Hello! I need some advice, I have the beginning stages of Rosacea (Red nose & Broken Caps) and just purchased the IS Clinical Rosacea kit which is the cleanser, ProHeal Serum, Hydra cool Serum and sunscreen, and have been using all four for almost a week. Problem is my skin is SO DRY now!! Any advise would be greatly appreciated!!  I want to continue to use them but the dryness is so uncomfortable.
Thanks,
Heather |

| I don't know about the hydracool or the proheal, but the cleanser to me is very harsh and drying. I wonder if you tried a more gentle cleanser if that would help your dryness? |

| That makes sense, after I wash my face with the cleanser my face feels extremely tight and dry.....I just don't understand why they would put that type of cleanser in a rosacea kit? |

Cleanser for sure! I have used all of them and had to give the cleanser to my 22 year old son as it was way too drying for my sensitive skin. I still use the Proheal and Hydracool every morning and I also use finacea for rosacea at night. It does wonders.
I do also use a bit of lotion over the hydracool in the winter as my skin is drier than normal this time of year. |

| I don't really have any specific suggestions for a cleanser, Heather. I would maybe do a google search for cleansers that are appropriate for rosacea skin! Good luck! |

Annie, has your skin acclimated now to the "new" Proheal now? I want to get the Polyvitamin Serum again but am unsure with the recent formula changes. TIA! |
