THE SCIENCE BEHIND STRAWBERRY
Keratosis pilaris is characterized by two distinct processes that require targeted treatment:
1. Follicular hyperkeratinization: Excess keratin builds up and plugs hair follicles
2. Perifollicular inflammation: Redness and irritation around affected follicles
Our proprietary formulation addresses both mechanisms:
Glycolic Acid (6%) - The smallest AHA molecule, glycolic acid penetrates deeply to dissolve the intercellular "glue" holding excess keratin cells together. Research in the Journal of Dermatological Treatment demonstrated that 10% glycolic acid reduced KP by 62% over 8 weeks.
Salicylic Acid (.5%) - This oil-soluble BHA effectively clears follicular impactions while providing anti-inflammatory benefits. Studies published in the Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology confirm its effectiveness in reducing follicular plugging and redness.
Lactic Acid (1%) - Works synergistically with glycolic acid while increasing skin hydration. Clinical studies in the Archives of Dermatological Research show lactic acid improves skin barrier function while exfoliating.
Niacinamide (2%) - Reduces inflammation and redness by inhibiting inflammatory cytokines. Research in Dermatologic Surgery demonstrates niacinamide's effectiveness in strengthening the skin barrier and reducing post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Urea (2%) – Gently exfoliates and hydrates by breaking down hardened keratin and increasing skin moisture levels. Clinical studies in dermatological journals show urea’s effectiveness in softening rough texture, improving skin barrier function, and helping reduce follicular buildup in KP.

Frequently asked questions
What is keratosis pilaris and what causes it
What is keratosis pilaris and what causes it
Keratosis pilaris (KP) is a common skin condition characterized by rough, bumpy skin with small red or flesh-colored bumps. It is caused by excess keratin production that forms plugs in hair follicles. Research indicates that KP has a genetic component and is associated with atopic conditions like eczema. While considered benign medically, KP can cause significant aesthetic and psychological distress.
How is Strawberry different from other KP treatments
How is Strawberry different from other KP treatments
Unlike most KP treatments that contain only a single active ingredient (typically either lactic acid or salicylic acid), Strawberry combines four complementary ingredients at their optimal concentrations to address both the structural (bumps) and inflammatory (redness) components of KP. Additionally, our formula is pH- balanced precisely for maximum efficacy without irritation.
Is this safe for sensitive skin
Is this safe for sensitive skin
Strawberry is formulated to be gentle enough for most skin types. The inclusion of niacinamide helps strengthen the skin barrier and reduce potential irritation from the acids. For sensitive skin, we recommend starting with application every other day and gradually increasing frequency as tolerated. Always patch-test before full application.
Will Strawberry help with strawberry legs after shaving
Will Strawberry help with strawberry legs after shaving
Yes! While Strawberry was primarily developed for keratosis pilaris, its formulation is equally effective for follicular keratosis that occurs after shaving (commonly called "strawberry legs"). The salicylic acid component helps prevent ingrown hairs while the anti-inflammatory ingredients reduce post-shaving redness.
How quickly will I see results
How quickly will I see results
Most users report noticeable improvement in skin texture within 2-4 weeks of consistent use, with significant reduction in both bumps and redness by 8 weeks. Individual results may vary depending on KP severity, consistency of application, and individual skin biology.
Can I use this on my face
Can I use this on my face
Strawberry is specifically formulated for body use. While the ingredients are commonly used in facial products, our specific concentrations are optimized for the thicker skin on the body. For facial KP or similar concerns, please consult a dermatologist.
Can I use this while pregnant or breastfeeding
Can I use this while pregnant or breastfeeding
While our ingredients are considered generally safe, we recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before using any exfoliating acids during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
