A-Derma Creme De Soin (Skin Care
Cream
A-Derma is a sister company of Avene I
believe, and their
unique selling point is the inclusion of Rhealba oat extract as an
anti-irritant. This moisturizer is reasonably inexpensive compared
with some
moisturizers here in the UK, around 5.80 GBP for a 50ml
tube. It is also sold in a larger size, 150ml.
I have
moderate rosacea and very sensitive combination skin which often
itches, burns or breaks out when I try out new moisturisers. This one
seems OK after a few weeks of use so far.
In the United Kingdom,
large branches of Boots sell it and Garden Pharmacy may stock it too
- I have not seen it anywhere else.
Price: 5.80 GBP
Size: 50 ml
Ingredient List:
Water (Aqua), Petrolatum, Glyceryl
Stearate, PEG-12, Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Flour (Avena Sativa),
Cyclomethicone, Glycerin, PPG-15 Stearyl Ether, Stearic Acid, Benzoic
Acid, Bisabolol, Carbomer, Chlorphenisin, Disodium EDTA,
Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Hydroxide.

Aderma creme de soin
This cream has proved excellent for my two children who have extremely sensitive skins. It has not been used for rosacea but for eczema (typical eczema and butterfly eczema). It has helped in both cases. Unfortunately, the only place where I could find it (Boots) told me quite a while ago that they do not stock it anymore. Hence my search on the internet.

Rosacea Subtypes
Subtype 1: Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea
characterized by flushing and persistent redness, and may also include visible blood vessels.
Subtype 2: Papulopustular rosacea
characterized by persistent redness with transient bumps and pimples.
Subtype 3: Phymatous rosacea
characterized by skin thickening, often resulting in an enlargement of the nose from excess tissue.
Subtype 4: Ocular rosacea
characterized by ocular manifestations such as dry eye, tearing and burning, swollen eyelids,
recurrent styes and potential vision loss from corneal damage.
Rosacea Stages
Pre-Rosacea
the first cardinal sign of rosacea: blood vessels dilate to more stimuli, open wider and stay open for longer periods of time compared to normal
persons. No visible damage can normally be seen.
Mild Rosacea
begins when the facial redness induced by flushing persists for an abnormal length of time - usually 1/2 an hour or more after a trigger. Those who
have frequent pre-rosacea flushing are highly susceptible to progressing to mild rosacea. Some of the common triggers for a facial flush are heat,
cold, emotions, exercise, topical irritants and allergic reactions.
Moderate Rosacea
as facial flushing becomes more frequent and intense, vascular damage occurs. This can result in long lasting redness, swelling and inflammatory
papules and pustules. Telangiectasia (damaged micro blood vessels, often visible on the surface of the skin) may be noticed in the areas where
flushing is worst.
Severe Rosacaea
characterised by intense bouts of facial flushing, severe inflammation, facial pain, swelling and burning sensations. Sufferers may develop
intolerance to products they were able to use before. Also inflammatory papules, pustules and nodules may be present. Some experience a bulbous
enlargement of the nose, known as rhinophyma. This is just a guide, you may of course experience symptoms outside these ranges.
