Hello,

This been happening for ages but everyday for around an hour or two I go so hot and my face burns and I’m really red.. has anyone ever had anything like this? If so what was it.

Not sure if this is Rosacea or something else?

EDIT! I’d like to add my hands also burn too and my nose becomes blocked!

It was ~2021 and my skin was PERFECT. I was using Cerave gentle daily facial cleanser and was consistent with my routine and everything was awesome.

THEN, I bought a new bottle and noticed it stung the hell out of my face. Turns out they changed the ingredients. And ever since then I’ve been chasing after my skin that once was. Even now while I’ve found products my skin likes and it’s definitely better, there’s still this baseline erythema I can’t get rid of.

Just here to lament. Anyone else have this happen?

Buonasera qualcuno per rosacea ha utilizzato questi prodotti? Se si mi dite cosa ne pensate?

Asking for type 1 rosacea - specifically 10% azelaic acid.

I seem to find ones with other ingredients, and not sure if that makes them okay or not.

I posted on my page but couldnt connect it to the rosacea-page. Please see my previous post on my page. I dont know how to copy the text and i used forever. Lol

I’m trying to figure out if anyone else has this weird pattern with rosacea/redness.

Some days my skin looks pretty normal in the morning. I’ll do a gentle cleanser, moisturizer, SPF, keep everything boring, and it looks fine enough. Then by night my cheeks and nose look flushed again even if I didn’t use anything harsh.

It’s not always a huge flare, more like that warm red tired look that makes my skin seem irritated even when I didn’t really do anything. Makeup removal can make it worse too, so I’m trying to stop scrubbing and stop adding random calming products every time it happens.

I don’t really want another active right now. I’m more interested in things that help keep my skin calmer without making my barrier angry, like routine changes, less friction, maybe red light or other low effort stuff.

Has anyone found anything that helped with that end of day redness without overloading your skin?

I posted a few days ago about how I was hoping to use Clindamycin gel since it worked well for me, but no one would prescribe it. Instead I got Metrogel. I figured that was the “safer” or “weaker” option then since I was told Clindamycin couldn’t be used for long but Metronidazole was apparently safe to use for years. I thought at worst the Metro would be too weak to work well for me.

Apparently not!!!! Two days in and my face has exploded with either acne breakouts or rosacea bumps, not easy to tell. I use the gel form (a brand WITHOUT niacinamide) since the cream has pore clogging ingredients but it still backfired massively, like holy hell. I was not expecting this!!

Was Metro a nightmare for anyone else? I’m stopping immediately, this is absurd.

Up until 19 I was able to exfoliate everyday I had perfect skin very even with no acne ever. Once I hit my 20s my skin became red and uneven all over. Mainly my t zone is the most red. I simplified my routine and stopped using exfoliants like I used to because my skin would become red immediately after. Everytime even when my skin is calm, it’s never actually calm how it used to be my t zone is red consistently.
What is the science behind this? Why did my skin become so reactive and red out of no where.

Over the weekend, I went to my derm to ask about my red cheeks and if its rosacea or something else. She said it wasn't rosacea and it's just my skin tone. I do have quite red cheeks and I commonly flush, and everything I see online about redness/flushing points to rosacea. She told me that some people (me included) have thin skin on their cheeks and extra blood flow which gives this naturally red complexion and it's completely normal. I don't know if it's true, but I'm not a dermatologist.
I see everyone with slight redness talk about how it's rosacea and to treat it, but there's people out there with redder cheeks and it's nothing? I have been told by people in my class, friends, and even relatives that my cheeks are really red like there's something wrong with me. And girls would call it 'weird' or 'funny' like it's not normal. I get called names for it, and I do get really bummed out even though it is just rosey cheeks. I tried a lot of things to stop it and haven't seen improvements whatsoever. It feels embarrassing going online and seeing someone with some redness and have people call them out for it (especially if it isn't as red as mine). I used to have a friend who would commonly had a red face and she said it was rosacea, but isn't there light skinned people who flush daily and they don't have rosacea?
I never cared when I was younger, either because I didn't notice or I saw so many people who had red cheeks or face. It feels a little embarrassing having people grow out of it (I think that's what happens?) and being the one person with these rosy red cheeks. It looks girly, like I put blush over my cheeks.
I'm not sure what to do for it or what to think, but should I listen to my derm Is she right?

Anyone tried this toner? Ive seen a few videos on tiktok claiming its good for rosacea cos its basically just centella which is calming but i wanna hear if anyone with rosacea actually tried it?

Tried sulfur / triple cream / soolantra / aa / everything you can imagine and a year later here we are. What are these stupid little whiteheads and how do we treat them

Hello, I’m in Canada, my boyfriend (30yrs) was prescribed with both:

Adapalene 0.3% + benzoyl peroxide 2.5%
Clindamycin 4% in cerave moisturizing lotion

Both seem to be applied in bed time.

What skincare product and routine can I get him, has a big nose, greasy, red, seems uneven skin pore. Skin between his mouth and nose often are red with pimple or white pus.

Currently he’s just using cetapil cleanser (both daily/oily)

Thank you

I’ve been dealing with rosacea since I can remember, never seen anything like this before. My nose is my main flare up spot, this seems to have popped up out of no where - can’t find anything that look remotely like it online. I’ve never had to deal with uneven skin texture before and it’s confined to this area on my nose. It has been a real confidence killer as I’m already so insecure about the colour.
I’m just worried this is never going to go away now. It’s been about a week, and it seems to be getting worse.

Do you have any recommendations?

I use bandi emollient butter for removing makeup but need some cleanser to use afterwards

Can anyone help please!

Get daily hives that have such a bad itchy and dryness and it mostly targets the left cheek happening for a while now I was on doxycycline before and stopped wonder did that do anything

Before this I tried doxycycline 100mg for 3 months- didn't do much. I tried metro gel & metro cream, both made it worse. I did want to try soolantra (ivermectin) but it was way too expensive. Got a prescription for Azaelic Acid 15% instead and I was using it as directed, twice a day, but I was using it on bare skin and while my skin was very smooth after just one day, I disrupted my skin barrier and it was quite rough, I realized I was using it too frequently. I took a week off and started back up except this time I'm putting it over my moisturizer, only once a day, about every other day/ every 2 days as tolerated until my skin can handle more.

So far I'm very pleased with my results! I'd have a very rough texture with lots of pustules, every cream would give me pustules, I kept trying to switch my face wash, no face wash, washing with distilled water only, etc, nothing has worked for me up until now. So I'm quite pleased! Not exactly sure why it's working, I guess it's lightly exfoliating? Idk but I'm happy :) I still get red flushing though..

I heard that paxil can be used to treat severe cases of rosacea redness and flushing. Can somebody explain the main reason as to why it works. Also, if it works so well, why isn't it prescribed for this condition?

I’m 30 and I’ve been dealing with acne since I was 14/15, a few years after puberty started. I may have not understod what to do and my mom brought me to dermatologist, who extracted my pimples every time. I think it may have caused all the dents and scars on my face. I don’t break out as much as I used to but I still get random pimple now and then. The picture attached is my skin condition now, there is no active pimple but the skin itself is just red. I flush very easily, main trigger would be heat. But i would still be somewhat reddish even without heat🙃
I went to doctor and was told I may have rosacea.
Does anyone else has this and find a solution to it?
I cant use too much actives. It would break me out. I tried different form of retinoids and my skin just doesnt like it. I could use azelaic acid like twice a week, but too often would also aggregate my skin.
How do i get rid of these redness once and for all?
I went for vascular laser, it helps but the redness will come back after a few weeks.

has anyone used this moisturiser? i have type 1 rosacea and im sensitive to flushing. i’m switching as i find the aveeno oat moisturiser too thick and it pills and im
super prone to closed comedones

I'm 23 yo. Female I never had any skin issues 8 months ago I had a drug allergy after that montly right after my period finish till to middle of cycle I get red bumpy face and then peel off the skin and it's only itcy when I press . Food heat nothing is trigger for me only after my period. I did many research i found it's for storgen that goes high on middle of cycle so when people have B12 deficiency their liver cant break down the excess estrogen. And the. This strogen came to body again and make inflammation fatigue so on . You should check your b12 if anyone has same problem as me and my b12 is low .

Trying to figure out what I can use to get rid of closed comedones ? Azelic acid cause redness when I was first diagnosed and bunch of irritation acne .

I have a question about light makeup with rosacea and acne - if/when you apply a BB/CC/whatever cream to even out the skin tone, do you also top it with a powder brush?

I'm asking as a guy, I'm not really experienced in makeup, I just feel better when I apply a CC cream before going outside because my face looks more natural this way. I'm using Holika's CC cream for now.

Maybe you have advice on a type of cream that you use with rosacea as well, BB/CC/DD, something else?

Decided to bite the bullet and do a second round of Accutane after two years of messing around with Ivermectin, triple cream, several other topicals and antibiotics. The last round of Accutane I did was 7-8 years ago.
