Frequently Asked Questions about Kopec Naturals Rosacea Relief

By Laura Kopec

 

Our first and foremost priority is for you to improve the quality of your skin & reduce and possibly eliminate your Rosacea. Many of our customers sampling our 1oz and purchasing our 4 oz Rosacea Relief have had similar questions, so we hope this list of frequently asked questions we improve your chances of doing so.

 

  1. You mention my skin might appear worse before getting better. Why?

 

Because everyone’s skin pH and internal pH is different, skincare products work differently on different people. The individuality of our chemical makeup is also why Rosacea is such a complicated condition. Because our products are designed to improve the actual function of your skin, your skin may go through various changes while your skin pH balances. On occasion this has been the appearance of worsening symptoms. Very few customers report this effect, but my commitment to full disclosure and running an ethical business compels me to share this possibility.

The other possibility of worsening before improving symptoms is due to the fact that as your skin improves and gets better, your skin will work better and therefore become more sensitive to chemicals that are harmful. Your skin will do a better job of rejecting other products that are harmful to your skin. Symptoms may also appear worse if you are using another product that might counteract the results of Rosacea Relief.

 

  1. Why should I use Rosacea Relief alone?

 

Again, you may experience a worsening or symptoms, or an adverse reaction if you mix the potency of Rosacea Relief with other products. With Rosacea Relief your skin will do a better job of rejecting harmful toxins/harmful ingredients in skincare products, maybe even some of your other Rosacea products, it will be difficult to determine the results of Rosacea Relief without eliminating these other products. There are countless chemical toxins in multiple skincare products, and it can be impossible to determine which one might be causing or acerbating your Rosacea. I only know what Rosacea Relief can do for your skin, but I cannot stand behind my product if you are mixing Rosacea Relief with other topical remedies. If you feel you need your doctor’s permission to use Rosacea Relief alone, please do so.

 

  1. What should I be looking for to know Rosacea Relief is working for me?

 

If you see the slightest change in your skin within the first couple of weeks Rosacea Relief is working for you. If your skin is responding to the Rosacea Relief it is only a matter of time before the remedy begins to completely clear your Rosacea. Some sample customers are looking for completely clear skin in the first few days, and that is not always a possibility. The longer you have had Rosacea sometimes the longer it takes to undo the damage to the skin and clean the skin of the toxins, and balance the skin pH. If you were a recipient of our recent promotion, the sample is intended to see if your skin responds to the Rosacea Relief at all and if so to commit to our Rosacea skincare regime.

 

  1. How long will it take for my skin to completely clear while using Rosacea Relief?

 

Unfortunately I cannot give a specific time frame. Some customers experience significant changes as early as the first couple of days, some it takes weeks and some it takes months. If you are experiencing any change in your skin, and your skin is responding positively to Rosacea Relief it is only a question of staying the course. If you use other remedies in addition to the Rosacea Relief you are interfering in the effectiveness of the Rosacea Relief and there is no telling how long if ever your condition will clear.

 

  1. Can I use Rosacea Relief with my other products?

 

As most of you are aware, there are many confusing reasons why Rosacea occurs, in some cases the side effects of Rosacea medicines are the same as the very symptoms of Rosacea. Since it is so difficult to determine if one of your skincare products is the cause of your Rosacea even a product developed specifically for Rosacea (you can develop a sensitivity to one of your ingredients over time) or if an ingredient is acerbating your Rosacea, it becomes essential to discontinue all other products to determine the results of the Rosacea Relief. The ingredients in Rosacea Relief are specifically chosen ingredients meant to do a specific job, and I cannot stand behind the effectiveness of the Rosacea Relief if your skin is dealing with more than the chosen ingredients in Rosacea Relief.

 

  1. If I cannot use other products, what can I wash my face with? Do you have a moisturizer?

 

We make a wonderful SLS free (see question #8) facial wash that is also a combination facial wash and moisturizer called Skin Luxury. Skin Luxury was designed to moisturize and clean the skin and because I could not find a facial wash that I could in good conscious recommend when customers asked. Too many soaps strip the skin of its natural moisture. Not only does the Skin Luxury provide proper moisture, but like all our products are designed to improve the function of the skin in that area, it will improve the skin’s ability to maintain its own moisture. Skin Luxury contains naturally occurring sunscreen, skin nutrients and antioxidants, and the latest research on one of its ingredients, orange peel indicates it can help prevent skin cancer. It is difficult to know what is in other brands and their products, but since our goal is not only to clear your skin, but to improve the function of your skin, we simplify the process by reducing the contaminants (such as SLS) that cause skin conditions.

 

  1. I purchased the complete recommended regime for Rosacea. I have the Rosacea Relief, Skin Luxury Facial Wash, SLS Free Body Wash, and Adult Dermatitis Relief. Can I have a specific recommendation for how to use these products and in what order?

 

Some of our customers use the Skin Luxury at night to wash off their day and use the Rosacea Relief after they wash with Skin Luxury and then they go to sleep with nothing else to interfere or contaminate their skin. The skin can improve while they sleep. Then some of our customers use the Rosacea Relief in the morning before putting on makeup or starting their day. Some of our male customers find better results if they use the morning application of Rosacea Relief after they shave. Some of our customers find the Skin Luxury to be too much moisture if used twice a day. A number of our customers use the SLS Free Body Wash in their morning shower (better lather when used in a bath pouf or sponge) and some find they want to use it as a shampoo as well. Especially those customers that find their shampoo can trigger an episode of Rosacea.

 

  1. What is SLS and why should I avoid it?

 

SLS stands for Sodium Lauryl (or Laureth) Sulfate or since the recent bad press on it sometimes it is referred to as Sodium Laureth Sulfate. SLS is the ingredient that causes your liquid soaps, shampoos and toothpastes to foam. But SLS is quickly becoming a well know irritant and toxin. It can be such an irritant with anyone suffering from skin conditions, that we strongly recommend avoiding any and all products with SLS. Since our goal is to help you clear your skin, we hope you will consider removing at the very least the most common skin toxin, SLS, and we know it is in everything. And we try to make this as easy as possible by providing you with SLS Free products.

 

  1. What do you recommend for shampoo that is SLS Free?

 

Aubrey Organics is an upstanding company and has recently added an SLS free line of shampoos and conditioners.

 

  1. Can I email or call you if I have questions?

I am here to help point you in a certain direction and provide quality products for you, but ultimately you are in charge of your health and taking care of yourself.
