Never ends does it??? I now seem to have itchy red facial skin I just want to SCRATCH until it bleeds?? Does anyone else get the same? Anti Allergy pills you can only take once a day cant you? So maybe topical cream is the answer.........I hope?
Any suggestions PLEASE

What products, soap, face cream etc., do you use. Also have you change what you use lately.

Could be you skin has decided it no longer like what you put on it.

Itchy facial skin was the first symptom of my rosacea.

Is that for me CLKD or for menopausalalways?

All of us!  It's easy in this cold wind followed by sunshine to neglect our facial skin ..........

Thanks Ladies for your words of wisdom :O)
I'll just have to go outside now to test the theory...

I haven't been outside sitting in the sunshine!! There's only rain clouds round here - none of the shiny stuff  - Bah Humbug!

I can't sit in the sun as the medication I have to take for my Rosacea is reactive to sunlight and can cause sensitivity.

I suffer with this. I read somewhere on this wonderful forum about Roche Posay Toleriane. Its for super sensitive skin. The one that suits me is the light fluid. It is instantly soothing and takes away that itchy wanting to scratch feeling. Boots sell it as does Amazon. I tried the heavier moisturiser creme but there is something in that that didn't suit at all.

Thanks Gnatty - off to buy it!

When mine was particularly bad I would lightly apply it, let it soak in for a few minutes then reapplied. Seemed to work. Good luck!
