My nose and cheeks are red 24/7 and there are stupid black dots on my nose. I went to a dermatologist and they said I had rosacea and prescribed me some exfoliating cream or something.

That thing did NOTHING. So I went back and they gave me the fucking skin blaster 5000 (tretinoin %0.05) or something because holy shit this thing demolishes my skin just as much as moisturizers do…

And recently my hands are doing the same thing, they are kind of cracked and shit but putting any moisturizer on makes it worse. Do I just go back and get something weaker or something?? I thought E would help but ig not…

    Try different moisturizers I guess. I was using special moisturizers for eczema and dermatitis, and they didn’t do shit. Now I just use that basic blue nivea moisturizer cream, and it’s working wonders

    there are special moisturizing day creams for rosacea. they have a green-ish tint to neutralize redness and SPF to protect against sunlight. personally, i quite like Avène
