my mom, who has rosacia (sp?) really bad, has been using the skinlogics platinum. So far, no outbreaks! Most products make it flare really bad and her face looks red and swollen for days!
She started just using the cleanser for a few days, then added the toner for a few days and now the moisturizer. She hasn't tried the scrub yet. My gut is that she should just skip that product, because if anything is going to irritate it, it would be the scrub. Any opinions or advice?

You should call BC and talk to them. One of the lines is good to use for Rosacea - I remember hearing that in BU but I cannot remember which. I have notes somewhere I will try to look for you tomorrow.

I have rosacea and i use the entire line of maintance products for the 30s and using everything everyday has helped clear it up completely. If i skip a few days it does come back. I love the scrub but was told to stay away from microderm. I was also told i could use the chemical peel with rosacea but i haven't tried it yet.
hope that helps some.

Nikki, that's awesome to hear! I've heard that people with rosacea should avoid all products with exfoliating ingredients which includes our scrub. But I also trust Christi as well http://www.wahm.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif. Maybe she can test it out for a bit and see how she reacts to it.

My mom has this as well and she uses the sensitive line. She is also allergic to pollen, dust, and about everything else that is in the great outdoors! Her skin is not as red and since she added the cell block C pm we have all been able to see a big change!
