I'm back to parabens.  

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I've tried EVERYTHING for my dry face and rosacea. And I mean everything.

It is with great reluctance that I am back to using parabens.

Suave Sensitive is the only thing that keeps the flakiness down for me.

I think the parabens made my rosacea worse. Now that I have stopped using all of them, it seems to be getting better by the day. I did have to come up with my own mixture for my face. It is 2 parts unrefined shea butter, 1 part coconut oil and a few drops of EO of my choice. I put the sb and co in the microwave and warm them only to the point that I can hand mix them.

I slather it on my face each night and have NO flakes anymore.

Have you tried Evan Healy Skincare? I have rosacea too and while I still have some redness, my irritation and flakiness are gone.
Paraben-free, all natural and amazing. Evan Healy (the founder) has rosacea herself, so she developed her skincare line with the most sensitive skin in mind.

I use an herbal salve that I make myself. The base is coconut oil and/or olive oil. Works wonders on my rosacea! As a PP said, the mainstream products all just made it worse.

PM me if you'd like the recipe for the salve.
