    Has helped with my rash

    Has helped with some rash that is perioral dermatitis or at least resembles it. Noticed results after just a couple of days.

    Stinky!

    I unfortunately can't get used to the smell! ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ Do you get any effect if you use it as a face mask an hour before jumping in the shower? Or does it need to sit overnight?

      Hey Elvira! Make sure the skin gets to choose with the product and on the points you want to treat, so maybe it won't be too troublesome regarding the scent! ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ‘Œ You definitely don't need to sleep with it, rather take it in stages for short periods that suit your skin! โค

    Best for PD and underground pimples

    Wonder product really! The only thing that can keep perioral dermatitis (PD) in check and helps a lot as a spot treatment for hormonal pimples I get during menstruation. I recommend this to everyone! Smells a bit fishy, but worth it ๐Ÿ˜‚ and yes, it is a bit expensive, but worth it too! See the video for before I got my hands on the SOS paste again and after a few weeks ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿคฉ have also used it in combination with Elixir's Sulfactil cleanser, mind you.

    Better?

    What is the difference between this and the Sulfur in Essex cream APL that you can get by prescription?

      Hey Malinne ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘‹ The biggest difference is that Elixirs paste contains 10% sulfur compared to the other one which has 5%. I would say that Elixirs cream is more effective since sulfur is the key ingredient in these products ๐Ÿค All the best!

    Combine with moisture

    Hi! Can this be combined with Dynasty cream from Beauty of Joseon as moisture on top? :)

      Hey Elin!๐ŸŒž๐Ÿฉท Yes, you can combine them! ๐Ÿ’– But if you feel that SOS Paste doesn't really give the effect you want when used together with Dynasty Cream, you can try using SOS Paste on its own and then apply it here on the areas where you haven't applied the paste๐Ÿ‘‡ lyko.com/sv/la-roche-posay/la-roche-posay-toleriane-dermallergo-creme-40-ml Try it and see what works best for you!๐Ÿ˜Š Take care!

    Ease in

    Hey! I have PD and seborrheic eczema and just got this at home, but I'm unsure about how to ease the product in. How often should I use it to start, and after how long should I increase the usage, and when can I start the actual 10-day course?

      Hi Katarina! There is no obvious answer to that question as it depends on how the skin reacts to the product and how severe the symptoms are. Now I donโ€™t know anything more about you and your skin, but start every other evening plus moisture on top and feel after a few times before you increase ๐Ÿ‘Œ It should only be applied locally. Good luck ๐Ÿ’›

    Makeup?

    Hey, is it okay to use makeup on top of this cream or should you avoid it?

      Hey Bianca! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿปโ˜€๏ธ It's best to avoid makeup on top of this product. It is designed to be used as a spot treatment overnight on pimples and inflamed areas. Makeup on top can impair the product's effectiveness and prevent the skin from breathing, which can make the pimples heal slower ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ If you want something that works both under makeup and as a treatment during the day, it might be better to choose a lighter product, like an acne gel or something similar ๐Ÿ˜Š Take care! โœจ

Description
Ingredients

The SOS Paste is a problem solver that helps with a variety of skin issues. It is effective against various types of skin imbalances and is used locally on the problem area. With its high concentration of sulfur, it inhibits inflammation and provides a noticeable improvement in acne, rosacea, perioral dermatitis, redness with rashes, bumps, and seborrheic eczema after a short treatment period. The cream treats, prevents, and calms without causing irritation.

Use:
Apply a thin layer locally to breakouts or affected areas. Primarily recommended for evening use, but in cases of severe outbreaks, it can also be used morning and evening. To reduce potential dryness, it's recommended to spot treat with moisturizer afterward.

For acne: Use for 3 consecutive evenings.
For rosacea: Use for 3 evenings in one week, with a day's break between each application.
For perioral dermatitis: Use for 10 consecutive days, morning and evening, then take a break for 3 days before spot treating in the evenings if outbreaks persist.
