I was wondering if anyone else has an opinion?   I know in trying to treat my Rosacea, flushing and redness has taken much time, money and effort with treatments and I told you above that thanks to the experts at The Pulse Light Clinic that I had been 'enlightened' to the importance of diet and lifestyle.
 
What I wanted to share with anyone on here the importance of what you use on your skin, maintenance is so important!!!   You don't want to reverse all the good done by the great folk at the clinic...
 
Here's what I mean, I have recently done an entire product overhall, relating to everything I use on my skin that include cleansers to bubble bath etc.
 
As a guy I used to throw everything at it, always thinking MORE is good and more ingredients are good, I fell for all the 'high-street brands' hype and promises.
 
Well this is what I have learnt, with Rosacea probably LESS IS MORE.
 
Don't believe what all the packaging says, don't believe the boxes that say 'anti-redness' cream.   Do your own research and READ the ingredient list.   I have been shocked at what goes into these branded products, some of them are totally 'overloaded' with ingredients.
 
I now avoid all the AHA's, retinols, palmitates, caffeine, glycolsglycols and diglycols (such as propylene glycol), PEG's, PPGs, urea, D.E.A, T.E.A, PABA and other synthetic sunscreens, aliphatic alcohols/hydrocarbons, phthalates, fumarates, amines, alkanolamines, synthetic AHAs/BHAs, polyacrylamide, metacrylate, elastomer, poloxamer, styrene, vinyl, polyquaternium, synthetic chelating agents, nylon, nitriles, nitrates, nitrosamine releasers, bromates, fluor, aluminum and alumina etc...
 
It just aint worth it on my skin, the long-term effects can't be good for Rosacea or my skin health and healing.
 
My new mantra is "let the good work be done by those at The Pulse Light Clinic and the good lifestyle decisions I make and let me give my skin the environment in which to repair itself naturally."
 
Good-luck all, I would love to hear any comments or thoughts you may have??
