Thanks for all the tips. My sister has Rosacea and it is now under control with her prescription drug Minocycline. Her skin is very sensitive and she really has to be careful so I will pass on your additional information. X

hello .an antibiotic called Docycyclyne (DOXY) cleared my roscesa up along with a gentle cleanser called Bioderma AR water and a cover up/ treatment Bioderma AR BB cream it is like a makeup and treatment in one and is brilliant.. you will probably need a low dosage longer term maybe 2/ 3 months treatment with the Doxy but amazing no side effects for me and the pain went in 24 hours and inflamation and redness cleared up within a week and continued now I am free but there is NO CURE for this ailment but the doxy will help when you have a flare up love it got my life and self esteem back.. ask your doctor and get good advice i sis a lot of research before I went to my doctor and asked gfor the Doxy he agreed that is was the best treatment as before with another doctor I was treated for acne ..... completely wrong!! good luck from a fellow sufferer...
