Milk Baths: Whether you pour a few cups of whole milk into your bath, or use milk bath products, milk baths can make a drastic difference with your keratosis pilaris. The lactic acid helps to soften the skin and can help minimize the bumps.

Fatty acids are important for general skin care, and many people that suffer from keratosis pilaris do not eat enough essential fatty acids. Try to incorporate more fatty acids into your diet by eating things like salmon. I also suggest taking fatty acid supplements.

Most exfoliaters are actually too harsh for people with keratosis pilaris. They'll actually just irritate the bumps causing inflammation or redness. Instead of using harsh scrubs and exfoliaters, use an exfoliating lotion. This help remove the outter layer of skin cells, without irritating the skin underneath.
