Free & Clear Liquid Cleanser
 

Cleans Great
I've got less P&P since I've been using this cleanser, it cleans great. Also removes the dead skin cells, so my skin feels very smooth. Removes also eye make-up very well, without irritating the eyes. The only negative point is that it dries a bit, so I can use it only ones a day. Not suitable for very dry skin.

Anonymous - Subtypes 2 and 4 - Mild Rosacea
Rating

50/50
It seemed like a good cleanser at first, and it is, but after a while it seemed too much for my oily sensitive complexion. Is very foaming so less is better, I noticed some redness and peeling after using it a couple of days and I will stop using it and switch back to the Cetaphil Normal to oily cleanser to see if this cleanser was the culprit. I want to specify that I used Metrogel at night, Rosanil every other night and apply the Free and clear lite lotion during the day.

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.
