Hi Group,
A new salicylic acid cleanser just came out by Clearasil. As many
of you know my face cannot tolerate any form or concentration of
salicylic acid. It reacts within 7 to 10 days…..always. But, I
like to be a guinea pig. I stumbled across this cleanser when it
was released and have been using it for 41 days straight (one time
at night). I am simply speechless. It is fantastic on my skin. It
is also a great moisturizer. and pore cleanser. In addition, my
face has become non-reactive to the harsh winter elements and indoor
heating ever since I started using the cleanser.
If you read the ingredient list below most of the ingredients look
like rosacea death bullets. I did not expect anything but
irritation. But it has been wonderful surprise and its
inexpensive.
I believe that these companies now have the technology to put
salicylic acid in a non-irritating, soothing base. I am only one
person and I have not received any other reports yet, but based on
my strong reactions to salicylic acid in the past, I believe that
some rosacea sufferers that have acne, clogged pores, or
papulopustular rosacea may want to put this on their list to try.
If you are Subtype I with just facial redness I would probably still
stay away from anything with salicylic acid. This is just an
anecdotal report. I hope some find relief. Below is a brief
description of the product and its ingredients.
Regards,
Geoffrey
