huge rave if you have KP!
I got KP after I gave birth & read online reviews about Paula's Choice 2% beta hydroxy gel & how it works amzing to get rid of KP. It cleared me up in a few days! I love it so much! I hated being so self conscious about it & spent about $200 on crap products that didn't work like kp duty & vani cream & some prescribed cream. I've wanted to share this sooner but I haven't really been on lif much lately. This is the gel
paula's choice 2% bha gel

Re: huge rave if you have KP!
Do you have any before and after pictures?
I have had KP my entire life and while I've learned to live with it, I would LOVE to get rid of it! I like that they have $0.80 samples so I can try it without spending $19 before I know if I like it.
Now, do you have to use it forever? Once it is cleared up, do you still use it everyday?

no, I never thought to take before & after pics but the after is exactly the way I was before developing KP after DS birth. Nope, I stopped using it the day after I noticed that the bumps were gone.

Yes, I read some of the reviews and some people didn't like the feel of the gel. I am more of a lotion person, so I decided to go with that. I figure if I don't like it I can order a sample of the gel next. I love that I can play around at $0.80 a pop and see which product works best!
Thanks so much for posting!

Re: huge rave if you have KP!
I don't have KP but my DD does. She's 2.5. Do you think something like this is sensitive enough for use on a child?

I'm really not sure. I would call the Dr & ask before I used it on her.

Re: huge rave if you have KP!
I tried the lotion for 4-5 days (have one more day left of my sample) and no change. Maybe the gel is more effective? I will order some samples of that and try again. Did you exfoliate in addition to the gel? I have a great buffing bar from Lush. Maybe I should combine the two?
ETA: I ordered this one because they specifically recommended for KP
If this doesn't work, I will go back to Lush's Dream Cream, which greatly improved my KP but didn't get rid of it totally. The only reason I stopped using it was because I ran out of it and didn't want to buy more since it was $25 for a tub. I figured I'd wait til summer was here when I actually show my arms. Well, summer's here!
