I would suggest letting your skin rest for two days. That means

washing once or twice a day with tepid water and a gentle soap or

just water only. Do not exfoliate! I repeat, DO NOT EXFOLIATE.

This means no rubbing, scrubbing with a washclothe, hands or towel.

Put lotion on after washing. My skin is very sensitive. So, I use

Neutregena Swiss formula hand cream mixed with pure aloe vera gel. I

just put a pea size amount of each in my palm and mix. It goes in

well and doesn't feel greasy. It definately does not sting or burn

and make me go red.

Just let your flakes build up. Your face may be snowing by day two.

Mine was. But on Monday, when I washed my face in tepid water, I did

exfoliate my skin with a soft wash cloth.

It seemed as if my skin had a chance to heal. Those places that

would flake off and leave red raw patches were calmer and my overall

skin texture was improved.

I used to buy into the " exfoliation is bad for rosacea " theory.

Even after 4 lasers my face was still a mess. I now rinse my face in

the shower for a few seconds, get out, wet triple sized cotton balls,

and rub my cheeks and forehead with them... never using soap. People

comment how much better my face looks now. Flakiness is gone, acne

is no longer a biggie, and rosacea is almost a thing of the past.
