Answer: -I tried to find the entire ingredient list online for this product and couldn't. If you have time, do you mind typing up the ingredient list. If you don't (I know you're extremely busy), that's fine. I did notice that this product has arnica in it which is supposed to be an irritant. Does this product have such a small amount that it wouldn't cause problems you think? -I trust Paula's recommendations and her research. She had a very interesting comment recently concerning my statements (in my book) about salicylic acid on rosacea skin. She was very professional and kind. I believe what it all boiled down to was treating the papulopusutular rosacea vs. the erythrotelangiecatic rosacea. I also believe that 2% concentration is much too high for most patients.
