cream to repair skin's barrier function

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

i was surfing the web and came upon a site called handbag.com, which

is a beauty site that has a question/answer page with a

british " beauty expert " , Gustafson. i encourage all to peruse

the site..the archives have a lot of questions from people who sound

like they have rosacea. of course most of the responses are pretty

basic but he has some good cosmetic recommendations to cover redness,

etc. i found this one to be particularly interesting, especially for

those with dry flaky skin.

to summarize, one woman asked for help with her excessively flaky

skin and in part of his response he says:

" A while ago an American cosmeceutical company brought out a product

made for people with eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis… all three are

conditions with excessively dry skin. It was the first ever product

that had the exact lipid and ceramides ration that skin has and it

allowed the skin to repair its barrier function so it would behave as

normal skin again " the cream is called Osmotics Extreme. has anyone

heard of this?

hmm, doesn't this sound like it might be helpful for rosaceans?
