Guest guest Posted February 19, 2002 Report Share Posted February 19, 2002 Greetings, Anyone been using a topical Vitamin K product with satisfactory results? If in fact Phytonadione (vitamin K2 source in skin creams) has a positive effect on spider veins and redness, I'd like to add it to my regimen. Problem is, like several on the list have noted, all the formulations I've checked have an ingredient list that reads like the @#$%&* periodic table; even those supposedly formulated for rosacea. It's extremely frustrating to me that these outfits don't seem to understand that, for rosacea sufferers, less is often more; keep it simple! If it's the 5% vitamin k that has the active effect, SPARE ME THE 47 HERBS AND SPICES!!! Phew!, thanks for letting me vent. Anyway, I'm going to give this feedback to any " rosacea products' maker that doesn't seem to get it and encourage others to do the same. Not surprisingly, we all tend to react somewhat uniquely to given ingredients, so the shorter the list of those in the product, the easier to identify the irritants. It would be a shame not to enjoy the benefits of an effective treatment because all the " experts " insist on mixing it in a " witches brew " of botanicals, oils, and/or chemicals. OK, I'm done; please do let me know of your experiences with the K products, though. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
