Great Gel Moisturizer A great facial moisturizer at a decent price. Comparable to Clinique's Moisture Surge Gel for Men - except without all the cost. Very non-irritating and great after shaving. -- Ian - - Mild Rosacea

good for oily sensitive skin This moisturizer is lots of antioxidants in a silicone base. The silicone base hides skin imperfections like filling fine lines and evening out skin tone but the look is completely natural - you would look younger not with makeup. It can't hide more serious imperfections though. Think of it like a light invisible makeup with antioxidants. The base also will mattify oily skin for half a day if your skin is not too oily. The gel didn't clog my pores nor irritated my skin. When you apply it close to eyes there is a little irritation for 5 mins which copes from something that evaporates and then no irritation at all. Highly recommended and the price is good!!! -- orangehrzn - - Pre-Rosacea

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.
