Best for Keratosis Pilaris: First Aid Beauty KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub With 10% AHA

“This scrub combines both physical exfoliants (pumice buffing beads) and chemical exfoliants (glycolic and lactic acids) to effectively help reduce KP and uneven texture,” says Dr. Engelman. She likes that it’s allergen-free and formulated with artificial fragrances, so it’s an ideal option for those with sensitive skin.
“This body scrub is a total lifesaver when it comes to renewing my sometimes bumpy upper arms and acne-prone shoulders. With the help of both glycolic and lactic acids, this scrub works overtime to erase dead skin and oil buildup whenever my skin needs a pick-me-up,” says Glamour contributor Talia Gutierrez.

While some scrubs can be hard to remove, leaving a sticky feeling, this one rinses off easily and provides lasting hydration thanks to the avocado and almond oils, and is a crowd favorite amongst Glamour editors and reviewers. “I always keep the Tree Hut exfoliating scrub in my shower because I like that it has all-natural ingredients and doesn’t leave skin feeling stripped, thanks to the shea butter in the formula. It has a dreamy sandalwood/vanilla scent that I’m in love with,” says style blogger and Glamour reviewer Stephanie Pernas.

Dr. Spearman highly recommends this scrub because the beads are super fine, meaning there’s no chance of microtears. “I really like this mild exfoliating gel because it’s one that you can actually use everyday, unlike other scrubs,” she says. It contains hydrated silica plus glycerin and aloe vera for a very gentle (yet worthwhile) exfoliation.
“Though it’s technically a face exfoliator (the directions make no mention of the body), I like that, as the name suggests, this formula has really fine scrubbing particles that are great for sensitive skin,” says Glamour contributor Brigitt Earley. “It’s great for my dry skin, too, since it’s not too abrasive or stripping. I found it left both the skin on my face and my body nice and soft. Plus, at this price point, I appreciate that it’s a multi-tasking product that saves space in the bathroom. The only downside? You don’t get that same sensory experience you get from body washes with delicious scents—this one is pretty basic in that department.”
