I am 44 and the mother of a DS age 2. Ihave always had slightly temperamental skin however recently (the past year) I get these lovely red and sore big bumps around my nose and cheeks. They might hang around for weeks..
I think I have mild rosacea and wash with a mild cleanser but don't know which moisturiser to use. My skin is combination/oily.
All advice/tips most appreciated. Thank you.

Well Ladies it's official, I have rosacea! Went to see Dr this morning and he put me on a course of antibiotics - Erythrocin 250mg and a gel - Rozex 7.5mg. Have any of you been perscribed these, would love to hear your experiences?
Now I just have to find the right face wash and moisturiser but thanks to yeeez, I have got some great recommendations.
I am a bit disapointed ofcourse but there are people alot worse off than me.
Thanks again.
