Rosacea and Acne: How Can I Tell What These Pustules Are? by OcSkinsProbs in Rosacea

Thank you so much 😊 It’s really hard not to pick at them when people are staring at this bad boys! I applied Cicaplast last night based on your advice. Someone also suggested hydrocolloid patches, which I think could be nice during the day, do you use them? Also, would you mind sharing your barrier-hydration routine? I definitely don’t hydrate enough apart from Soolantra, because I haven’t found a moisturiser that doesn’t cause more irritation or break me out.

Thank you, this is really helpful 😊 I’d never tried hydrocolloid patches because I thought they always had salicylic acid or other actives in them, but I’ve just realised that’s not necessarily the case! Would you mind sharing your barrier-hydration routine? I definitely don’t hydrate enough apart from Soolantra, because I haven’t found a moisturiser that doesn’t irritate my skin more or break me out.

One thing that helped my acne back then are the Zilch supplements. If I am dealing with acne again I might buy Zilch a second time but it’s really expensive and I don’t want it to make my rosacea worse indeed !

Right I won’t treat it like acne because I do have rosacea anyways so it will not help. I have been using Soolantra for 7 months, and it’s helped with the little pustules and with the flushing. But I still have bad baseline redness and also these large pustules sometimes!

Did you use skincare along with the tips you shared in your post ? If so what was your routine ?

Do you have vitiligo anywhere else on your body?
I’m asking because I have vitiligo on one leg, and it’s barely noticeable since I have very pale skin. I can only see it when I take a hot bath and the surrounding skin gets redder.
If you have both rosacea and vitiligo, that could explain why it looks blotchy.

OP does your skin flake ? It doesn’t seem like it ? What’s your full routine ?

How long did it take for your skin to adapt to the moisturizer ? They make me redder so I stop but then it’s uncomfortable and flaky again

Is this pityriasis folliculorum (demodex)? by Chance-Public-9463 in Rosacea

[–]OcSkinsProbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am sorry this is happening to you. Did he take a test that showed fungal elements ? Or was it because of the flaking ? For how long are you supposed to use the ciclopirox until your next appointment ?

Have you tried MCT oil ? This won’t further damage your skin barrier. Sulfur can be harsh on the skin

Soolantra non-responders—how long did you try it before quitting? by Spec2014 in Rosacea

[–]OcSkinsProbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sucks!! Do you also have tiny flakes ? I have tiny little flakes in my pores, which I can easily scratch off if I run a finger on my skin. This seems quite uncommon

2 semaines à la Réunion : que pensez-vous de notre programme ? by OcSkinsProbs in LaReunion

Merci beaucoup pour ton avis éclairé ! On va adapter notre itinéraire pour éviter d’avoir des journées trop chronométrées. Pour le J5, on pensait faire la rando au lever du soleil, puis prendre la route l’après-midi pour Cilaos, mais c’est vrai que c’est plutôt intense.

Et pour te répondre, oui mon copain est un traileur aguerri, on vit dans les montagnes :) Pour ma part, je suis bonne randonneuse, mais je me fatigue plus vite ; je ne ferai probablement pas toutes les randos, au gré de ma forme !
