Rough skin on arms?

Those who have never experienced fighting against vitiligo will probably never understand the pains and sufferings brought by it. After nearly 7 years’ living in nightmare, I wish I could have the opportunity to talk my experience fighting vitiligo to friends who are still struggling with vitiligo. I hope I can help them restore their confidence and get rid of this pain as early as possible. Now the white patches of my neck disappeared, there are only a few white dots left on the face. My disease is basically cured, and I am very cheerful. Here is the information about the hospital that cured my disease:vitiligotcm

Well I've had this since I was a child and never realised what it was. Just thought I was unlucky and that it was my skin. Sugar scrub and a loofah reduced it for me but I can't afford that anymore as it cost over £20 and we are mostly reliant on my salary. :( I was always embarrassed about it and always wore a cardi or shrug. It was Helena Rubinstein or some such make. The loofah takes away the dry skin. Someone like body shop might sell something like that? Try there? If you get any joy, please let me know! Good luck!

Actually, I've just looked on the body shop website and there are loads for between £12.50 - £14.

I'm sure you could do a home made scrub. Google it! Probably way cheaper
