Keratosis pilaris (KP or “chicken skin”) happens when hair follicles get clogged, usually on the arms, thighs, bottom, or cheeks. It feels rough and bumpy but often improves with over-the-counter acid-based moisturizers.

There are two main types of acne: 1) blackheads and whiteheads, and 2) pimples and cysts. Each requires different treatments, but good over-the-counter options are available if you know how to use them.

Mask-ne is common in the age of COVID. It is caused by masks clogging pores and irritating the skin. Treatment is pretty straightforward, and good over-the-counter options are available if you know how to use them.
