Rosacea
Hi Ladyh,
Not sure whether you did get some replies here already. I can only share my experience with Rosacea from which I suffer since 2004. I use metronidazole gel. Not the cream, the cream is not hydrating enough for most people. I let the gel dry before I apply my moisturizer. What kind of moisturizer you need depends on your skintype, but many who suffer from Rosacea have dehydrated and sensitive skin. I personally use products by Clarins and Ren for dehydrated and sensitive skin. And occasionally Lancome because they have a lotion with salicylic acid. Don't go overboard with that because it dehydrates the skin. I only use it the first day when I have a flare up. It definitely calms down the skin. Probably other lotions with salicylic acid will do too. I can also recommend the book " Rosacea, your self-help guide"by Browstein and Shoemaker. Which helped me identifying my triggers. Hope this is of any help to you.
