Re: [rosacea] Re: oily skin?

Hi David (gabrielfan72),

How do your skin tone, flushing and burning feelings compare
with the rest of your family? It's good when rosaceans have
relatives who are going through the same thing or, even
better, are a bit older and can offer advice. I hope they're
sympathetic, but are you getting any practical help?

It must have been terrible for you, during that period when
you felt like your head was burning. It's good to hear that
you have improved so much already. Rosacea is full of ups
and downs, but you seem to be on an upswing and since you're
trying so hard, with luck you will soon be vastly improved.

As for frequency of face-washing, most people just go with
once or twice per day.

Kind regards,

Aurelia

... Hi David, D3 is, I believe, the most common form of vitamin D that is sold. However, there are other kinds like D2 so you want to be sure that it is the D3...

Yes, oily skin often goes along with rosacea. There seems to be a marked division into two camps: those with oily, spot-prone skin and those with very dry and...

Well I don't know many other people with rosacea to be honest, I'm not sure if dry hypersensitive skin would make one flush badly. From personal experience, I...

Hi David (gabrielfan72), Just another thought - If the main reason for wanting to wash more often is to prevent a build-up of oil, have you considered that...
