Mario Badescu Azulene Calming Mask, 2 oz.

Amazing product. Like everything by Mario Badescu.

I have redness,after one time used this mask,is so calming my face and redness reduces. Thank you.

Calms my skin everytime. Can occasionally feel mentholly which scared me but to my surprise it def calms it down and takes a lot of the redness away.

Since most skin care products seem to be different for each person, I’ll write my experience based on my type of skin. So this product made my skin feel very soft after I used it. I immediately noticed that a lot of the redness had gone. It definitely calmed my skin, or at least did something to make it less red. So I’m fair skinned, but can still tan pretty easily. Can burn without sunscreen very easily as well though. I have sensitive skin, tends to be dry. I have a LOT of redness. It’s not really rosacea (although I have a tiny bit of that with age and sun exposure), but my face just tends to be red, always has been. I’m convinced this product calms the skin and that that is what causes some skin redness (not necessarily rosacea).

So I just had my very first rosacea flare up. Went to the derm and have been using their prescriptions religiously which are slowly but surely helping. I was nervous to use anything else on my face as it is so itchy and sensitive I was worried to cause more damage. I caved and used this mask about a week and a half into my new routine. I used a very thin layer and it did burn a little upon application so I panicked but I did wait it out and was very surprised at the redness relief. When I took it off my skin felt like it had some residue but honestly I think that was helpful for soothing my skin. I’m very happy I was able to find something to use during the flare ups. I will definitely make sure I have this on hand at all times for future flare ups.

Product seems to work well. I have acne prone skin. However the scent makes my eyes burn and water. I’m not even putting it near my eyes! Hopefully for future formulas that can be toned down.
