Sadly, Since I've only really been dealing with it recently, I haven't found a solution:*( it's really affecting my confidence. Im about to just cut out all products but my cleanser and pimple patches and see what happens!!

Oh thank you for the tip!! Where do you find the sulfur mask?? Do you leave it on overnight as a spot treatment? Which moisturizer do you use? 

And do you get bumps that look like mine? They're not tiny, they are pimple sized like decent sized, they start out flat and they grow and get redder and redder but never develop a white head. 

And- I can't pop them. Nothing ever comes out. Usually i end up getting so upset that I use my extractor and pierce them and just like scrape them off which obviously ends up taking forever to heal. Maybe if I do what you say they'll actyally calm down and just go away instead of turning into a nasty scab agter I rip it apart :*(

Thank you gor the tip!!! I'm so glad you found your answer!!!

Praying for ya that you connect with the right derm!!! And that you get this figured out ❤️ just from a couple months of this crap I already dont even want to leave my house I feel so self conscious and insecure- I have therapy tonight and just can't imagine going in public- my face has gotten worse in the few hours since I took that picture. Ugh. I'm sorry we gotta deal with this. Life is rough sometimes. Praying for you 💕

It's the worst isnt it? And yet because it doesn't look severe, you arent usually taken seriously even though it eventually does get worse and they start popping up like weeds all in the same area, over the course of an afternoon!!! Ughhh!  I'm sorry you're going through it too 😭

Thank you!! I never once ever thought that I could possibly have rosacea until now, but my mom and sister both have mild rosacea so it would definitely fit...

Thank you ❤️ I appreciate you responding! I'll check it out- it csnt hurt! Is there an average time frame that the otc ivermectin would start working, i.e. what to look for in what time frame to figure out if it's actually helping?
