After suffering with Perioral dermatitis on and off for 10 years and after a year of using topical steroids whixh have severely compromised my skin I decided to start using amperna and it is the ONLY thing I can use to control my flare ups and soothe my skin. My skin is also super hydrated and softer than ever so now i will be buying the full range and I wouldnt use anything else. Super happy I found these products!

I was at such a loss- I went to the derm for my PD (thought it was eczema and had been putting steroid creams on for a month! ugh!!!) and was prescribed 6 week course of topical and oral antibiotics. I couldn't fathom taking antibiotics that long and had read that PD often comes back after stopping antibiotics. I went for a routine dental exam and told my hygienist to please not use fluoride (i'd read it could be a trigger and switched to fluoride free toothpaste). The hygienist told me her friend had PD and used Amperna and that she swears by it (I live in NY and had never heard of Amperna). At this point I had done 2 weeks of "zero therapy" and my face was a dry, flaky mess. I was so nervous to put anything on my face because the zero therapy was starting to stop the spread and redness- likely the flare from the steroid creams. I ordered the Soothing Duo and thought I'll try anything to help with the dryness. Now, I am SO in love with these products - WOW. They are soothing, hydrating, did NOT aggravate my skin in any way - which is saying a lot and the smell is also beautiful and light.

I am going to continue ordering this duo - after a month the redness/dryness/flakiness is nearly all gone, its just a small red patch. My healing was not linear as some days bumps reappeared or red patches popped up but I tried to be patient and wash with only cool water, and apply the creams morning and night. I really think Amperna is the greatest gift for people with sensitive skin - thank you for creating this healing, calming and soothing product. I am SO glad I found Amperna.

I had perioral dermatitis for months and had lost hope. I am in the USA and found Amperna while searching the internet for something, anything after everything my dermatologist recommended didn’t work! My irritation cleared up in a month of using this duo and 6 months later I am reordering along with more/new products! So grateful to have found this skincare.

I am so thankful I found Amperna. My PD was caused by steroids. Not just 1 type, but 3!!! I was prescribed flonase (steroids), then and inhaler for a cough I had while sick (steroids), then I started to get this recurring red bump on my face. It was thought to be eczema potentially, so what was used on it… steroids! I started to get more red bumps on my face so I went to the dermatologist. She prescribed me Metro-gel to kill the bacteria on my face. It helped for about 2 weeks and then didn't. She then gave me a RX for Tacrolimus (immunosuppressant) to use with the metro-gel. So now not only was I killing the bad bacteria on my face, but also the GOOD bacteria and what's worse, suppressing my immune system again. These meds only "helped" for maybe 2 weeks each. After they stopped doing anything for me I searched the internet yet again and found Amperna. It was a good price point and had great reviews so I figured it was worth a shot.

After only 3 weeks of use the inflammation on my face was gone. I was left with a little redness which Kiri and I discussed during my coaching session. She assured me that usually subsides once the skin heals. Now that it has been 7 weeks my skin is nearly all the way healed. I just have the tiniest of redness.

SERIOUSLY if you are on the fence GIVE THIS A TRY!!! It's worth it! My go-to skin care and my skin has never looked this good. Thank you Kiri!!

I had hit rock bottom with my skin, and bought the soothing duo in a moment of desperation. I was diagnosed with PD about 2 weeks prior and was very much in the 'it has to get worse before it gets better' phase. I felt lost about what I should or shouldn't put on my face, and I didn't receive much help from my dermatologist, who just wanted to prescribe me a long course of antibiotics- no thanks! My skin was so itchy that it was hard to fall asleep, and the weather was going through a particularly cold spell so it exacerbated the flare up and my skin felt awful. It was red and raw around my nose, and I had red patches emerging around both eyes. It was the holidays and I received many questions about my face and why it was so red- I was mortified. After much research online and sorting through what felt right to me, I decided to try the soothing duo and I am glad I did! I took Kiri's advice and went down to rinsing my face with water only and then applying the serums morning and night. After following this regimen for about a month, my skin calmed down and the itchiness got better, but I still had red splotches around my nose and both eyes. At this point I began to use the ultra gentle soothing cleanser once/day at night before I applied the soothing duo. At this time I was also prescribed topical antibiotic and antifungal creams, which I layered under the soothing duo. Once all this was in action, the redness really began to heal and I can now say that I am PD free. AMEN!!! I continue to use the soothing duo and ultra gentle cleanser morning and night. Thank you for making these amazing products and for guiding us through what is such an emotionally and physically tough condition. It is great to know that these products won't make any PD flareup worse- they are safe to use and really do have a soothing and calming effect on inflamed skin. I would recommend to anyone who is struggling to get their flare up under control, and would also recommend being open minded and trying what feels right to you, while also giving things time to work. Healing the skin takes time, nothing will heal this condition overnight and anything that claims to should be a red flag!!!
