I need help/recommendations

Hello, M30. My skin has always been terrible since i’ve been wrongly diagnosed with eczema and put on topical steroids for 7 years. I would use them 3x/week and they completely destroyed me and my skin. Fortunately a few years back i went to a different dermatologist and she told me it was actually rosacea, put me on protopic to counteract the TSW and ease the inflammation, and since then i tried almost everything for rosacea, metro, doxy, soolantra, azelaic acid and so on. As you can see, despise being low bodyfat and physically active, my cheeks and overall face are always and i mean ALWAYS swollen. but swollen in what looks and feels like an ‘inflamatory’ way. i can’t understand why. On too of that i also have a lot of vascularity due to topical steroids abuse.

I need some help and guidance from people in a similar situation, what could i use/do to improve my situation?

Thanks!

Best mineral sunscreen for rosacea w/ a very very sensitive skin?

As the title says, i am looking to explore a few different mineral sunscreens brands, my skin has always loved the zinc but the current sunscreen i’m using is a bit too ‘heavy’, meaning it leaves a white cast very easily.

Maybe there are some good option with no active ingredients whatsoever besides the zinc that are actually lighter?
