I recently had a facial where the aesthetician used Eminence products. I have very sensitive skin that has a tendency to break out. She used their Calm products. I ordered them via ebay for more reasonable prices as they are expensive. I am 77 and have some rosacea. So far can't really see alot of improvement but I was finding the Tatcha line and Paula's Choice and Peter Thomas Roth's products were too strong. I had used those the past several years. ( obviously not at the same time! ) Anyone use Eminence?

@elruth - I've used products from this line in the past.  The aesthetician I had been seeing from time to time used them in her practice.  I liked them but buying them became a bit inconvenient for me because the aesthetician didn't stock a lot of product so I'd have to wait to get my items until she was putting in an order.  Because of that, I could actually run out of something and not have an immediate replacement.  FYI - be careful ordering Eminence Organics from eBay or Amazon.  Due to the Eminence philosophy and formulations, their products aren't as shelf stable as others.  Most products have a 2 yr. shelf life when unopened and 1 yr. opened.  Some brands, like Isomers, can be even longer.  Eminence products only have a 1 yr. shelf life.  I'm a fan of both eBay and Amazon, but you run the risk of getting expired or nearly expired product when buying that way, unless your seller specifies a manufacturing or expiration date.

The spa where I go for my manicures and waxing sells Eminence, and I know it's one of the lines they use for their facials.  Last month while I was waiting for my manicure, I started looking at the Eminence display and decided I needed to give it a try.  My manicurist uses some of its lotions and potions and I asked her if I should use it.  She said yes, she really likes it, she has sensitive skin.  She recommended for me the Firm Skin Starter Set.  I really like it, and I just wish I could get into the habit of using it every day.  I'm so used to my Dove soap > Clinique DDM lotion routine.  lol!  But I think the products are lovely, they have a nice scent, and are very soothing.  I suggest you purchase one of their starter kits for your skin type.
