Hello from Kimmiedp
Hey WIMJ community 🙋
Is anyone familiar with the brand OSEA or had/heard anything about causing any reactions? I'm 47 and I have never had any problems with breakouts or a skin reaction to a skin care line before... I can't say for certain if OSEA is what did it but my chin, nose and upper lip was COVERED in kinda painful little red bumps that piled for over a month!! I did change back to using good molecules niacinamide brightening toner and strivectin super c and retinol As well as the super c moisturizer. I did start getting simponi infusions for RA and went back on methotrexate. As far as OSEA I was trying out their ocean face cleanser and atmosphere protection cream moisturizer. My face has cleared up finally 😬
Thank you 🤗

The OSEA moisturizer contains a lot of essential oils: https://whatsinmyjar.com/product/osea-atmosphere-protection-cream. You probably had an allergic or irritant reaction to them... Sorry you had to go through this! I might be safer to transition to fragrance-free skincare for you...
I'm just seeing this. I'll check that out. Thank you so much for your response
Also, maybe this quick read can help (it's actually common to have no problem with potential irritants for a long time, but then get a reaction "out of the blue"): https://whatsinmyjar.com/resources/sensitive-skin/why-has-my-skin-become-sensitive-all-of-a-sudden
That was a good read!!!! Thanks! It made me more curious about the medication and infusion along with already having a weakened immune system from the RS, those medications make it even more susceptible to a lower immune system. Could that possible be it? I Changed my facial cleaner as well but cut back to only one cleanse rather than 2 different once for a double cleanse. Ahhhhh...... I have faith we will figure it out lol. Thank you again so very much and next time I buy any skincare I'll use your button 😜
Glad you sent this! It doesn't appear to be a very useful moisturizer at all
