Hi - I have rosacea - not severe, I would say moderate. I have a lot of redness on my nose and that somewhat branches out to my cheeks. The MB products I have are the makeup remover soap, chamomile cleansing lotion, control cream, calma mask and aloe moisturizer. I noticed a lot of the redness calmed down for a while, but I really think it hasnt been as calm since Ive been using the aloe moisturizer which I bought later than the anti-redness kit. I cant use the control cream alone in the mornings because it has a tacky feeling on my skin and I use a powdery mineral makeup. Is there something you can recommend for a moisturizer that would be good for day and night to use in connection with the control cream that wont aggravate the rosacea and that doesnt feel sticky - I have to have a non-sticky surface or my mineral makeup wont go on smoothly and Im def. not ready to give it up! Also, do you have a recommendation for an eye cream - Im starting to get dark circles and lines as I am aging (Im almost 36). Thanks so much for your help! Until I threw the moisturizer in the mix I was really seeing a difference in the redness - more a difference than any prescription products I have tried! ...Read Response

Thank you for your interest in Mario Badescu Skin Care. We’re glad to hear that you’ve been enjoying the skin care line so far. If you think the .Aloe Moisturizer (SPF-15) is too heavy for you. I would suggest using the Control Moisturizer For Oily Skin. It is oil free, absorbs quickly without leaving a sticky residue and is great for sensitive skin prone to redness. For best results, always wait a few minutes to allow for absorption before applying your make up. Regarding an eye cream recommendation, one of the best combinations would be using 3-4 drops of the Cellufirm Drops underneath the daily Hyaluronic Eye Cream. The Cellufirm Drops help to minimize the appearance of fine lines while The Hyaluronic Eye Cream hydrates the delicate under eye area as it retains your own skin’s moisture levels. It’s the perfect anti-aging combination.

I am a relatively new user of your products. I have Rosacea and I have the Chamomile products. My directions for applying the Chamomile Night Cream says to "avoid nose and chin"...Im curious as to why...also do you mean the ENTIRE nose including the bridge and the ENTIRE chin meaning beginning right under my lips?...Read Response

If you are dry all over, you can apply the Chamomile Night Cream cream everywhere avoiding the eye area. However, if someone happens to have a bit of any oilier T-zone, we would recommend avoiding the nose and chin area to avoid excess shine. Basically, you can apply the Chamomile Night Cream on the drier areas of your face before bedtime.

I am 51 years old and have acne (clogged pores, oily, and sometimes dry, and flaky skin) and rosacea. I am so frustrated -- how do I treat my skin with your products? I have clogged pores, and I am getting white bumps under my skin that do not come up. I have had rosacea for about 20 years now, and since I went into menopause it has gotten worse. How do I treat the clogged pores on my nose, cheeks, forehead and chin without making my rosacea worse? I do get pustules from the rosacea occasionally, but I am noticing more and more broken capillaries showing especially when I use milder acne medications. What do you recommend? Thanks....Read Response

Based on the information that you provided regarding your skin type (combination/sensitive skin with acne/rosacea) it is necessary to use a very mild regimen to gently cleanse your skin without aggravating the rosacea. I would suggest using the Cream Soap twice daily to cleanse and soothe delicate skin. Follow with the alcohol free Seaweed Cleansing Lotion toner. This non-drying toner cleans and disinfects dry and sensitive skin to prevent blackheads. Mild Witch Hazel formula removes pore clogging debris while Aloe Extract soothes sensitive areas. Use the oil-free Aloe Moisturizer (SPF-15) daily to soften dry skin without clogging pores. Prevent pores from clogging by using the Flower & Tonic Mask 1-2 times a week on the t-zone. This is a combination purifying and calming mask for sensitive, congested skin types. Use the Calma Mask on alternating days to instantly calm redness. The Kaolin based formula absorbs oil from pores while soothing botanical Balsam Peru ingredient soothes minor redness and irritation. To spot treat surfaced whiteheads, use the Drying Lotion to help dry them up overnight. The most effective spot treatment for deep bumps is the Sulfur based Buffering Lotion. It is a light, liquid antiseptic solution to soothe and heal cystic blemishes.

If you have been diagnosed with Rosacea, it is important to keep your regimen extremely simple since the skin can be very delicate. When selecting a skin care regimen, it is important to choose mild products to help visibly reduce redness, even out skin tone, and smooth overall skin texture. Consistent use will offer optimal skin care results. Our priority is to help you achieve and maintain healthy, radiant skin. We would recommend using the Cream Soap suggested for mild cleansing of delicate skin. Follow with the Chamomile Cleansing Lotion to instantly soothe dry, sensitive skin. Chamomile Extract is a natural anti-inflammatory ingredient that helps to calm skin immediately. The Control Cream is enriched with Balsam Peru, a tree bark extract that soothes and reduces redness and irritation on the skin. This protective cream may be used morning and night to effectively moisturize and to calm sensitive skin. Enriched with skin-soothing botanicals, use the Calma Mask 2-3 times a week for 15 minutes to alleviate irritation and redness. In areas of extreme inflammation, apply a thin layer of the Control Cream underneath the mask.

A friend of mine turned me on to your site. I was interested in your rosacea line and I was wondering if I could try a few samples. I have rosacea slightly in my cheeks which people always comment what nice color I have, but I hate it. If I’m too hot at work my face feels like it’s on fire. Thank you for any help you can offer. ...Read Response

Having rosacea it is very important that you choose products that calm and soothe dry, sensitive skin. Our Cream Soap is fragrance free and will thoroughly cleanse your skin without irritation. Our Chamomile Cleansing Lotion will help soothe and tone irritated sensitive skin. Applying our Control Cream day and/or night will help prevent moisture loss, hydrate and calm flaky, sensitive skin as well as diminish any redness. The Calma Mask use two to three times a week is very effective for instantly calming irritated skin upon application.

I would like to try your products, however I am confused on what to use. I have mature dry skin, but I also have the condition that you refer to as couperose. I thought it was rosacea, but after reading your description, I believe it is more couperose. What products are recommended for dry/mature/couperose skin? ...Read Response

Since you have dry, mature, couperose skin we have the perfect regimen to help soothe, hydrate and protect your sensitive skin while it also helps to strengthen weakened capillaries. The Keratoplast Cream Soap not only washes away light make-up, but it also calms irritated blotchy skin. Our Keratoplast Cleansing Lotion containing Aloe Extract, Pollen Extract, and Keratoplast used in conjunction with the Kera Moisturizer will strengthen weakened capillaries and provide your skin with needed protein. To hydrate and refine apply the Chamomile Eye Cream which will help to minimize the appearance of fine lines. The Azulene Calming Mask moisturizes, minimizes redness, and is great for soothing irritation. Finally apply our Vitacel Moist Cream at night to relieve any dryness, restore moisture and help to strengthen weakened capillaries.
