Just when I thought I had found products that work for me, I break out!  Specifically, I'm breaking out from Aveeno Ultra-Calming Moisturizing Cream, which I totally love (except for the break-outs, of course) because it is very soothing.  But I know it's giving me big cysts on my cheek - I haven't broken out in ages, other than just little clogged pores here and there - I can even use straight Vaseline on my face and not break out!

I know it's the Aveeno because I'll quit using it for a few days and the cyst will start to go away.  Then I'll need some anti-inflammatory action, so I'll start using it again, marvel at how soothing it is , and then I'll start getting a cystic pimple again.  I've gone through this cycle three times now, and every time, it's the Aveeno.  Whoa is me!!

I bought the Eucerin Daily Perfecting Lotion and have been using that for the last 2 days, which is really quite nice.  I've been using it at night too, even though it has a sunscreen in it because it's really taking the redness away (and I judge based on how it is AFTER I wash my face, since it is green-tinted after all).  Today I used it with Neutrogena Visibly Even foundation and I was quite pleased - no irritation, no itching, no redness - I may have a winning combo for day.  But for night, I'm still looking.

Any good anti-inflammatory moisturizers for night that anyone knows of?  I've tried the Eucerin Redness Relief Soothing Night Cream, but it makes me flush.  Anything else that anyone is having success with?

Thanks for letting me ramble.
