I read in a science magazine that rosacea may be caused by mites on the skin and eyebrows. I have been covering my eyebrows, cheeks, nose and chin with an oil blend for facial skin (oil will block the breathing of other types of mites) and guess what no flare ups. I have evens stopped using my Rosex. Best of all I no longer have problems with my eyes that had previously started getting very sore and irritated.
Hi Can I ask what was the oil blend that you used? Have you stil had no flare ups nearly a month later?
I too have eye problems and get flare ups quite badly on my neck and will certainly give this a go!
I use a facial oil by Badger called Damascus rose with lavender & chamomile antioxidant face oil. I get this from I-herb. You could use virtually any oil including extra virgin olive oil. Look up Sea buckthorn oil as well. Oil your eyebrows mainly first and see how your skin goes. let me know how you go.
I had the same issue!!! But I have started using Body Empire line for rosacea - gentle facial cleanser and oil free make up remover - no break out, pimples whatsoever!!
Hello everyone. Gene here. Longtime rosacea sufferer. Been using this new cream called Rosenbalm that I found on Ebay for about a month now. Been working really good. I only had 2 very mild flare ups compared to my 8 usually bright red flare ups. Very impressed with the results and want to recommend to all sufferers. I believe the company is doing a sample special that wasn't available when I bought. Check it out and I hope it works for you as well.. Feel free to ask questions about my results.. (don't know much about the company) but I like them.
Gene
