Not so great for me!
When I first started using this cream it felt soothing on my face. But after a few weeks I started noticing increasing burning sensations and started getting more red patches. When I washed my face, what was underneath was more dry and flaky than ever. This is a good cream for other areas of the body but not my face.

Works Good For Me
Recommended by one of my Derms it is soothing to my face. It is the only thing I have been able to tolerate since getting this disease!! I put some on my fingers and just pat some on the dry and stinging areas. Works good on the rest of my skin also.

It's great @ 1st but then.....
I have to agree. I loved this lotion at 1st and thought I had found the answer. Not so much. After about 3 weeks it burned my face when I put it on and can you say itchy! I still use it on my legs and arms but not my face so I rated it a 1. They also changed their formula and I'm not sure if it is paraben free anymore. :(

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.
