This product did not work for me

I purchased this on recommendation that it would help reduce the redness from my rosacea. I used the Riche formula as I also have very dry skin.
The product is supposed to be unscented but it smells like a musty basement. I did not notice a significant reduction in redness nor dryness.
I have noticed as well that the product actually stings when I put it on my face. Not every single time and to varying degrees. Some days it went on without issue, other days there was a slight tingle and on the worst days it brought tears to my eyes.
My coworker uses this product daily and swears by it. I was very disappointed not to get the same result.
