Sensitive Skin or Rosacea?

If you have been suffering with what you have thought to be sensitive skin and have not found any products that seem to help- have you considered that you may have Rosacea? A lot of people assume that they have sensitive skin, when in fact, they are inflicted with Rosacea.

To find out if you possibly have Rosacea, you should cease using all skin products, except for Cetaphil cleanser and a fragrance-free moisturizer. If you just had sensitive skin, restricting exposure to irritants and allergens would cure your skin. If after a few days or even a week, your skin is not improving- then it is time to see a dermatologist.

The upside to having Rosacea, is that a doctor can prescribe medicine or ointments to clear you right up (or at least help quite a bit). And if you suffer from Rosacea, even a mild form, getting it treated will really help your skin. Not to mention your self-confidence and self-esteem.

So if you have sensitive skin, please also educate yourself to the other conditions that could be causing or adding to your problem.
