The 10 Best Body Treatments for Red, Bumpy Skin and Keratosis Pilaris — Starting at $11
If you have red bumps on your skin that you can't seem to get rid of, I feel your pain. I've had little bumps on the backs of my arms, around my jawbone and on my thighs ever since I was a little kid. But believe it or not, this skin nuisance is very common; according to the Cleveland Clinic, 50 to 80% of teenagers and 40% of adults will develop it at some point during their lifetimes. We're not alone!

The bumps don't hurt, but as you know, the redness is irritating — pun intended! While the prominence comes and goes naturally, there are best practices to manage these rough patches. One of my tricks is to use a moisturizer specifically formulated for issues like KP.
If you type "bumpy skin moisturizer" into Google, however, you'll realize the skincare labyrinth of the internet is a whole different beast. So you don't have to sift through, I gathered ten of the best red and bumpy skin lotions, creams and treatments that'll help smooth and retexturize rough skin. Many are tested by yours truly! And with summer around the corner, I can't think of a better time for smooth, glowy skin.
