    Jenny, I don't know if you have rosacea, but I do and I find any products with AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) are very irritating to my skin. I don't seem to have a problem with BHA though. But with rosacea every individual is different! As for whether they are 'safe' for dry eye or not, I really don't know, sorry.

    I have mentioned on another thread a website www.makeupalley.com which has a skin care forum which is a goldmine of information on products suitable for acne, rosacea, seb derm, etc. You might want to have a look on here.

        BHA is Beta Hydroxy Acid - of which salicylic acid is a type.
