General information: So if you’re looking for a moisturizing cream that will help you smooth out extremely dry, scaly skin, go with AmLactin Rapid Relief. But if you want a moisturizer that will double for dry face and body, maybe opt for CeraVe Renewing SA Cream instead. It might contain less strong acids, making it suitable as a leave-on facial moisturizer. However, the fact that it’s been formulated to be potentially gentle enough for use on the face also means that it may be less effective at moisturizing extremely dry, rough skin.

AmLactin AP cream may cause you to become sunburned more easily. Avoid the sun, sunlamps, or tanning booths until you know how you react to AmLactin AP cream. Use a sunscreen or wear protective clothing if you must be outside for more than a short time.

Byrdie contributor Rachel Dube has written for some of the biggest beauty publications out there. Although she’s a fan of regular salon pedicures, she combines the treatment with foot cream application to prolong the benefits (and keeps calluses away) as long as possible. However, some research suggests that the active ingredients in AmLactin products may help relieve some eczema symptoms. Ammonium lactate and ceramides may help retain moisture, relieve dryness, and improve the appearance of a person’s skin. If your doctor has directed you to use this medication, remember that your doctor has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects.

But first, you should know that all of the dermatologists we spoke with agreed that if you’re dealing with severe calluses, your best plan of action is to head to a medical professional for a proper removal procedure. When it comes to removing layers of skin, safety is paramount — especially if you have diabetes or sensitive skin — and treating calluses with DIY removers has the potential to lead to infection if handled improperly. Lactic acid is one of those chemistry terms that is slowly gaining fame among normal humans, by making its way into everyday language. All of the other, more obscure organic compounds probably envy its fame. If you’re into fitness, you probably associate it with DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness). And if you’re into skincare, you probably know it as an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that lends many benefits to your skin. Today I’m going to focus on two lotions that contain lactic acid. My dad thinks that both products are going to be effective because they contain similar moisturizing ingredients, but Product 1 (AmLactin Rapid Relief) holds a slight edge because it also includes petrolatum. When my hands get really dry, I apply a moisturizing lotion and then add Vaseline as a protective layer on top, to seal in the moisture. I also love Vaseline Intensive Care Lotion Advanced Repair, which already includes Vaseline (petrolatum) mixed into the formula. AmLactin vs. CeraVe: Which lactic acid lotion should you choose? Like a pedicure in a jar, this sweet-smelling concoction seals in moisture and revives dry, tired feet. All you have to do is brush it on and immerse your toes in super soft hydration. When treating calluses the goal is to help hydrate the skin and remove excess dead cells," says Dr. Zeichner.
