Keratosis Pilaris, or KP, is a common skin condition caused by a buildup of keratin that plugs hair follicles, resulting in rough, bumpy patches. Managing it requires a specific kind of exfoliation that can dissolve this buildup effectively yet gently.

The Ultimate Texture Transformer

The LUSTRA Face Moisturising Keratolytic Cream (LUS-006) is exceptionally well-suited to tackle KP precisely because its key ingredients are what dermatologists recommend.

The Keratolytic Power Trio:

  1. Urea: A unique ingredient that is both a powerful keratolytic and a humectant. It works by dissolving the intercellular matrix (the 'glue' holding dead cells together) to soften the rough keratin plugs, while also drawing moisture into the skin.
  2. Lactic Acid (AHA): This gentle surface exfoliant helps to smooth the skin and improve overall texture and brightness.
  3. Salicylic Acid (BHA): Being oil-soluble, this acid can penetrate into the hair follicle to dissolve the clog from within.

This powerful exfoliating trio is balanced in a comfortable cream base with Niacinamide and a gentle retinoid (HPR) to support the renewal process and deliver a smoother, clearer complexion. It's the ultimate solution for anyone frustrated by rough, bumpy skin.
