Game changer for redness

A lovely rich cream I use as a night cream. Hydrates, absorbs easily over a serum and reduces the redness / rosacea as I sleep. Game changer for dry, sensitive, red skin.

Stay away if you are prone to FA!

This moisturizer is like a buffet for malassezia yeast. I’ve used it for months because my topical acne prescriptions (clindamycin/benzoyl peroxide/tret) were really irritating and this did seem to help a little bit with the burning. However, over time I started to get fungal acne after an antibiotic course and this made it so much worse! I didn’t even realize it so I kept using it and my skin would just not improve. My first hint should’ve been the fact that this moisturizer literally just sits on your skin. It is incredibly too heavy and I would have to dilute it with a toner. Anyways, I out this on sezia.com and found out it has so many fungal acne triggering/feeding ingredients. As soon as I stopped using it my skin started to improve again. Such a shame because it is very expensive and now I have nothing to do with the rest of my bottle.
