Aveeno Ultra-Calming Daily Moisturizer
 

Not really for sensitive skin.
I have Rosacea as well as very dry flaky skin. I found that this moisturizer in fact did not really moisturize...I also found that it was quite fragranced for something that is supposed to be suitable for very sensitive skin. I can somewhat use it on areas of my face that is not affected by Roasacea, or on my neck, but that's about it.

Makes face burn
I also found this to be heavily fragranced. It would sometimes trigger rosacea flare-ups. It also burned and stung when I put it on. I had to toss it out.

Not for sensitive skin/noses
Turned me red upon application (though all lotions do, initially) and remained noticeably heavy/greasy all day. I have a sensitive nose, but this was a little more unpleasant than most scented products - like bug spray. A little too heavy to comfortably apply makeup over, and did not lessen redness after 4 months of twice-daily use. Gave it a fair trial, then I tossed it.

fragrance is a bad thing
This product makes the flare-ups even worse because of its fragrance and alcohols. Please do not use it , and help it to trigger your symptoms. I had known this until I used this for atleast a week.

Good for my Lupus related red
I have used this product for almost 3 weeks, twice daily and it is great for me. I have a lot of Telangiectasia and this product has visibly reduced the redness - actually there are many times when it is almost completely gone. I have suffered with red cheeks for a long time and now I feel like I do not suffer anymore. I am 41 and have paid particular attention to my skin since being diagnosed with Lupus. Some of the redness might be old sun damage but either way, this product works for me. I have very sensitive skin and often break out in hives when applying lotion of any type. This product does not cause hives and it doesn't burn or make my skin too dry. I have actually stopped wearing foundation all together and just put on a little bronzer and I am beautiful. Hope your experience is as good as mine.

Immediate severe reaction
I do not recommend this product for rosacea sufferers. It caused an immediate, severe flair up of my rosacea. It had been dormant for 2 weeks. I think it is the sun screen chemicals that are the problem.

I got more red using this!
I used this product for a long time and it made things worse. It got more red when applied and did not seem to help at all. I have now been using Good Skins All Calm at Kohls and it is wonderful! There is also a money back guarentee!

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.
