“I have mild roseacea and tried this last summer before using the antibiotics that my doctor had suggested. Within days my skin calmed and I immediately stopped experiencing that crawling stinging sensation on hot evenings. I used the cream all summer and it protected well even on hot days, no more skin problems and less redness. I never needed antibiotics. A real test was a few months later when I went to the Caribbean as I thought I may suffer again but it worked a dream. Carried it with me all the time, again no sunburn and no skin problems at all.
My fair skinned sister-in-law was on holiday with me in the Caribbean. She was using Clarins face suncream but her skin was irritated and she'd developed spots and was really suffering. We shared my Kalme and her skin settled down immediately. As soon as she returned home she ordered her own.
It seems expensive for the bottle size but a little really does go a long way. I never use any other skin cream and no other suncream. I dont use it daily unless needed and sometimes use the night cream. I'm back on the site to order more.”
“I'm so pleased with it!it works great!this is my 3rd time reordering it and i receive a free kalme undercoat cream!!very happy!i will always reorder it!very very fast delivery too!”
“has made a great improvement to my skin, hardly any redness at all! The only downside is the texture and that you have to make sure that you have rubbed it in properly as it can leave white streaks on your face!”
“I have been using this for 2 1/2 weeks now and my face is much less red. I am still having some flare ups but am hoping with continued use these will become less frequent. You don't need to use very much so although expensive I think it will lase a while.”
“After using the day defence for 2 months ive noticed a difference the redness appears to have calmed down. I still get the occasional spot associated with rosacea but nothing like I was getting beforehand. Might be a coincidence but for what works out at ten pound a month its not worth taking the risk and not using this product. The alternative would be antibiotics which is a big no. One tip I have found is 'less is more' no need to put loads on your face apply thin.”
“I'm delighted Kalme have reinstated production of SPF25 - it works perfectly for my skin. I much prefer it to SPF30 although SPF30 is easier to spread on. The upsides: it's calming and soothing, and it helps reduce the redness on my skin - mild rosacea and some adult acne. The downsides: yes, it's quite thick and you have to rub it in properly. After applying I add on a little of the Silver Serum - I've certainly seen improvements in the last three weeks. Hopefully it will work for you, too.”
“. I have been using Kalmes Day Cream SPF 25 and Night Cream for 8 days and my skin is noticeably less angry and red, the areas affected are getting smaller, I have less flushing, I’ve been able to wear just a tinted Sun cream for very sensitive skin and have felt comfortable to show my skin in public were only thick makeup coverage would do before (and even then I was not happy). The effect seems to be cumulative rather than an instant miracle so I would advise using it for a bit before expecting results. If progress continues I expect my Rocasea to be completely unnoticeable very soon. Other than lifestyle changes, no skin care product has reduced my redness and inflammation like this so I’m really happy with the result so far. The creams are light and absorb very well (the day cream needs working in a bit), I have had to use more than my usual amount Liz Earle moisturizer which will make it much more expensive and is the reason I haven’t awarded top marks for affordability. I’ve only been looking for something like this for the past 20 years so it has however been well worth the investment!”
“Having read so many positive reviews; I almost wonder if I've been sent the wrong product? Poor, basic packaging (looks very amateur - dreadful sticky label over a plain white tube, crinkles if gets wet) - that was my first impression when I opened the pack (it WAS a quick delivery - however I paid for that!) The product itself has a dreadful unappealing texture - like watery, curdled yoghurt. There is no way I could get this to absorb into my skin ( fairly dry, rosacea, mature) - it left a thick white coat , in patches - despite applying a small amount. There is no way I could leave the house wearing this. The only positive I can see is that I could perhaps use this as a night cream / overnight face mask then wash it off in the morning - rather than throwing it away. Oh - and it didn't have any reaction to it, and my skin is sensitive.”
