This sounds like a good product. I get red from my acne medicine. Plus my skin is very sensitive according to the Skin Type Solutions questionnaire. I really need anti-inflammatory ingredients.

Awesome review! Do you think this could also be used for 1.) Tough cases of acne, or 2.) mild face sun burns? Also, should this only be used a few times a week or could you make this part of a daily skin routine? I can not wait to try it!

Great info. I too have been a little product intense lately and caused what I can only label as a “home chemical peel” from Retinol, antioxidents, and microdermabrasion. Ouch! I was able to repair my skin by just leaving it alone for a week. Next time I’ll try some of these products!

ooh- this could have helped me a few weeks back- I’ll def. try this next time.

I went through a bout of crazy skin myself a few week back- I was trying way too many things on my face !!!I had little bumps and what appeared almost like hives on my face that seem to subside a little with benadryl and OTC hydrocortizone cream. Finally, I remembered that when I was younger and had major skin irritation problems, my derm recommend Avene’s thermal water as topical soothing agent. I ran out and bought a huge bottle. I moistened cotton pads with the thermal water and let the soaked pads sit on irritated areas for 30 min, 3 times a day. Sure enough, by my 4th treatment, my skin was almost back to normal. I highly recommend this product for irritated skin.

Thanks for the info! My skin is sensitive and gets really irritated when I’m having fun in the sun

I’ve been updating my entire skin care routine lately and have noticed the skin on my neck, especially, becoming more sensitive. Thanks for the reminder to go easy on the experimenting! It’s easy to forget that your skin has limits.

the ingredients actually sound mediocre at best, definitely can be found in products that run a lower price tag. However, the peppermint/spearmint part threw me off. I’ve never heard of it as being anti-inflammatory in the dermatological sense. According to the herbal medicine article spearmint is found to be absolutely useless (unless you like spearmint flavored tea) and peppermint has only shown to produce anti-inflammatory effects in the localized region of the digestive/intestinal tracts, with no reference to effects of topical application. For a $78 system, they must have pretty great marketing schematics.
