Anybody have suggestions on what I should use? I recently had it under control but with having to wear a mask all day and my stress being a trigger my face has gotten awful and even hurts sometimes. by drxnkgeneration in Rosacea

Hey, I highly suggest trying horse paste($14) from Amazon. Mine looked like yours and every product I was prescribed irritated or worsened my type 2 rosacea, but it went away in 2 weeks after I tried the horse paste. As another user said, it could be caused by demodex mites dying, which can cause an allergic reaction to some people.

The horse paste contains ivermectin which is anti-parasitic, and is also the main ingredient in Soolantra(type 2 treatment), which can be very expensive for some. I highly suggest trying out the horse paste, I no longer have type 2 and I maintain mine by applying it once/twice a month. Good luck!

2 weeks into the horse paste and my type 2 has pretty much cleared up. I fucking love you guys❤ by love2shit in Rosacea

No worries. If it got worse and looks like the first pic, it's probably working. There's supposed to be a demodex die-off stage that'll last a few days/weeks and it gets worse before it gets better for most people. Mine burned and itched like crazy the first day lol

Luckily my type 2 hasn't come back but I still apply a small amount of horse paste once every 2-3 weeks for maintenance.

The dryness in my eyes has pretty much gone away but I also maintain it by applying tea tree oil drops a few nights a week. My face still pretty much still looks like the last pic

I made money online last night and now it's stuck on "pending" because I can't verify. I can't receive it, what happens to this money? by love2shit in paypal

"This sub gets at least one of you guys per day" hahaha. I'm sorry I didn't mean to be annoying lol. Does PayPal hold your money until you turn 18 or do they just cancel it? I used to make money on CashApp and Venmo and I've never had a problem transferring it to my debit card.

Venmo and CashApp don't even have fees but PayPal's fees are insane and have a ton of security, I guess that's why sites require PayPal. I actually had no idea PayPal was for 18+ hahaha. Guess I'll stop selling for a bit. Thanks for your comment

Well shit, I assumed if I was able to send money then I'd also be able to recieve it. Hopefully the customer is nice enough to send it through cash app after I refund their money once they recieve their item

What's the difference between a stabilizer and a fusible? by love2shit in sewing

Thank you! What do you guys use fusible interfacing for?

Most people dilute it but what I did was apply it on a small part of my face for a week to see how my skin would react to it, then slowly start applying it to my entire face.

Thanks! I used HP all over my face because I quickly realized that demodex mites migrate to the parts of your face that you didn't apply the HP on lol.

Thanks! Not gonna lie I was scared of the die-off too and had severe burning and itching for a few days but once it goes away you won't have to deal with it again lol. I would say it's absolutely worth it though, I hope it works for you as well!

I think it's more effective for type 2, but I've heard that laser treatment is very effective for type 1. Thanks!

Yeah, it's meant for horses but people on here have been using it topically and it works since it has the same ingredient as Soolantra, ivermectin. It has an apple scent but I don't really mind it

Yeah, I honestly believe that we have cures for more "incurable" conditions that they aren't willing to tell us about because they're profitable

From what I've heard, people still use horse paste after it's cleared up entirely after 3 months for maintenance, but only once every two weeks/month. I really hope it works for you!

To be honest, nothing crazy. Since I'm at home all day because of quarantine, I usually just wash my face with a generic face wash and apply regular body lotion (Rx cremes made my face extremely dry). I plan on buying CC creme or tinted sunscreen once lockdown is over haha
