Customer Reviews of AmLactin Moisturizing Body Lotion, 14.1-Ounces
Customer Review: Very odd....
Summary: 2 Stars
Someone gave me a bottle of this lotion before, and it was like a miracle on my ultra-dry skin. It stung a little upon application but worked almost instantly to give me baby soft, glowing skin. It smelled bad, but I assumed it was due to the fact that the product was almost expired according to the date. I threw it away shortly thereafter.
A year later, I bought this from Costco. It smells a lot better (hardly any smell), and expiration date is a long way off, but the lotion seems more watery, and doesn't seem to work at all! In fact, it seems no better than any other watery lotion without any alpha hydroxy. It also doesn't sting at all. Perplexed. Wondering if they changed the formula, or if this is some knock-off. May try buying from elsewhere just to compare, or else will ask my dermatologist. Disappointed.
Customer Review: Doesn't work for Keratosis Pilaris
Summary: 2 Stars
I have used this product for Keratosis Pilaris Rubra (KPR - the type of KP that involves reddish bumps) all over my arms. Unfortunately, it makes the inflammation worse. While it (perhaps) may be good for Keratosis Pilaris Alba (the type of KP that doesn't have redness on/around the bumps), it worsens my type of KP since it inflames the skin. Produced a rash on my arms that put me through itchy, painful, burning hell for a week. It hurt my skin so bad.
On a positive note: Good moisturizer though. Just worthless treatment for KP.
What a waste of much needed money and hope for a cure for this darned skin ailment! :o(
Customer Review: Not the same as the prescription.
Summary: 2 Stars
At first I was surprised and happy to find this available online so I tried a bottle. At first, it appears to be the same as what was prescribed to me by my dermatologist. The one thing I did notice was that it was not as thick as the prescription version...then I read the label. Ingredients appear to be the same, but the first ingredient is WATER. So beware if you purchase this, it is probably a watered-down version of what you would get from the prescription version. I suspect it may or may not work for you depending on your skin condition.Customer Review: Didn't help.
Summary: 1 Stars
I used this on my arms and thighs where I have keratosis pilaris. I would apply it after showering at night and in the morning for around two months. I saw no change in my skin. I had a lot of faith in this lotion in the beginning before I started it because my dermatologist recommended it to me, but was let down by this liquidy lotion.
