If you suffer from Rosacea or if you have questions about Rosacea Skin Care, please read my story…
Just when I would think I had it under control, the redness came back again — and again. After everything seemed to calm down and my skin finally recovered from a flare-up, I still had that “extra pink” color on my face. I tried to convince myself that it didn’t look so bad… I was fooling myself.
For some, this cycle becomes so frustrating that they “curse the mirror” and pray for some sort of miracle. I’ve tried various treatments over the years to try and control my Rosacea. My dermatologist thought I was questioning his credentials when I asked why nothing he offered was working. Finally, I just accepted my condition and did my best not to trigger flare-ups. That’s all I could do.
Finally, after years of just accepting it, I decided to do my own research online. I found eight different Rosacea products being sold and several home remedies. After almost a year, I found a treatment that cleared my Rosacea completely. Here are three worth mentioning:
B. KAMINS
MY RATING: 9/10
This is one of the first products I tried. When I first started, it seemed to sting or tingle. I didn’t like that because it felt like I was going to flare up again. After a week or so I did notice some marked improveement. That made me extremely happy because at that point I knew there was something I could do about my condition. I kept using it, but it never seemed to clear my face beyond a certain point. B. KAMINS INFO
DERMA DOCTOR
MY RATING: 8/10
This cream works well, but doesn’t seem to penetrate like I expected. The price was a little steep. The feeling of a relaxed skin was nice, but it never felt like my Rosacea symptoms would completely go away. It always left a sort of oily feeling on my face. It could be different for others, but I put this at #3 (see summary below) because it really was overly priced and compared to ZenMed it didn’t give me that instant relief and clearing of redness.

ZENMED
MY RATING: 10/10
The treatment worked right away to tone my flare ups. By the second day I KNEW it was working. After the first week my face was clear. It was amazing because at that point I realized that I had, over time, come to accept my face to be a certain way. I realized I’d been looking at myself through a “lens” all these years. I’m extremely thankful I found ZenMed. If you’re tired of trying this and that solution, go with ZenMed first. ZENMED INFO SITE
SUMMARY OF BEST TREATMENT OPTIONS
#1 ZENMED – Works well to reduce flareups immediately and promotes deep healing.
#2 B. KAMINS – After a week I saw improvement, but not like ZenMed. Flare-ups returned.
#3 DERMA DOCTOR – Didn’t work, but soothed skin like a good lotion. Face stayed oily.
MY CONCLUSION
Other products I tried (these 3 were just the best) were helpful to a degree (some were completely unhelpful) but the results of ZenMed were unmatched. I haven’t had a flare-up since I started using it over three months ago, so I consider my condition “cured”, but I continue using ZenMed to be sure.
I wish you the best in your struggle and hope you don’t give up seeking a rosacea treatment.

Your skin looks great. I also have rosacea and possibly must have some skin sensitivities on top of that because I felt like alot of surface oriented skincare products either had little or worse effect on me. I tried Kamins and Dermadoctor and they seemed to have little effect for me.
What finally worked for me was addressing my insides. My rosacea showed serious improvement after I improved my diet, got on a serious vitamin routine and also after my doctor (who is an MD but practices in Chinese and homeopathic meds) started addressing the pH balance in my system. I don’t see alot of rosacea information out there that addresses internal causes. Probably because there is not a magic pill you can take to make you have a healthier lifestyle.
