Review: GoodGood

I love the way this tub is setup so you don't waste the product. I like the way this stuff feels however, I am unsure about how well it does getting rid of redness. I kinda feel like though that with redness reducers if my red isn't gone I'm kinda like meh... haha I think it might be something that takes a little while of consistent usage and I don't like using creams all the time. I use it at night after I put the Ain't Misbhavin on because that can make your face feel a bit dry and this helps a ton with that and makes your face feel soft.
I have horrible skin issues and am stressed to oblivion at school which always makes my skin way worse than what it normally is. I've used this product about two weeks so far and I have to say, my skins not perfect but its getting there!! Its the closest to perfect it has been since I was about 14 (I'm 22.) I have a lot of cystic acne problems and had read somewhere this was good for hormonal and cystic breakouts. (I'm not saying that is true since I am not a scientist but my face has improved so I wouldn't be surprised if the claim is legit.) Within a week my face improved a lot and for me thats just an incredible thing.
Just a side note I used a trio of products not this alone! I think that is important to say. I used the Ain't Misbhavin face wash and gel stuff too.
Review: Huge improvement

I doubted it was even possible to banish the redness, but I was just desperate enough to spend the $85. For a gal who cringes at $35 for Clinique moisturizer, that's a lot of dough. But this was by far the best money I ever spent on my skin! I have self-diagnosed mild rosacea and didn't want the usual treatment of oral antibiotics (which have their own set of problems for me). With just a few dabs of this product twice daily on my nose, cheeks and chin, I'm virtually redness-free, and my occasional blemishes are reduced by about half.
CC&C isn't miraculous. On infrequent occasions, I remain blotchy despite using it. This is usually when I've been under a lot of stress or have been sick. Extrapolating from that experience, I believe the greater the severity of the rosacea, the more limited CC&C's results will be.
CC&C doubles as a regular moisturizer, so - unless you have extremely dry skin - there's no need to use another moisturizer over it. I wear it at night, and beneath makeup during the day, applying it only in my redness-prone areas. I save a few bucks by using my less expensive moisturizers on the rest of my face and neck. At this rate, one $85 jar lasts me about 5 months. Not too bad, when I think of it as $17 per month.
Review: More than I expected

I have been looking for a face product that would address my skin issues: rosacea, acne and de-hydration. I tried this cream after reading the reviews and I am impressed with the results. I have little, to none, redness now (usually noticeable on my cheeks/nose and chin). I did not want to have to use prescribed metro-cream for the rest of my life. Although I really like the results I am seeing with Calm, Cool and Corrected - the down side is the price....I might not always be able to afford this cream and am afraid that I might have to experiment with cheaper brands. I am using this twice a day, but only as a spot treamtment in the morning and then I layer my SPF face cream over it....this makes the cream last about 7 weeks rather than 4 weeks (which is about how long it lasts when you use twice a day on entire face and neck). I still have some unwanted acne, but that is likely partially do my work conditions. I do wish this product was more affordable....in this economy I have to struggle to pay the bills -versus- treating my unwanted (and unsightly, in my own opinion)skin conditions to make myself feel better. I just want to have clear, healthy looking skin...and for now I will pay what I have to in order to achieve that goal. Review: Multi-Purpose

This extremely soothing cream helps any irritation caused by weather, swimming, dryness from sun exposure, or hormones. I use this during the times when hormonal breakouts would occur, and I don't have any breakouts. This makes my skin soft, supple, and clear, and it feels cool and comforting. I especially like this for soothing "spider veins" around my nose. I have allergies occasionally, and sneezing and blowing my nose makes those veins pop out. This cream soothes the redness and/or swelling in those areas, so the veins don't show as much. This cream also stops my nose from appearing red when those allergies manifest. This is an anti-aging, anti-breakout, healing product that's very concentrated, and very, very high quality. Review: Pretty Good

I am 30 years old and have acne as well as rosacea. I have tried everything over the counter for both problems, and most recently the very expensive laser surgery. That laser surgery (Isolaz) did NOT work. Save your money. It cost me $700 for three treatments and my acne and rosacea were both worse. I tried this product, even though it is very expensive. I have been using it for 2 1/2 months, and my acne has improved greatly. My rosacea is lighter and there are less "bumps" in my rosacea. My skin is not perfect by any means, but it is definitely 70% better than what is has been for the previous 10 years.
Also, it is a great moisturizer. This is good, because I used to use Clinique's Moisture Surge which is like $40 itself. So, it sort of kills two birds with one stone. I like it!
