CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser
CeraVe™ Hydrating Cleanser gently removes dirt, oil and makeup without disrupting the skin's natural protective barrier. It contains ceramides, naturally occurring components of the skin that play a key role in enhancing and restoring the skin's protective function. Also included are vital humectants and emollients to replenish and retain needed moisture. The unique ingredients in CeraVe™ Hydrating Cleanser help restore damaged skin and keep skin healthy. CeraVe™ Hydrating Cleanser is an ideal first-step in a daily skin care routine. With its patented Multivesicular Emulsion (MVE) formulation, CeraVe™ Hydrating Cleanser helps restore and maintain the skin's natural protective function. MVE works by trapping ingredients within multi-layered vesicles that are slowly released, layer by layer throughout the day, penetrating deep into the skin to moisturize and nourish. CeraVe™ Hydrating Cleanser is non-comedogenic and non-irritating.

CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser
 

Wonderful Cleanser
My dermatologist (who also has rosacea) recommended this cleanser to me and also my daughter (who has acne). It is creamy and a little bit goes a long way. There is no scent, which is nice, and it feels good on the skin. It does a good job of removing cosmetics, excess oil, and dirt. The price is reasonable and a bottle lasts a long time. I highly recommend this product to everyone.

good stuff
I started using this stuff pre-steroid rosacea (I have dry, sensitive skin) and it's worked great. I had eczema patches on one cheek and this was slightly irritating til it healed, but even during healing of steroid- rosacea, it has cleansed me completely comfortably. I really recommend it for anyone with dry skin.

very mild but effective
Wow! After trying several of the cleansers recommended here, I finally found one that worked for me. This is a very mild cleanser. It leaves your face feeling clean but soft. In two weeks, it has reduced my rosacea from moderate to mild. I expect it will get even better with time. Best of all, there's no salicylic or glycolic acid to irritate the skin. I also use the CeraVe moisturizer, but find the moisturing creme does a better job than the lotion. Sometimes I use the lotion in the morning and the creme overnight.

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.
