I've noticed the same thing about exfoliating... Gave that up a long time ago, well except for my calves when I shave my legs. My KP affects nearly my entire body.

I didn't see the point of treating it with chemicals that would irritate my skin, it's already bad enough and as soon as the treatment stopped the KP would be back. Might have to pick up some coconut oil on the next shopping trip...Thanks for the suggestion.
