  1. The evidence of high sugar consumption and obesity is overwhelming. There is also ample anecdotal evidence that sugar is a rosacea trigger. In an article published by Salon, it exposes the sugar beverage industry's power to keep sugar drinks in the diet of Americans:

  3. How To Use & Apply Natural Essential Oils: The Benefits of Jojoba For Face, Skin & Hair Part 2

    Jojoba oil is especially well suited for treating skin problems, likely because of its similarity to the sebum that occurs naturally in our own skin. Jojoba oil aids in the healing chapped skin and may help lessen the appearance of skin lesions such as stretch marks. Jojoba oil used by itself is a conditioner for the skin or hair. It removes hair product residue and rehydrates the hair .It is a great skin conditioner for people of all ages. It works well as a cleanser because it gently unclogs pores and cleans away dirt.

    Soolantra Sales
    Galderma has something that works for rosacea. Annual market sales for the 12 months ending May 2017 was $87 million. [1]

    "In March 2017, Perrigo submitted an abbreviated new drug application, or ANDA, with a Paragraph IV certification for ivermectin cream, 1% to the FDA. In January 2018, this ANDA was tentatively approved by the FDA. Final approval from the FDA is subject to a 30-month stay under the Hatch-Waxman amendments to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Ivermectin cream, 1% is the active molecule in Soolantra, which is currently marketed in the United States by Galderma Laboratories LP. For the 12 months ended November 30, 2017, Soolantra achieved sales of  $113 million according to IQVIA." [2]

    Cision, on Jan 30, 2018, states, "Annual market sales for the last 12 months were approximately $120 million, according to IMS Health."

    Anecdotal Reports
    There have been very few reports that Soolantra doesn't work, and way more reports that it works, but you may want to read what the side effects are reported to be.  So this indicates a treatment for rosacea worth seriously considering to see if Soolantra works for your rosacea. It appears from the reports that it works for a significant number of rosaceans. One important note is that BEFORE your rosacea is controlled using Soolantra, there is ample evidence that it gets WORSE before it GETS BETTER and may take a couple of months of use to determine this! This 'worse before it gets better' syndrome may be the result of the killing of the mites. 

    If you read the King of Soolantra threads then you will discover that there are reports that the Soolantra kills the mites and their dead bodies (with reports that contain a number of bacteria) cause a worsening of the rosacea symptoms before the rosacea gets better. Usually it takes two or more months before the demodectic rosacea is controlled by Soolantra. Your experience may be different since there are some who report that they do not get worse before it gets better and report success using Soolantra. The only way is to try it and find out yourself. You may be a candidate for Soolantra. Galderma would be pleased if you are a successful candidate. If you are please reply to this thread with your results. 

    We have started a list of anecdotal reports in the fourth post of this thread (keep scrolling). You can add your report by finding the REPLY TO THIS TOPIC button and posting. 

    Reports
    "Topical ivermectin 1% cream acts by a dual, anti-inflammatory and anti-parasitic mode of action against rosacea by killing Demodex spp. in vivo, in addition to significantly improving clinical signs and symptoms in the skin." [3]

    Galderma received European approval for releasing Soolantra in 28 European Union countries in March 2015. Source

    Cetaphil Base
    Galderma states the following about the 'basis for the vehicle':

    "Soolantra Cream combats inflammatory lesions of rosacea with a formulation designed for tolerability, utilizing Cetaphil® Moisturizing Cream as the basis for the vehicle." 

    There's no doubt that the actual base cream in Soolantra is not Cetaphil Cream, but on the other hand, it's roughly equivalent to the extent that they use a polymer-plus-emulsion cream. The evidence for this is in the footnote. [4]

  5. We have recently upgraded our forum to version 4 which has a cool new look and features that are user friendly. Could any of the members like to give some reasons why no one is posting in our forum?  It appears that Rosaceans are moving on to social media like Facebook, Reddit, Twitter or some other media to post and simply don't like the forum style posting anymore. 

    What do members need from the RRDi to post comments, questions or start a discussion in our member forum?  

    The other huge issue is how volunteering has diminished. Read this post
