Thought I had rosacea for 2 years. Turns out it was just my moisturizer.

I finally figured this out 3 days ago after just randomly deciding to stop using my regular cream for a week. My skin is totally calm now and I feel like I wasted so much time and money on fancy serums. Anyone else had a product just quietly wreck your face for months?

Stop using anything with fragrance or essential oils first, that's what got me. I switched to plain Vanicream and my face stopped looking like a tomato in like 4 days.

Vanicream is fine but people act like one scented candle is going to melt your face off. @king.jordan maybe your skin is just sensitive to fragrance, that doesn't mean everyone's is. Not everyone has to live in a bubble of unscented everything. Some of us can handle a little lavender or whatever without turning into a tomato. If it worked for you, cool, but it's not some universal fix.
