I had a really bad case of perioral dermatitis around my mouth and nose. I was using a cortisone cream as prescribed by my doctor to clear this up , but after 8 months of continued use of this I read that the cortisone only masks the problem and perpetuates it.
After doing some research I came across a number of people who used Weleda Calendula Baby cream. I was skeptical, (but desperate) as it's for nappy rash and I thought this would be much to heavy for the delicate skin on my face. After quitting the cortisones, my skin just went berserk. It was inflamed, intolerable, red and felt like it was burning!! It had endless little rashy bumps, and was dry and flaking as well.
Weleda Calendula cream really helped to soothe and heal it whilst going though this horrible period. It is thick, but I found after massaging it, it sank in. It did soothe, and also seemed to dried out any of the little bumps that wanted to flare up again. I will definitely repurchase this product! |
