Women's Health Natural Beauty

Ugh!!! Have developed rosacea, or maybe I have had it for a while and it was misdiagnosed....Has recently got much worse. Anyone interested in a discussion group around this hideous condition i.e. to trade great ideas and products which work, tips to manage outbreaks etc.? There is a good Rosacea Support Group it is U.S. based but most products are American (but in desperation I have ordered one to try).

The news about the oils is wonderful, I did a couple of aromatherapy courses with In Essence many years ago, so I am sorry to say I didn't even think about essential oils. Silly me! Can you advise the best carrier oil to put on the skin? i.e. sweet almond, jojoba oil, other? Also, what do you think of jojoba oil as a moisturier for rosacea affected skin?
I have excellent nutrition, the suggestions you make are a normal part of my diet. I think that is one of the frustrating things about this - I eat so well, have never smoked, don't take drugs, don't ever drink alcohol. I do think it is partially menopause related. What do you think? It does seem that skin conditions really flare up at this time. Thanks for the information you posted, if you could let me know about which carrier oil would be best for the face and also how many drops of each oil to use. Also - sorry more questions - should I use a combination i.e. German chamomile and lavendar, or neroli and GC?

Hi,
I have rosacea as well and at the moment its under control. I'm using two things AZ Clear Action (Azelaic acid) creame and QV face wash. It was prescribed by pharmacist. Hope it will work for you people as well.

I have started breaking out on my face and neck with tiny pimples and at the same time have very dry skin around my eyes and ear lobes???

MSM Sulfur is great for the skin. Buy a cream containing sulfur, (or even mix some of the powder into a cream containing vitamin E. I squeezed a vitamin E and a vitamin A capsule into the cream as well), and it will reduce or even get rid of acne rosacea. Taking the MSM powder daily, along with Vitamin C powder (calcium ascorbate or any ascorbate C powder), or even just swallow or chew vitamin C tabs. It will greatly improve your skin, make your hair shiny and generally improve your overall well-being. It's great for arthritis sufferers too, as it reduces inflammation of joints. Vitamin C helps sulfur work better. Sulfur is the 'inflammation curer' in the body. Burning feet syndrome, or any burning sensation in the body calls for sulfur. Homeopathic sulfur is also a good remedy.

I forgot to mention that eating your greens, which contain sulfur, also will improve your condition/s. Nuts and seeds, and some protein also contain sulfur, and eggs of course. Many foods contain sulfur, but sometimes you need the extra boost that MSM can give you. It's not harmful, and any not used by the body is flushed out of your system, so you can't 'overdose' on it.
