Q: How often should you apply this? And if you apply too much would there be a side effect?
submitted by Leah - 5 months ago
A: Hi! Most people can use KPS daily but we recommend paying attention to your individual needs. Begin by using 2-3 times per week in the AM or PM, increasing to daily use as tolerated.
submitted bycocokind - 5 months agoBrand expert
Q: Can this be used on the face, specifically ingrown hairs along the jaw line?
submitted by Kathryn - 6 months ago
A: Hi! The KP smoothing stick was formulated and tested for use as a body product. We don’t recommend use on the face because its percentage of AHAs can be too harsh for the face’s more delicate skin.

To all my KP ladies on here! You’re most likely vitamin A deficient! Start your self on cod liver oil or beef liver! As far as this product, from someone licensed in skincare, the ingredients are great! I would buy for soothing & inflammation on top of getting to the root cause! 🩵

almost all of my skincare is from cocokind, and it's done awesome work on my skin!! i have pretty bad kp so when i saw this product i was super excited. i'm not very acne prone, but my skin is very dry. after using this product my skin broke out into hive-like red dots everywhere. it’s a bit shocking to see in the mirror haha. i’m a bit disappointed :(

Unfortunately this product is a fail for me, the only cocokind one that hasn't worked for me. It makes my legs super itchy, like uncontrollably itchy, and hasn't worked to get rid of the KP bumps.
Useless product. Disappointed!

I had high expectations for this product to remove the KP bumps on my upper arms and shoulders. I applied this stick religiously each night for over two months but there’ve been no results. I also dislike the sticky and waxy feeling it leaves on my skin. I’ll try using other exfoliating acids instead.
Dissapointed

Spot tested an area on my arm. There was no reaction so I moved forward with my full arm. Resulted in more bumps. I am sure I personally had a reaction does not mean it causes this reaction to everyone. I did not feel it glided onto my skin well and for the price it did not seem high quality.
Product heck yes, container for application meh

Have always had a lot of bumps from wrist to top of shoulders on both arms. Even went the dermatologist and retinol etc. route to zero improvement. Figured it would always be this way, until decades later found this product after a few years of enjoying other Cocokind products. Noticeable difference first use. By use two or three in the every other day cadence (so not even a week into using this!), the bumps are almost all gone and I have smooth arms. The stick application is easy slide on without getting hands greasy as this does leave arms a little tacky, but this container it is in leaves a lot to be desired, as it keeps sliding the inner tube around, has some product underneath like it might slow leak, and since it slides around, it is hard to advance more product, mainly so not scraping arm at all with the sidewall of the tube applicator. It might have some quirk either from how it fared in shipping or something introduced when I opened it, I don’t know. For the price and the success rate, if I would ever finish the product, I would give one more try, but if second container still was like this, I might pass as I don’t like losing product or having it where I am replacing more because it doesn’t fully advance out of the application tube.
Really really good!

If you're consistent with use you will definitely see improvement. I bought this for myself but my mother loved it so much she took it for herself. She's on her 4th bottle.

I rarely write reviews, but I was so impressed with this! I have always had redness and bumps on my upper arms, nothing severe, but definitely still noticeable. After only one use, I was so surprised to check a couple hours after application to see that my redness was essentially nonexistent, my skin looked brighter and healthier, and my bumpiness was reduced! I also applied it to my thighs, and while the result after one use wasn't as noticeable, there was still an improvement, and I'm sure the condition will get even better with consistent use!

We have dry winters where I live, and I started using this recently. It oesn't help as much as the urea lotion I use, but I think it might be better for summertime when it's humid and I don't need as much lotion. It's definitely easy to apply and the stick formula helps it stay on skin for awhile.

This helps with the bumps on my arms so well! I apply at night after my shower and I swear the bumps are almost gone the next day! So soothing and easy to roll on, this is the only product that’s worked for me. I love it!

I have very sensitive skin and this stick doesn't cause any irritation. It's very easy to apply and I like that you only need to use it a few times a week. I noticed my KP bumps were decreasing but I didn't really know how effective this product was until I stopped using it for a few weeks during a move. Suddenly I had a bunch of angry red irritated KP bumps again on my arms. I resumed using it again and they were quickly gone. I also like that it's moisturizing.

I just recently purchased this to treat the bumps on the back of my toddler's arms. While I have only use this product a couple times and the bumps are still present, he wakes up in the morning with super soft skin. There is no scent, and the application couldn't be easier for a wiggly kid.

I chose to use this product on some dry areas on my feet as well as my kneecaps. It took a little while to see results, but I’m satisfied. I used it consistently before putting on socks and going to bed. I just got my second stick and I was surprised when I finished the first because it initially feels like there’s a lot more product inside, so I thought it would last longer.

Love this stuff! It’s easy to apply, doesn’t smell and I can put clothes on right after with just the slightest bit of sticky. My arms have become suuuuper smooth using this and I’m using a glycolic acid to help with the redness. I’m a fan and will definitely keep buying this stuff!
Finally a product that works!!!

The KP Smoothing Stick has been a game changer! I have struggled with KP on my upper arms since I was 11 and this smoothing stick is the only thing that has ever worked for me! I use it right after my daily shower at night, and my arms have never felt and looked smoother. I also really like the applicator, which makes it easy for me to bring the stick anywhere and occasionally reapply if I am in an especially dry location.

I love the stick form, consistency, and lack of smell of this product but ultimately it gave me a rash on both my arms where used. I would not recommend this product for people who have sensitive skin.

I veryyy rarely write reviews, but I feel like I had to come back and let the world know that this stuff is the TRUTH. I saw it feature on a TikTok showcasing Target skincare must haves and figured I’d give it a shot. I get KP/hairbumps on my booty cheeks of all places :’-( and it gets really inflamed a few days after I wax or shave.. so I purchased this stuff 8/5, it is now 9/12, and when I tell you I noticed a difference 1 week in!!! I knew this stick would be a staple in my routine! One month later, using it consistently, my butt has never been smoother! Even all the old hyperpigmentation has drastically faded! I am so grateful that I’ve found this product, I hope it’s never discontinued because I’ll be a customer for LIFEEE<<<333

I really did notice an improvement to my skin after using a whole tube so I will continue to repurchase. The stick application makes it easy to apply. Cons: the end of the tube is a mess to use, why not make the base it sits on solid instead of hollow so everything smushes into it? Lots of plastic waste in each package (cardboard tube or refillable, please?). It also didnt last me super long, one tube lasted only about a month.
Excellent product, but breaks so easily

This product is truly incredible. I noticed major results within a matter of a week or two. However the product itself needs reformulation or has a design flaw because shortly after receiving the product and loving it, it broke. Even just gliding lightly on the skin it all crumbles off and breaks. Total bummer because the product is everything I needed until it wasnt. Im using the chunks that broke off best I can but I wouldnt repurchase due to the breakage.
