Dr. Linda Sy has been a long time friend of the Rosacea Support Group. A respected dermatologist, she answered questions for rosacea sufferers for several years. Also, through her own company Linda Sy Skincare, developed 2 products specifically for rosacea sufferers - a mild cleanser and a well tolerated zinc oxide dimethicone sunscreen.
Lets look at her Mild Oatmeal Facial Cleanser. Motivated by some support group members who were making their own cleansing masks with oatmeal and water, Dr. Sy wondered if oatmeal could form the basis for a gentle cleanser. The idea of using colloidal oatmeal was that it could help sop up flakes associated with seborrheic dermatitis and excess sebum and oil buildup on the surface of the skin. Here are some comments from rosacea sufferers who use this cleanser ;
“For a cleanser, I would suggest Linda Sy Oatmeal Cleanser. It’s mild but takes the make-up off well.”"…but Linda Sy’s Mild Oatmeal Cleanser works a treat with no rubbing or irritation.”
“I have been using this cleanser for more than two weeks now and have only very good things to say about it. It is by far the least irritating cleanser I have used and the best part is that it cleans away the dry and dead skin cells that have accumulated. I do not get red at all when I apply it and my skin feels terrific afterwards.”
“I love Dr. Sy’s oatmeal cleanser. I don’t have any of the bumps or pimples but my skin is very sensitive of course and this cleans well without irritating and helps with the flakiness which I have even though my skin is not dry.”
