Great Results!
This product really made a difference. I have rosacea and have started to get blisters and inflamed patches on my face. I was getting to the point of going to a dermatologist about but thought I might try something more on my own first since docters really can't cure it anyhow. I found this during my online searching and decided to try it. In just a week, I have seen a remarkable improvement. For the first time in a long time, my skin feels smooth and healthy. I still get a little red after a hot shower, but I'm not red all the time anymore. This stuff works.

rosacea
I have used many diff moisturisers and this is the only moisturiser so far that has not burned my very sensitive skin.I have only been using it for 4 days so fingers crossed it heals my rosacea blemishes as well.

Fantastic Stuff!
If used regularly (in tiny doses) it keeps my forehead and under-eye area almost symptom free.
I also moisturise my lips with it and my ears!
Additionally, I put the stuff on any small cut or scratch and find that it heals quicker and cleaner.
Recently I got a cold sore and found that that it cleared much quicker with this stuff on, this is due to the antibacterial and antiviral properties of the Manuka honey.
One theory I've had is that IF rosacea is caused or aggravated by demodex mites, then this stuff should kill them.
I got mine on ebay for £10 ($20) delivered and a tub lasts me 6 months!!! try it!!!

Hope's is a miracle!
I've had rosacea for years and tried everything from dermatologists to "green gunk" to cover my itchy red splotches on my face. The very first time I used Hope's relief it gave me IMMEDIATE relief from the itchiness & redness. Within a week of daily use I no longer had red splotches on my face. I still need to use it every day - as long as I use it I have no rosacea. By the way, I'll be 50 soon, but my skin looks about 35!

Wonderful
My skin was permanently red and sore so decided to try this cream out of sheer desperation. Have an oily skin subject to breakouts and blackheads and as the cream feels very greasy when first applied I was worried it might make things worse. On application however the cream is rapdly absorbed and doesn't block my pores. I now use it every day and wouldn't be without it as it is so soothing and really calms the rosacea down as well as making my skin feel really soft.
Incidentally I also started applying it to my neck, which as I'm 60 had started looking "crepey". This also looks so much better now so for me this cream is brilliant.

Hope's relief now have a bar
Hope's Relief cream is wonderful - very soothing and calms the redness of my skin particularly on my cheeks and nose. Even after a shower I am no longer experiencing such svere redness. There is now a bar available too, which I use on my face as well as body and it is very inexpensive. I doubt it is in supermarkets, but it is available at Capital Chemist.

Hope Relief Creme in the UK
I've been using the Hope Relief Creme for my face for a while and I have to say it's great. The redness on my face is hardly visible and it soothes the itching as well although not completely. But it's the only thing that's helped. My brother has the same problem and has now been usin the creme for a year now. His problem was worse than mine and he's extremely happy with the result, the redness is gone! If you're in the UK espcecially in or around London try one of the Whole Foods Market stores (you may know them as Fresh and Wild) as they sell Hope Relief products.

Rosacea Subtypes
Subtype 1: Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea
characterized by flushing and persistent redness, and may also include visible blood vessels.
Subtype 2: Papulopustular rosacea
characterized by persistent redness with transient bumps and pimples.
Subtype 3: Phymatous rosacea
characterized by skin thickening, often resulting in an enlargement of the nose from excess tissue.
Subtype 4: Ocular rosacea
characterized by ocular manifestations such as dry eye, tearing and burning, swollen eyelids,
recurrent styes and potential vision loss from corneal damage.
Rosacea Stages
Pre-Rosacea
the first cardinal sign of rosacea: blood vessels dilate to more stimuli, open wider and stay open for longer periods of time compared to normal
persons. No visible damage can normally be seen.
Mild Rosacea
begins when the facial redness induced by flushing persists for an abnormal length of time - usually 1/2 an hour or more after a trigger. Those who
have frequent pre-rosacea flushing are highly susceptible to progressing to mild rosacea. Some of the common triggers for a facial flush are heat,
cold, emotions, exercise, topical irritants and allergic reactions.
Moderate Rosacea
as facial flushing becomes more frequent and intense, vascular damage occurs. This can result in long lasting redness, swelling and inflammatory
papules and pustules. Telangiectasia (damaged micro blood vessels, often visible on the surface of the skin) may be noticed in the areas where
flushing is worst.
Severe Rosacaea
characterised by intense bouts of facial flushing, severe inflammation, facial pain, swelling and burning sensations. Sufferers may develop
intolerance to products they were able to use before. Also inflammatory papules, pustules and nodules may be present. Some experience a bulbous
enlargement of the nose, known as rhinophyma. This is just a guide, you may of course experience symptoms outside these ranges.
