.

I have changed my deodorant to Belfour (the spray) maybe 4 months ago? and it has been working really well, however, I noticed that whenever I sweat sa UA ko, my clothing alone starts to stink and whenever I change, I smell my UA and it doesn’t smell, it’s just the clothing alone, so any similar experiences or advice to help a girl out? Like how can I get rid of this problem ?

Hi! I wanna be more consistent in applying sunscreen pero di ako makapag reapply without ruining my make up. Since i have a trip din in vietnam which is apaka init din gusto ko na maging consistent sa sunscreen. I use the Roundlab sunscreen before applying make up.

help: flea/tick bites + hyperpigmentation?

just got back from abroad when I suddenly started getting super itchy bites, so first thought ko talaga bed bugs 😭 then I noticed ticks on my dog and realized baka doon ko pala nakuha. pina-stay ko rin kasi siya with a friend while I was away, so baka doon niya rin napick up 😭

already saw my derma and 10 days into dexamethasone + topical ointment. thankfully halos wala na yung kati, pero parang nagd-darken yung bite marks lalo??

for those who've had flea/tick bites before, nag-dark din ba yung marks niyo before they faded? nawala naman ba eventually or nag-iwan talaga ng marks? 😭

Anyone experienced something similar?

Around 3 weeks ago, nagkasakit ako (fever, headache, sipon, and body aches) tapos hinayaan ko lang kagatin ako ng lamok kasi tbh wala akong energy that time para alisin ganon haha my bad 🥲

After that, yung usual na nakikita ko na bumps kapag kinagat which is typically itchy but tolerable naman. Tapos naging ganyan na (photo attached), mas halata ang redness kapag kumakati. Fortunately, intermittent naman and tolerable yung itchiness kaya di ko naman nakakamot talaga. Kaso nabobother ako sa itsura rin 🥲

I am using hydrocortisone once a day only if super kati talaga.

How to get rid of deep pitted scars?

Gender: Female
Main Concern: Years Long Deep Pitted Shingle Scars
Budget: Any amount would do as long as effective, pero if possible, sana student friendly
Additional Info: Nung nasa grade school ako, nagka-shingles ako. Kinalikot ko siya hanggang sa matanggal yung scabs niya kasi sabi sakin magheheal naman daw ito. Years have passed, nasa college na ako, pero hindi na ito ever nagheal. I have been insecure about this ever since I was young. Akala ko paglaki ko pababayaan ko nalang ito, but there are still people pointing it out. May alam ba kayong paraan para matanggal or kahit mabawasan appearance nito? May mga marerecommend ba kayong derma clinics para dito?

Additional Info: I woke up having these. From what I gathered, I’ve switched to a new set of beddings just 2 weeks ago (could this be it?) and I’ve used a lotion I got from a hotel months back (I used it from my travel kit, had a weird feeling during application but went with it).

I’m seeing a dermatologist tomorrow.
