Hi hoping someone can help. I get these horrible reddish purple bumps on my legs and I can't seem to get rid of them. I've tried shaving, waxing, hair removal cream, exfoliating but nothing works!!

Its worse on my thighs like above my knees, sometimes its itchy but you can always see the bumps even if there not red. Please can anyone make a suggestion it gets me down so much :-( I would love to be able to wear dresses without tights but I just have to keep them hidden, thanks x

It sounds like Kerosis pillaris. Hope I have spelt it right. I have it on my upper arms and thighs. it is not as bad as it was when I was in my teens. I have found that soap and glory thermal shower scrub and loccatine 100% shea butter makes my skin smooth. I still have a few red marks but no were near as visible. I am also on the pill and I have been told this helps. x
