About 3 years ago (after decades of lovely skin), I suddenly had zillions of tiny acne all over my chin, cheeks & forehead, with zero idea of what suddenly caused this. The local Dematologist just glanced at me and said "oh its just Rosacea" and proceeded to tell me I would have it the rest of my life and it was probably hereditary. I have NO ONE I am aware of in my family who had this, and she prescribed an expensive tube of Soolantra. Which did NOTHING. I then actually started using old Mary Kay Acne treatment (which is 2% salicylic acid) and this helped tame its anger down a bit, but still I had it all over the place.
Finally I saw a video of Dr. Pimple Popper who mentioned rosacea and the connection to demodex. I knew about demodex only in conjunction with animals (I live on a farm), but thought this made way more sense. So I searched and searched and found people raving about this product. They are pricy but THEY WORK. I bought the mask, the face cream and the wash. I used the mask for a half hour before bed 3-4 nights the first week and the cream right after. The results were stunning. After 1 week I was almost normal and after 2 weeks I don't have to use foundation to cover anything. My skin is back to normal! I now just use these products maybe once a week or two for maintenance.
As some people have noted, the price may seem steep but you truly only use a TINY bit. I just pat my finger on the top of the product and its plenty. These little jars will last me at least a year. The wash may not last as long because it flows out in larger amounts (note: it does not foam like a soap - its almost like a creamy liquid that you just put on a wet face, rub and rinse.)
I'd give this 1,000 stars if I could. Can't recommend it highly enough!
