- I am SO confused.
- Posted by jamie kate fraser
Ok, i have very funky skin. i have ezcema and rosasca. I am also oily in
places and dry in others. I went to Paula's Choice Skin Care to browse.I
went to the section on sunscreen and have found 2 different ones that fit me
but aren't to be used together. One says its for rosasca (sp?) but at the
same time is not for those with oily or combo skin. Well i have combo skin
dont it? i mean I have a oily nose, chin and upper cheek area, but my lower
cheeks with the rosasca on it is dry as is my forehead. So which one do i
use? The one for oily/combo skin or the mineral one for roscasa ? ugh. I am
also looking for a cleaner to help with large /clogged pores. I would
appreciate any feedback. I am sorry about the spelling but my Outlook Exp.
doesnt have a spell check in it.

You can get Rx topical medication to treat the rosacea and then see
what type of skin you have left to treat with OTC products. I do
mean this to help.

I think Kayper has made an excellent recommendation. If you try to treat the
large pores/oily skin, you may make the rosacea worse. Maybe it is best to get
an evaluation and the advice of the doctor.

your skin is also reacting to the rosacea and get these breakouts too..
that's part of the rosacea pattern.

i agree with the other posters: see a derm.
i too have an oily nose area, but dry in other places. i use mineral
oil based cleansers (like MAC cleansing lotion, clarins in the jar) for
makeup removal and then an Rx cleanser (plexion) on my rosacea areas.
for sunscreen, i first use eucerin lotion w/SPF 30, then a layer of
linda sy tinted zinc oxide (www.lindasy.com). i find it does not make
me oilier, but it is a thick rich product, so people with really oily
skin may not care for it.
good luck.
