Guest guest Posted July 18, 2002 Report Share Posted July 18, 2002 Does using creams that exfoliate skin as opposed to just moisturizing the skin make a difference? I wonder when reading thru moisturizers whether I need the exfoliate stuff. Can someone who knows share the answers with the rest of us! Thanks....

I exfoliate them with a cotton pad, and put Rozex (your Metrogel) on them to moisturise it a bit: the flakes come back the day after. The exfoliation just gives way to red skin underneath, but it means that I can put sun block on without it collecting all the flakes. Sorry I don't have any solutions, just problems and empathy:-(. D > > 6. anyone else out there having this scaling problem. Do I really have to choose between the flakes and the pimples. I don't want to choose. -- Please read the list highlights before posting to the whole group (http://rosacea.ii.net/toc.html).
