Dermatologist Reveals How to Get Rid of Goosebumps on Your Hands Overnight.

According to The Sun: Pilar keratosis (or, as it is also called, chicken skin) occurs when the skin produces an excessive amount of keratin. Keratin is a natural protein that protects the skin from infections and other harmful factors. When it accumulates around hair follicles, it forms plugs that block the follicles, leading to the characteristic bumps associated with pilar keratosis. These bumps can be flesh-colored, red, or brown, and often feel rough to the touch. While the exact cause of chicken skin remains unknown, it is believed to have a genetic component. Doctors also think that dry skin, hormonal changes, and some skin conditions, such as eczema, can exacerbate symptoms.

The dermatologist revealed the secret source of 'chicken skin' for £7.70 at Boots pharmacy – a special product with glycolic acid called The Ordinary’s Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Solution. According to Dr. Mark, 'once you start applying glycolic acid and a thick moisturizer to your hands, your chicken skin bumps will disappear overnight.' Dr. Mark prefers the glycolic acid toning solution from The Ordinary. A 100ml bottle will cost you just £7.70 at Boots pharmacies. 'With a concentration of 7% glycolic acid, this tonic rejuvenates the skin, revealing a natural glow and improving skin smoothness,' the statement reads. 'The smartly formulated product aims to enhance skin texture over time, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines for a more refined look. Enriched with ginseng root and aloe vera, it provides visible firmness and brightness. For optimal results, incorporate this tonic into your evening routine by applying it to a cotton pad and gently sweeping it over your face and neck. You will notice improved skin texture and a more radiant appearance with consistent use.'
