combination PIHAcneRosacea+ 2
Amazing product! Helped me a lot with my post-acne scars

This product has helped me a lot to make my scars less appearing, though I don't know for how long you have to apply it, I've seen results after 2 weeks and I am using it for the last 2 months. The texture is a little bit thick, which makes it a little bit harder to spread equally on your face, but after asking my dermatologist, he recommended to mix it with some moisturizer, he told me that Topicrem AC Hydra is perfect since the formula is minimalist and there is no potential risk of 2 ingredients from these 2 products that may react badly together, this moisturizer is also designed for people with irritated and dried skin after acne treatments (Isotretinoin in my case) so I recommend you to give it a try like this! AMAZING product overall but it kinda has a white cast (especially if you apply it alone) I think that it is due to the fact that it has a mineral UV filter (zinc ) but that didn't bother me since I only apply it at night. I would also recommend trying my application method (recommended by dermatologist): apply it for 15 to 30 minutes before cleansing, and after cleansing and putting on any other product (because if you want to layer you should layer from the thinnest to the thickest product) (P.S I use the Ducray Keracnyl PP Anti-Imperfection cream as a complimentary product).

My new HG

I thought the Tolerance emulsion was great but Cicalfate was even better. It seemed to be healing my rolling scars too. They don't look as bad as they were before. I put this on after washing with SA cleanser and this combi did wonders with for my erythema. I still have red acne scars but they're less noticeable, significant improvement only after a week of using this nightly. I hope they don't change the formula.

Good for dry skin.

As time passes, it does feel a little bit oily as it claimed to restore the skin's moisture barrier. I apply this product every time my skin is having a tough time during hot days. It is very helpful during my eczema flare-up. Overall, if your skin is dry or hyper dry and sensitive, you might include this product for a try.

A good all rounder, despite not being FA safe

I initially bought this to deal with a bout of perioral dermatitis (it did a good job), and now use it fairly regularly, despite having some FA suspicions. Skin is calmed, acne scars seem diminished, and it helps even out the tone of my scarred chin,
I tend to spray a toner (Lush 'Breath of Fresh Air') and then apply this while my skin is still damp with it - helps it absorb, and makes it more spreadable.

For healing dry spots on the skin

I'm using it mostly on my dry skin spots/scabs after acne or some small injuries and it's working really good - it accelerates the healing process. It leaves my skin little oily, so I use it mostly as a night cream after cleansing. It hydrates the skin well.
