Hey, I'm new to posting (although I've been lurking for months) and have a huge beauty problem. The backs of my upper arms are red and splotchy, and nothing I have tried works.
I thought it was that weird skin thing (keratosis pilaris) that is really common on the upper arms, that causes bumps and redness. I've been exfoliating and using deep lotion for weeks, and now my arms are ultra-smooth, but they are still really, really red.
I've also tried sunless tanning lotion, and although it is working well on the rest of my body, the redness keeps showing through.
I don't have time to visit a dermatologist between now and the wedding, so I was wondering if anyone else struggled with this, and what they did to fix it?
Any help would be super-duper appreciated!
Thanks
