AmLactin Moisturizing Body Lotion, 14.1-Ounces

5 Reviews

1. I ordered the 12% AmLactin, but the product sent to me was a different one. Be sure the product you receive says 12% specifically, as displaced on the picture on the website.

   Amazon agreed to take the product back and send me the right one via one day shipping. Hopefully this time the right product will be sent.

2. This isn’t a fake review posted by a seller.

   I am a very satisfied buyer who feels compelled to write a review because the product worked so well for me. AmLactin is awesome–It worked really well on my keratosis pilaris in only a few days (I also used an exfoliating glove which costed more than the moisturizer itself). It’s also much cheaper than other stuff I’ve tried.

   Definitely try it out, it’s worth it.

3. I have keratosis pilaris (aka chicken skin), with acne and sensitive skin. I have tried natural remedies for a long time now with very minimal results, and I was reluctant to try this because of the cost and the ingredients. I bought my bottle at CVS, and they also make a store-brand version that is slightly cheaper, but I had a coupon so I tried the name-brand first. I put it on before bedtime and my skin soaked it up, but I didn’t enjoy the slightly greasy feel or chemical-plastic like smell. I am happy there is no added fragrance though. The next morning, ALL rough patches on my skin, even my feet and elbows were as soft as can be. My skin definitely feels smoother but it doesn’t look less bumpy yet. The bottle recommends twice a day, so I will try this regimen for 2 weeks and see how it goes. After the second application in the morning, it didn’t soak it up as readily so a little went a long way, but my skin is glowing and I actually look more tan – not from the lotion, but the fact that my skin was actually moisturized and wasn’t clinging to dead cells. I don’t consider it to be a cure and I don’t plan to use it every day, but I AM impressed. I would recommend this to anyone with KP or very dry skin, and to start off doing it at night only. Oh yes, but I had some little irritated spots from shaving and picked acne scabs, and when I put this on right after, it stung but only for a moment. Best of all, my skin STAYED moisturized!

4. At first I was surprised and happy to find this available online so I tried a bottle. At first, it appears to be the same as what was prescribed to me by my dermatologist. The one thing I did notice was that it was not as thick as the prescription version…then I read the label. Ingredients appear to be the same, but the first ingredient is WATER. So beware if you purchase this, it is probably a watered-down version of what you would get from the prescription version. I suspect it may or may not work for you depending on your skin condition.

5. I have used this product for Keratosis Pilaris Rubra Faceii (the type of KP that involves reddish bumps) all over my arms. Unfortunately, it makes the inflammation worse. While it (perhaps) may be good for Keratosis Pilaris Alba (the type of KP that doesn’t have redness on/around the bumps), it worsens my type of KP since it inflames the skin. Produced a rash on my arms that put me through itchy, painful, burning hell for a week. It hurt my skin so bad.

   On a positive note: Good moisturizer though. Just worthless treatment for KP.

   What a waste of much needed money and hope for a cure for this damned skin ailment! (
