My face needs help!

[SolidHair]

Wise Mumsnetters, please help me! My face is depressing me. Around my nose and chin I have the oily skin of a teenager, I have a big red nose like an old man, and my cheeks and forehead are like a Weetabix! I’m 44 years old, but look 64. Can anyone recommend a skin-correcting tinted moisturiser or miracle potion? I’m tired of scaring the children! I bow to your greater knowledge.

I wouldn’t say money’s no object, but I’m prepared to invest in a solution. Thanks for your suggestion, I’ll look into that!

Instead of trying to hide it you need to get to the root of it and sort it out! I'd second seeing a professional or at least get to a decent skin care brand and see a consultant who can help!

Good advice! Thank you.

Are you eating lots of healthy fats, greens, water, and antioxidants? Sunscreen daily and a good moisturizer (without irritants like fragrance or essential oils?)

You could try plasma facials. My friend has one called neogen but google and see if they are any good.

Is it Rosacea?

Certainly sounds like rosacea which will need medical intervention.

I am on lymecycline and mine improved dramatically within a couple of weeks. It can't be cured but it can be very successfully managed. I would make an appointment first before dropping a lot of money on facials and skincare.

La Roche posay effaclar 3 step might be your friend

My skin has always been spot prone still I started using LRP

Thanks all! Some really good suggestions here, and perhaps it is time for some soul-searching about my lifestyle in general. Many thanks again.
