- How does it compare with CeraVe SA Cream?
- The cream is thicker and better for very dry or stubborn areas like elbows and heels. This lotion is lighter and spreads more easily over large areas, and it adds retinol for extra smoothing.
- Can I use it every day?
- Yes, but start two or three times a week if your skin is new to retinol or salicylic acid. Build up as tolerated, and stop if stinging or peeling persists.
- Does it help keratosis pilaris?
- It can. Salicylic acid softens the keratin plugs behind the bumps and retinol supports smoother turnover. Expect gradual change over weeks, not overnight.
- Can I use it on my face?
- It is formulated as a body lotion. Facial skin is thinner and more prone to retinol irritation, so a face-specific product is the safer choice.
- Do I need sunscreen with it?
- Yes. Retinol makes skin more sensitive to the sun, so use sunscreen on exposed areas during the day.
- Is it safe for children?
- No. It is not intended for babies or kids because of the retinol and salicylic acid.
