  • Subjects who exhibit severe or advanced redness (persistent deep erythema, telangiectasia forming sprays, papules, pustules, nodules with variable plaque-like edema, or phymatous change).

  • Subjects who have used a personal product on the face prior to the study start, which in the opinion of the investigator could interfere with the evaluation of the test articles in the time frame below

    1. Retinoids and other vitamin A derivatives within 1 month
    2. Exfoliating and/or keratolytic products including alpha- or beta-hydroxy acids within 2 weeks
  • Subjects who have taken a medication prior to the study start, which in the opinion of the investigator could interfere with the evaluation of the test articles. These medications may include, but are not limited to, the use of any medication to treat rosacea, oral or topical antibiotics, steroids, antifungals, antimicrobials or acne medications for two weeks prior to study start or the time period specified below

    1. Systemic retinoids within 6 months
