I've tried some Roc serum and cream treatments, and am currently using the Garnier cream to reduce appearance of sun damage. My face is still so...pink. Has anyone tried anything with retinol in it? Or does Burt's Bees have anything that would help? I need guidance from other Pink Ladies out there! Thanks.
I can't think of the name of it, but Kohl's sells a cream that's made for redness. It's in a green jar.
Have you been to a Dermotologist?I would highly recommend seeing one.I have redness thought the cause was due to pregnancy well yes & no I now have Roscea it is redness all the time now on 2 prescriptions for it.I use dove for sensitve skin when i'm not able to use my prescription face wash,also Avenno calming lotion.There are so many products out there & many to stay away from becasue they can casue further damage to the skin by stripping away the good alyers that protect our skin from damages.Apply a face suncreen daily before makeup is applied
My recomomendation would be to get rid of any products you are using that contain Chemicals. You can read about my sons experience on my blog at http://valerielint.blogspot.com/
I am not sure what the cause of your redness is; definitely see a dermatologist first. If it is Rosacea, I actually stumbled upon a product when I got a free sample of Aveda Green Science Lifting Serum. I noticed that it really reduced my redness and calmed my skin in general; I have mild Rosacea on my cheeks and nose. I had tried the prescription creams and gels for Rosacea, but didn't like the feel of them and this Aveda product actually works better for me than the prescriptions, and serves a dual purpose! (I can get it on ebay for much cheaper than the store also.)
I use Shaklee's Enfuselle and all the redness went away almost immediately. It has helped some people with Roscea, but not all.
Mary Kay just came out with a brand new foundation primer that helps with reducing the redness when you apply it under your foundation. Call your consultant. She'll be thrilled to help you out!
Something with "calming" in the name....I think Origins makes a calming mask.
I have rosacea which comes with lots of redness. I've found Aveeno's calming lotion to be wonderful. I would truly suggest going to your dermatologist before trying products with retinol. Whatever underlying issue is causing the redness would probably be further aggravated by retinol.
I second the dermatologist suggestion. I have spent $$$$$ on all kinds of over the counter stuff that does not really work, went to see a dermatologist for another reason, got a face wash and a cream for my face, and voila! even skin tone and I look, well, maybe a year younger... :)
