Shisheido (already mentioned) makes a great sunscreen. Personally I am partial to Bioré, they are a Japanese sunscreen, easily found on Amazon. Their Aqua Rich sunscreen covers both UVA/UVB and is PA++++ which is the highest measurement of UV protection (scale developed in Japan). It also helps that absorbs quickly and doesn’t run and sting your eyes, even when doing exercise.
Until we make our own, that’s what I recommend
How do I know if my skin is "dull" or has "texture" issues? I basically look like I'm just a notch above Steve Bannon skin if that helps. When I look at skin products I get overwhelmed.
Two things:
1. what would you recommend to someone who has frequent rosacea outbreaks on their cheek area?
2. looks like the STYLEFORUM code you mentioned in your original post isn’t working.

Hey my main man,
I’ve re-enabled the STYLEFORUM discount code. Sorry about that, it had automatically expired, it should now never expire.
Skin with Rosacea is very sensitive. That means you should be trying to avoid skincare products with drying ingredients, alcohol, or contain any potential irritants.
The good news is that we never formulate with those. I’d also recommend you to check your current routine to see if you are using something that could potentially irritate your skin (feel free to PM me or post here, I’ll check it out).
For Rosacea prone skin, you’ll want to keep it hydrated with a formula that includes natural anti inflammatories. Our “The Hydrator” serum has green tea extract, aloe vera, and centella asiatica all of which have been proven to help calm skin.
It would also be important to protect your skin from environmental degradation like sun or pollution by using an antioxidant (like Vitamin C). The added benefit of vitamin C is that it evens out skin tone and helps brighten your skin. Ours is formulated so simply that I think it would really work well for you and your skin.
We bundle those two together as they are our most popular items. It’s called the glowing duo and is available here. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Sorry again about the Styleforum discount code! It’s all sorted now
appreciate the response! I just placed an order for the glowing duo. I’m excited to try it.
Because of the rosacea, my skincare routine is constantly changing. It’s basically some combo of these products:
Cerave hydrating facial cleanser
Liquid Neutrogena cleanser
Cerave moisturizer
Rosehip oil
Jojoba oil
Boscia deep hydrating sleep mask (this stuff is magical)
Belif Hungarian water essence
@Overt - Any recommendation for anti aging like fine lines, sun protection, evening skin tone and brightening. Would that be glowing duo that I should order ? Or a Trio package ?
What would you recommend to do for a daily skin routine. What’s the size of the products mentioned on your website and how long does it last if someone uses it daily.
Edit: For sunscreen I saw you mentioned Biore and the reviews on Amazon for 2019 version of the product is not good. Not sure if I should go for Shiesdo sunscreen then.
Thank you for all the helpful information.Hey Saurabh!
Thanks for the question. I feel like a lot of us are at the stage where anti-aging is coming into play along with wanting to keep our skin moisturized, bright and even. So in terms of what you should be doing going forward. I would really recommend adding in some extra moisturizing serum, to help your skin retain all the moisture you lose throughout the day, and a gentle protectant that would build up your skins natural protection barrier to combat environmental damage, like sun, pollution, etc.
This duo has both of the serums that would benefit you by adding moisture and more importantly building up a protective barrier as skin gets thinner and weaker as it ages. Moisture is a key aspect to preventing skin aging. Dry skin ages and wrinkles more easily, so this would help prevent that by locking in all that moisture you lose throughout the day.
I’d also recommend alternating in a bit of Vitamin C to help the uneven tone, Vitamin C has been shown in literally hundreds of studies to help even and brighten skintone. This combination of three products will really help future proof your skin, and give it an attractive, healthy glow. So the above duo, plus The Brightener.
So your routine would look like this:
AM: Cleanser, The Hydrator Serum (3-5 drops spread across face, forehead and neck area), let it absorb (1 minute) The Brightener Vitamin C Serum (3-5 drops spread across face, forehead and neck area, let it absorb, 1 minute), Moisturizer, Sunscreen
PM: Cleanser, The Restorer Serum (3-5 drops spread across face, forehead and neck area), Moisturizer.
In terms of size, we only have one, that is 30 mL or 1 fl oz. Perfect for traveling with but concentrated enough that 3-5 daily drops will make the bottle last two months.
Re. Biore, I have never had a bad experience, that said, sometimes people sell older versions or even bad dupes on Amazon (for most imported products, not just Biore). Shiseido is a really good sunscreen as well! Honestly the important thing is that you are applying sunscreen.
Excellent choice. I think your skin will be extremely pleased with them! Thanks so much for your early support. I look forward to hearing how much you love them. Any other questions, please reach out!Thank you for all the helpful information.
I have placed order for Anti-aging duo and the Glowing duo.

You are going to love it! So excited you placed an order.
Honestly your routine looks pretty good. The only thing I’d add is an AM sunscreen, a few posts ago I talked about Bioré, which makes really solid and reasonably priced sunscreen in Japan. Is the Rosehip cold pressed?
Cheers,
Rory
I don’t think it’s cold pressed. At least it doesn’t say on the packaging. It’s the Nourish Organic Rose Hip Oil Mist. Does the cold pressed aspect make a big difference?
I’ve been getting into skincare a lot lately So this thread is super interesting. I had totally normal skin with very few acne breakouts even in high school. Developed rosacea in my early 30s and have spent the last 5 years or so trying to figure out how to manage it. The rosacea has cause other random dry spots and acne outbreaks. My wife has had sensitive skin and acne issues most of her life so I’ve been able to reap the benefits of her trips to Sephora for new products. She gets home and I’m like “pop that bag open. Lemme try some.”
