Intensive Healing Body Lotion - Therapeutic Lotion for Extremely Dry Skin - No-Scrub Exfoliator and Moisturizer with 15% Lactic Acid AHA and Ceramides, 7.9 oz (Packaging May Vary)

I used this lotion 2x a day for about 2 weeks and now I am down to 1x a day or even every other day. My feet were rough and peeling like crazy as they do all the time. I had a Dr prescribe me something years ago that kind of worked on the peeling, but the cost of continued use and the small amount prescribed at a time made it a pain to use. The AmLactin just worked so much better and the size of this bottle will last for a while so the value is much better. I couldn't be happier. It seemed to absorb just fine. The only caution would be that when I was using it 2x a day and put it on at night and then showered in the morning, the bottoms of my feet were very slick getting into the shower for a couple minutes. As the title of my review suggest my feet went from somewhat of an embarrassment to something I have no problem having out in the open. The skin looks so much better and feels so much softer now. I will definitely keep using it. As far as the smell people are reporting, I can smell a slight odor when I apply it, but it's on my feet so the only time I smell it is when I apply it. I wash my hands after applying it so I never smell it again. For me, it's not a strong smell even when applying it. I know others have said it's like cat pee and ammonia and it's real strong. It's a unique smell, I don't own cats so I have no idea if that's the same or not, but again, I don't think it's that strong. Maybe if I had to use it on my arms or something like that I may smell it more and be more self-conscious about it, but the results for me I'm pretty sure I'd still use it either way.

This lotion works really well for extremely dry skin. It can tingle a little when you first apply it (especially if your skin is very dry or freshly shaved), but that’s normal with lactic acid. The feeling goes away quickly, and it lets you know it’s working. It leaves my legs and body feeling very smooth and deeply moisturized. The combination of lactic acid and ceramides really helps improve skin texture over time without needing a separate scrub. My skin feels softer and more protected throughout the day. It absorbs well and doesn’t feel overly greasy, and the moisture lasts a long time. A small amount goes a long way, so the bottle should last. There isn’t really a taste factor since it’s a body lotion, but I recommend washing your hands after applying like with any skincare product. Overall, this is a great moisturizer for dry, rough skin and definitely makes your legs and body feel much better with consistent use.

To begin with,I have a genetic skin disorder called icyhosis and some of my family have it. Since using this product I have for ONCE in my life a winter without clawing my skin raw from itching and actually cleared up in 85-90% of my body and I would have been happy with 50%. The stinging you get is normal and the slight smell is normal and I'm a forever customer from here on as all my other stuff I've been using is going in the garbage that's how much I trust this product...only wishes I took pics before and present.

Our dermatologist suggested this for my son’s super dry and scaly hands. We really like how it feels and it cleared them up. Problem is it has a weird smell. Also like a faint ammonia smell. Doesn’t bother my son but I don’t like the smell! But it works so there is that.

I have the driest, most darkest and most ashy elbows! THIS LOTION! I was not fond of the cost because I'm in disability and my budget is tight. I tell you. THIS LOTION DID NOT DISAPPOINT! My elbows are so smooth! I'm telling you SO SMOOTH!! I'm always rubbing them just to feel the smooth. They used to get caught on my clothes and blankets. Not anymore. I try to hide it so my family don't use it because they love it to. I have the intensive healing one. I want to try the others. Since it's on sale I'll grab another bottle. If it was between buying this lotion and going out to dinner with a friend.... I'll spend my money on this lotion. I tried to do a photo but I wanted to show 2. One, my elbow looks great and it looks to be lightening up. My other elbow shows the darkness. The reason it's still so dark is because I had surgery on the left arm. So it's hard for me to apply this lotion to my right arm. I tell you what I've applied to my left arm. Make me wanna curse. This stuff is good. Over 30 years of rough and dark elbows and I finally found something! Great for your feet too!!

Amazingly GOOD!! I’m unsure if my 4 year old is ok to use this product, but I was so desperate. It’s been 8 days since I started using the product and his skin is so so much better! It kinda stings my hands but he doesn’t feel bothered by it. To me it kinda smells like a hair salon chemical? Like maybe dye? But it may just be me. I will be using regular moisturizer and alternate because of it. Just unsure of it being safe. Especially because of how well it worked! Because I’ve tried everything since he was a newborn and asked doctors and haven’t gotten any answers. So I went to tic tok and seen a “doctor on there recommend this one along with many others. Decided to try this and see how it went! No regrets 😭

I'll start with the positives. This stuff works great. Like incredibly great! I have very dry skin and this stuff has made major improvements in my crispy, gross, bumpy, long-suffering winter skin after just a few days of use. It's truly amazing. Moving on to the negatives: Other reviewers who say it has an "odd" smell are apparently very kind people, or don't actually have real noses. This stuff stinks to high heaven. It has, for me, an intolerably bad smell. Like a combination of ammonia + cat pee + something petrochemical-ish + maybe some notes of rotting carcass. It's horrific, the smell. Like I want to run away from my own self while I apply it and I actively hate smelling myself after I've put it on. To be fair, the smell *does" dissipate after about 30 minutes, but I still smell it, faintly, many hours after having applied it, and then I want to run away from myself all over again. I haven't asked my husband if he can smell it on me, because I'm scared to know his answer. As a more neutral, though not entirely positive, point of feedback, it goes on sticky and tacky, but that does diminish some after a while, so that you'll be just a little bit sticky by hour 4 and your underpants should cease to stick to your butt cheeks at that time. As to the price: Sure, it's relatively expensive, but it does work beautifully, and perhaps smelling like something that's dead or dying is worth it to you! To summarize: - Pros: This stuff works beautifully and lives up to its advertised promises. I desperately want to love it. - Cons: The price you'll pay for beautiful skin is smelling like a rotting BCE dinosaur corpse that's been doused with 40 pounds of very old and dirty cat litter.

This lotion has been a lifesaver for my extremely dry skin, leaving it feeling soft and hydrated all day. The creamy texture absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue which makes it easy to apply any time of day. I love that it provides immediate relief while also improving skin texture over time with consistent use. The gentle formula is suitable for sensitive areas and does not irritate my skin at all. Overall this lotion delivers deep, lasting moisture and has become an essential part of my daily skincare routine.

I don’t know if it works

Inmiddels gebruik ik deze lotion ruim een week nu voor mijn door de jaren heen beschadigde, schilferige, droge en vooral dunne huid. Zoals ik al las staat deze lotion bekend om weer volume terug te kunnen brengen in de huid. Het hydraterende van deze lotion werkt vanaf dag één, en dit tweede effect wacht ik de komende tijd af. Twee flessen is prima om het lang genoeg te proberen in ieder geval. De lotion is mild, zowel in het gezicht als op het lichaam, trekt compleet in in een redelijke tijd en gemakkelijk te gebruiken.

Only problem is the smell!

Consistency is key when using KP creams. I've found that applying it regularly, usually once or twice a day, yields the best results. Over time, I've noticed a reduction in redness and a significant decrease in the number of bumps. While it may not completely eliminate the condition, it certainly makes it much less noticeable.

I've always had KP on the back of both my arms since I was little that only got more prominent as I grew older. I have tried so many alleged cures, ingredients and products for over 25 years since I was 11. Ammonium lactate products are by far the most effective treatment for *my* KP (compared to urea, salicylic acid, glycolic acid and others that are touted as cure for KP). Unfortunately, Amlactin is the only brand I have found to make the most effective, if not the only, ammonium lactate products. And the brand is only formally distributed in the US, making it pricey to purchase outside the US. However, this is, by far, the only product that not only smooth out the bumps, but also reduces the looks of the darkened spots the bumps left behind. It does have a distinctive smell (acidic earthy scent) that dissipates overtime (and not overpowering) but I'd take that any time for my extremely smooth skin.
