I also pick at my legs. It doesn’t help that I have keratosis pilaris. I tried using an epilator for a while, but I kept ending up with ingrown hairs that I would then pick at some more.

I tend to pick at my legs when I’m very anxious.

One thing that I’ve found recently is AmLactin. If I’m consistent with it, I barely have anything to pick at on my legs. I’ve been thinking about trying the epilator again and then using AmLactin 24hrs after, and continue with it daily.

I have this too and I've used AmLactin Ultra Triple Action Alpha Hydroxy Acid Hydrating Body Cream, which was recommended by my dermatologist and while the little red bumps are still there, they are much less noticeable and my skin is so much softer!

I've also used DermaDoctor's KP Duty line and found it not as effective for it's really high price.

There's several products in the amlactin line, you can get it in stores, but here is one example (of many) on amazon and apparently it has lactic acid, btw.

Neutrogena hand cream stuff

I have folliculitis as well - get Amlactin! I call it my magic lotion. My hair follicles are huge and dark and I swear this lotion reduced their appearance. Total skin changer!

It sounds a lot like Exfoliative keratolysis, though I recommend consulting a derm to know for sure.

I don't know what other lotions you used, but I've tried working hands and I personally found the texture to be dry and starchy. Treatments for this recommend creams with lactic acid, so Amlactin may be worth a shot. It might be greasier than you want, so try using it before bed and see if that helps.

Also avoiding solvents, harsh cleansers, maybe even heavily fragranced things on your hands could help as well.

Ive started using whipped shea butter with tea tree oil and it's worked wonders for my acne. Shea butter is extremely moisturizing and has a comedogenic rating of 0, meaning it does not clog pores. The tea tree oil is a great additive due to it's anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties which helps clear and prevent acne. You can add other good stuff to it as well like rose oil or vitamin E.

First I mix the shea butter with my regular hand mixer until its smooth and fluffy. Then I measure about 6oz of the whip and add in 10mL of 100% tea tree oil (about 1 little bottle). I only use this at night as it doesn't fare well under foundation.

During the day I use Gold Bond Strength & Resilience. It doesn't 'eradicate' pimples but it makes my skin smoother and keeps me moisturized without being hella oily.

For my severe breakouts I use 50/50 AmLactin and benzoyl peroxide cream as an overnight treatment. I dont recommend this because the benzoyl peroxide has the potential to exacerbate acne scars

There are quite a few options. I've used 3: Alpha Hydrox 10% Lotion, MUAC Glycolic Acid Body Lotion and Amlactin.

Amlactin is sticky and didn't feel good on my skin at all. I didn't use it long enough to really gauge it's effectiveness. I just couldn't stand that tacky/sticky feeling.

MUAC Glycolic Acid Body lotion works amazing on my PIH. I've been dealing with compulsive picking for years on mostly my arms and this has been the best product I've ever used for healing PIH and redness by far. The downside is it's not very moisturizing so if you have dry skin you'll likely need something else to go along with it. I also have to use quite a bit to get good coverage because it doesn't spread all that well. So while it isn't too expensive per oz I run out of it fairly quickly.

Alpha Hydrox 10% Lotion is what I would recommend to most people. It's more moisturizing than MUAC's lotion and soaks in quickly. It never feels greasy or sticky. It also spreads better than MUAC and I don't have to use as much. The downsides are it's not as good for PIH and it causes some clogged pores for me (which can be a big problem with my skin picking habits).

I didn't notice the smell /u/Khokhmah described in any of the lotions.
