Osmotics Calming Cleansing Mil
this is a gentle cleanser that leaves my face feeling soft and clean.
i live in new york where cold winters are very drying on my sensitive
rosacean skin. the calming milk helps counter the dryness, yet it is
also effective in removing makeup and enviornmental 'dirt'.
although it is expensive, i have tried a myriad of products
and think this is one of the best.
if you have special skin
care needs this may be worth a try. if you don't like it Osmotics
will refund your money, no questions asked.

Unfortunately not for me :(
My skin has gotten more resilient since Yag txs, but I still get hot very easily when I use something it doesn't like...At the outset this did a great job of dissolving sebum plugs & cutting through very hard to remove sebum patches I've had from seb derm. After a few days, however, it was clear my face did not like the salicylic acid & film this leaves on. My flushing threshold is lowered significantly & I'm still recovering from a pronounced reaction several weeks later.

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.
