elidel ingredients...aaack!

[Guest guest]

aaack i just picked up my elidel and look at the ingredients:

" each tube also contains benzyl alcohol,cetyl alcohol, CITRIC ACID

(ouchouchouch-maybe thats why the brochure warns that 25% of the

people will feel burning upon application), mono-and di- glycerides,

oleyl alcohol, propylene glycol, sodium cetostearyl sulphate, sodium

hydroxide, stearyl alcohol, triglycerides, and water.

aghhhh why must every topical contain billions of irritants that

probably end up counter-effecting the " good " active ingredient? i

think more rosaceans should study chemistry so we can formulate our

own products with nice, soothing gentle ingredients.
