Anyone else with rosacea?

[reader]

What are you using to treat it? What cosmetics do you use?

I have rosacea and acne. What a great combo. The rosacea is mostly on my nose although I do flush easily. I have a topical from the dermatologist that I put on 2 times per day. It's Nova something. I'll have to look. I use only Cetaphil (or the generics of it) cleanser and Cetaphil cream at night.

For cosmetics, I use the Bare Escentuals/Minerals line. I've tried pretty much everything out there and this seems to work the best for me. I had a lot of reactions to the liquid/cream foundations. And they also wouldn't stay on and my shiny red rudolph nose would show through. Not a problem with the Bare Minerals. In fact, it seemed to help my rosacea...my nose is a lot less red now after wearing the Bare Minerals for a couple years. I love them and will never go back to the others.
