Guest guest Posted February 22, 2002 Report Share Posted February 22, 2002 Hi: My husband bought gold bond (green) and tried a small amount as a test on the back of his hand. The skin on the test site broke out in blister like red bumps. Needless to say.... we returned the product. Has anyone had a look at the inactive ingredients?

Guest guest Posted April 23, 2002 Report Share Posted April 23, 2002 I tried the Gold Bond too, but only used it for four days. When I applied it just to my lower cheeks (where its dry but doesnt flush much) I didn't see a whole lot of change. I didn't see any increase in flushing/swelling like I have with every other moisturizer I've tried. When I applied it to the whole left side of my face, I did see a bit more flushing, but no extra swelling or anything. Overall I was impressed, it was much better than most moisturizers I've ever used, but I didn't really see any improvement, and when I put it on my entire cheek, I did flush a little easier. Should I have discontinued using it like I did, or does it sometimes take several weeks to see good results with it?

This is a very helpful comparison. I would have assumed that menthol might be irritating to inflammed skin, but I might be completely off here. All my chapsticks are mint or menthol flavour, and when my lips are really chapped in witner, the menthol burns a teeny weeny bit. I have never seen Gold Bond in white bottles, I did look at the ingredients of the green bottle just last week, incidentally, but did not buy it (yet). I would assume that the white Gold Bond, with its absence of fragrance, parabens and propylene glycol, etc. would be the safest way to go and menthol could easily be added if desired.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2002 Report Share Posted April 25, 2002 Hi. I've been using the Gold Bond lotion for sensitive skin (in the white bottle) for over a month now and am very pleased with the results. I have mild rosacea with very large pores, oily skin and flakes on one cheek. My pores seem smaller, my complexion is much smoother and less greasy and the flakes have decreased. I use it in the morning and before I go to bed. I also wash with Phisoderm at night and Cetaphil cleansing bar in the morning. The only makeup I use is Revlon's New Complexion Corrective Powder compact in the " even out " color, which has a yellowish tint to it.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2002 Report Share Posted April 25, 2002 Hi. I've been using the Gold Bond lotion for sensitive skin (in the white bottle) for over a month now and am very pleased with the results. I have mild rosacea with very large pores, oily skin and flakes on one cheek. My pores seem smaller, my complexion is much smoother and less greasy and the flakes have decreased. I use it in the morning and before I go to bed. I also wash with Phisoderm at night and Cetaphil cleansing bar in the morning. The only makeup I use is Revlon's New Complexion Corrective Powder compact in the " even out " color, which has a yellowish tint to it.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2002 Report Share Posted April 28, 2002 Yes you can get it at Walmart or online at www.drugstore.com I use the Green bottle with the red cap. One word of advice... use it by itself, don't mix it with other topicals. > >To: rosacea-support >Subject: Gold Bond >Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2002 02:25:23 -0000 > >I've heard so much about Gold Bond that I'd at least like to give it >a try.
