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.

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 was wondering if you can help me with picking out any products for my eczema condition. My eczema developed after I turned 30 and it is around my elbows. It is extremely dry and flaky. When I am sleeping, I do not realize that I am scratching it so hard that often times I find them bleeding the next morning. I started to use a sugar scrub in the shower and stopped putting lotion and hydrocortizone on it after the shower. I do notice that it is better but now it is white and flaky looking. Are there any products that I can use whether in the shower, after shower and/or at moments when it is irritating? A scrub, lotion, type of ointment? Your help will be greatly appreciated....Read Response

Eczema is a skin condition involving superficial inflammation of the skin primarily affecting the epidermis that causes dryness, itching and red rashes which are often coupled with a scaly surface. The severity of the condition may vary for each individual. Eczema is a skin condition that must be diagnosed by a dermatologist. If you are experiencing extremely dry, flaky skin, using emollients will protect the skin from water loss which helps to prevent dryness. By providing a barrier, the skin is less dry, itchy and flaky. I would recommend the following soothing products to help offer intense moisture and calming relief. Start by using the Seaweed Bubble Bath And Shower Gel in the shower to cleanse and soften skin. This seaweed based gel contains sesame oil to nourish and moisturize the skin. After showering, apply the Super Rich Olive Body Lotion to seal in moisture, leaving skin soft and silky. Every morning, apply the Control Cream on any dry, rough, flaky areas such as your elbows. This Salicylic Acid based formulation may be used before bedtime as an intense treatment to alleviate discomfort.
