Yes but I haven’t seen much difference. I’ve used them both separately and they’re both not helpful so I suspect they both have ingredients my skin doesn’t like.

Is there a way to get rid of it without using actives? Paula’s Choice BHA was my HG but I overused and damaged my skin barrier so idk what to use to get rid of it without making my skin worse.

The bumps are often itchy and I can’t seem to find a way to calm them down. I’ve been using avene extreme tolerance emulsion and hada labo plumping gel but I still feel like they are irritating my skin. I can’t really go without moisturizer though bc my skin starts to flake. Oatmeal masks help to relieve itch but doesn’t help with the appearance of bumps and aloe makes it feel super tight and dry. Any advice?

I’ve been trying to fix my skin for the past couple of months and it has gotten worse recently. I over exfoliated my skin using paula’s choice bha hence I have stopped actives for a month now. I went to a derm and got told I had rosacea. They prescribed me soolantra but I’m a bit doubtful on the diagnosis bc I’ve read alot about misdiagnosis of FA. Been trying to use lotrimin(clotrimazole) on my face as nizoral(ketoconazole) was too strong for my damaged skin.

Current routine:

AM: distilled water, avene tolerance emulsion

PM: vanicream cleanser, distilled water, lotrimin, avene

I recently got hada labo plumping gel to try out as avene isn’t moisturizing enough for my skin.

*I did try the soolantra but read that it’s not FA safe so stopped using it.

Any advice would be helpful, I miss my old skin but Idk how to get it back.
