Finding the right products that are gentle enough and not irritating for such reactive skin can be a long, frustrating journey through trial and error.
Because I have gone through all of this myself, I decided that a great way to offer help, for us sensitive skin and rosacea types, was to create a series of helpful Skin Care Guides to help take some of the guess-work out of finding the right products and at least give you a proven sensitive skin care routine as a great place to start.
I hope so much these resources can be a huge help for you and your rosacea and/or sensitive skin!
First up, the best skin care routine I have found to support my sensitive rosacea-prone skin:

Ocular Rosacea Eye Care Guide: Soothing Tips & Remedies for Ocular Rosacea -Instant Digital Download
Rosacea doesn't only affect the skin, it can also affect our eyes, causing symptoms like itching, burning, redness and dryness. Ocular Rosacea can also make it particularly challenging to wear contact lenses.
I have dealt with dry eye issues (and contact lens related discomfort) related to Ocular Rosacea, for years. It wasn't until I met with my Ophthalmologist on a regular basis and started to put the tips and remedies he suggested into regular practice, that my dry eye symptoms began to ease. His suggestions have helped me so much that I wanted to share them with you and I hope you find them helpful for you as well!
Our Soothing Tips & Remedies for Ocular Rosacea Digital Guide is another helpful resource for those with Rosacea to find relief from dry eye and other eye-related symptoms, as recommended by my Ophthalmologist.
