Eucerin Redness Relief
 

Comfortab;e, but no relief
I used this to help alleviate the redness from my rosacea. It did not dry my skin or make my face feel tight, however it worsened the redness. The licorice additive that it advertises turns out to be a rosacea trigger.

Ok, but not there yet
I loved this cleanser at first, within a few days it helps to bring the redness down! However I find it doesn't cleanse as well as I would like. While its nice and gentle for my face, it doesnt seem to do so well deep cleaning the pores.

I have tried this product and find that it is very mild and seems to clam the skin, but like another reviewer, I have found it does not cleanse very effectively. It is a clear gel that does not lather and is difficult to rinse. Still, I prefer it to the Aveeno foaming cleaner which has a strong odor which I didn't like.

Very itchy
Tried it after my dermatologist suggested it. It felt okay at first, the skin didn't tighten and dry up as with other cleansers. But the next day, I felt my skin becoming very itchy and almost inflamed. I stopped using it right away and went back to my old reliable cleanser.

alternative facial cleanser
I have not used the the eucerin cleanser yet, precisely because it did not seem to foam up or rinse off well. But I have found a similar, but pricier product that some might find helpful. Lancome carries a line called "Bright" for evening out the skin tone. In checking the label, it does in fact contain the same licorice derivative that eucerin contains. On a whim, I tried it and it seems to work well. The redness appears to have mostly faded to a more neutral (if not perfectly uniform) skin color. And the light cream formulation foams up slightly, removes makeup effectively, and rinses completely. Now I'm experimenting with adding the Eucerin lotion to the regimen - at first try it seems to be itchy especially around the cheek area. Hope my two cents is helpful. I expect we'll be seeing more and more cosmetics adding the licochalcone to their products.

Eucerin Redness Relief Cleanse
Excellent, cleans without dryness or tightness. For the first time in 20 years, no blemishes. Stage was moderate now is mild. Nothing the dermatogist prescribed did anything. Love it!!

Didn't see any difference
I bought the whole product line and used it for a month. It did not make it worse, but not any better either. :(

Not good for allergic skin
My dermotologist gave me some samples of Eucerin Redness Relief. After using it for one week it make my rosacea worse; it left my face with red blotches interspersed with yellow streaks! I stopped using it and went back to Cetaphil skin cleanser, Almay lotion and Physician's Formula green liquid makeup. I suspect that I'm allergic to something in the Eucerin Redness Relief, it certainly isn't good for sensitive allergic skin.

Ehh, Not for me.
This product removed my makeup ok but it actually burned my face especially right under my eyes and upper cheeks. Because of the burning it made my face more red.

Did not help
I am a male sufferer of mild to moderate Rosacea. I have been using this product for the past month and I have not seen any improvement in my skin. Also, I find it difficult to rise off, so I end up rubbing and splashing my face more and perhaps I am doing more damage that good.

Best Cleanser
I've tried literally every cleanser out there and this works the best for me. There is nothing in the product to make anyone break out-or make Rosacea worse-so for those folks it was something unrelated to the product's ingredients. The special ingredient (licorice) is a calming ingredient. My face never feels dry or irritated, and it says that it will take a month for improvement with redness-but I see that already. I don't know about getting makeup off as I'm a guy, but this cleanser really cushions the skin and works great.

Liked alot
I liked this one alot. It was gentle and didn't dry out my face. It also removed makeup and eye makeup. My favorite redness facial cleanser so far. Redness is less. So for as much as a cleanser can do I think this is the best drug store one I've tried.

Not for me
I had high hopes for this product but it didn't work for me. I liked the consistency and natural smell, but it made my problem areas worse. I tried it twice but after increased redness each time, I returned it.

Good for am use
This is a pretty good cleanser. I can't use it in the evening to remove my makeup because I don't feel that it cleanses well enough for that. I keep it in my shower to use as a morning face wash and have good results using it this way. It cleanses without drying. Neutral results-did not make my redness worse or better. I won't re-purchase only because I prefer a cleanser with a bit of lather.

From bad to worse
Since this product was advertised all over my dermatologist's office, I thought it must be a winner. Not at all. My face became very irritated, burned, turned even redder and I got more bumps. A rosacea sufferers worst nightmare! As another reviewer stated, licorice is an irritant. Unfortunately I didn't find that out until after I used this product.

Finally - something works!
I have moderate rosacea and I have literally tried every product imaginable. I finally found something the has helped the redness and my acne is much better. I've been using the entire line for almost five weeks and I'm amazed. I've been asked, "What are you using", daily. I'm so excited I finally have something that works. I wouldn't say it's perfect, but it's definitely helped me. Hope others have the same luck. I know how frustrating rosacea can be. Take care, all!

Disappointing
I spent over 60.00 on this line of products and it simply does NOT work. The cleanser is mild - so much so that it did not clean my skin and not only caused breakouts, but also caused my pores to enlarge. I did not find that the cleanser, the lotion, nor the night cream reduced my redness at all - what a waste!

My skin looks & feels better
I have been using the full Redness Relief skin care line and I am happy with all of it...the night cream I am not sold on and at times I feel like I wake up more red than when I went to sleep -- other nights it works...so who knows. I will say that the cleanser, moisturizer and skin correction lotion have all left my skin blemish free, smooth, clean and feeling better than it has in years! I highly recommend this product line to anyone who has struggled with mild / moderate rosacea. It is generally very soothing and easy on the skin. I am sad that the two drug stores that were carrying it in my area no longer have it. I am in search of another store where I can continue using these products.

was better than some
This cleanser was effective at removing make-up, but didn't seem to really reduce my redness. I have skin that is very sensitive to cleansers and reacts with flakeyness and this product was better than most others I tried, but still caused some reaction. Overall it was just ok.

Too many parabens
Eucerin Redness Relief does help with toning down the redness, but after a few years of using this, I just noticed that there are more than 3 types of parabens in the ingredients. I stopped using it last month as I also noticed I was getting too many skin tags and red cherries on my face and neck -- possibly from the multiple parabens?

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.
