Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I have been using this soap twice a day for four months. I also now use a 50 SPF sunscreen as a moisturizer/make-up base in the morning.
If you have rosacea, do not leave the house in the morning without sunscreen. (Also, a good idea if you do not want skin cancer.)
I was using LaMer moisterizer, but it's very expensive (like $150 a jar) and loved the cream, but he liquid made my rosacea worse. Honestly, I have tried lots of very mild soaps and nothing helped.
Another nurse at work recommended this product. When I read the whole thing I laughed out load at the skin mite stuff. Whatever. But her skin was so much better, I gave it a try. The rest is history.
I wash my face in the shower in the morning. I also do not spray water directly on my face and turn the temperature down to about 85 degrees at most. Put the soap on with my hands, not a scratchy cloth, and leave on for 30 seconds while I finish my shower. (The tricky part is not opening your eyes this whole time.)
I then put on 50 spf Banana Boat sunscreen. Then I still do use the LeMer make up.
I have found that using the soap twice a day is a bit drying, so I also might opt for using the Olay make-up wipes at night, since they also remove mascara. I also like the wipes you get at Target called something like Product 7. My skin is a bit oily, so if you have dry skin, put a moisturizing cream on after you wash with this soap.
Anyway, my rosacea is about 80-90% gone. I have read reviews on this product that people think it burns or works for a few weeks and then stops, but my skin has really improved. It does have kind of a weird smell. But now my face has no little red bumps at all. Still red tones in some areas, but totally smooth so make up coverage isn't lumpy. I am Scottish/Irish descent, and have been told Northern Europeans get rosacea more frequently. I had the "butterfly" rosacea on the sides of my nose and on my chin and a little on the center of my forehead.
I went to my dermatologist yesterday and she was stunned at how much better my skin looks and she even showed me a photo she had taken of me when she originally diagnosed my rosacea a year ago. A HUGE improvement. She had recommended several of the "dermatologist tested" milk soaps and creams for me then, but none have worked as well as this soap.
Skin mites causing rosacea? Heck. I don't care if chocolate covered kangaroos cause it, I just wanted it GONE, and this soap has really helped!
