Guest guest Posted September 12, 1999 Report Share Posted September 12, 1999 Hi all. Alot of you out there love Zia cleanser. I'm wondering if I am alone in that I don't like it. I've tried it so many times, but it doesn't get makeup off - even if I wash several times. Even if I don't have makeup on and wash my face is still doesn't feel clean, like there is a film on my skin. I'm thinking I may have a mild case of seb. derm., my face is dandruffy. When I wash my face I have to rub it to get off the excess dead skin...it looks like I used a pencil eraser. I've had to accept washing my face like this, because it keeps me from breaking out. Weeks after trying Zia and Jojoba I now have about four huge acne cysts. I used to get maybe one occasionally, but I haven't broken out like this since high school (I'm now 29)! I have given up on the Zia, but do you guys think it could be the Jojoba also? What about EPO? Any suggestions on a cleanser besides nizoral (it's too strong)? I'm presently using alpha hydrox facial cleanser... Thanks - Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a bit expensive but I failed to use zia successfully or jojoba. I also use EPO instead of jojoba and my skin has been much calmer. AFE can be bought at www.cosmetics.com Glenys > >------------------------------------------------------------------------ > >eGroups.com home: /group/rosacea-support > - Simplifying group communications > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
