Also-called: Glycerol | What-it-does: skin-identical ingredient, moisturizer/humectant| Irritancy: 0One exception to the rule: this formula. “The gentle physical exfoliators are combined with both glycolic acid and lactic acid for simultaneous chemical exfoliation, and the formula is nourishing to avoid irritation, she says. As for skincare, it makes the skin silky smooth, creates a subtle gloss and forms a protective barrier (aka occlusive). Also, works well to fill in fine lines and wrinkles and give skin a plump look (of course that is only temporary, but still, it'snice).

Look for formulas that are both oil-free and non-comedogenic. This way, you can rest easy knowing your treatment won't end up causing more clogged hair follicles or pores—or worse, bring acne and blemishes into the mix.

These little red dots have a white-tipped bump (like a classic pimple), though they usually don't affect all of your hair follicles uniformly. So if you're dealing with all-over dots—like, every single hair follicle on your shin and thigh looks dark or red—you're likely dealing with KP, not folliculitis. Both products are a great choice if you want a lighter weight cream to combat dryness. If you have eczema, CeraVe has the slight edge over Eucerin since the CeraVe lotion is free from all ingredients that could inflame eczema.

It's also loaded with fatty acids(mostly linoleic (50-74%) and oleic (14-35%)). The unrefined version(be sure to use that on your skin!) is especially high in linoleic acid that is great even for acne-prone skin. Its comedogen index is 0, meaning that it's pretty much an all skin-type oil.
