As title suggests, over the last few months I’ve noticed my face is very red and lots of bumps that weren’t there before. Also very sensitive, warm to touch. Posted before picture for reference. I thought my skin barrier was just damaged from sun exposure.

I stopped most of my previous skin care to see if that’s what it was. Now use just cerave hydrating face wash which my face loves and avene cicaplast which doesn’t seem to be helping.

I never clued in that I might now have rosacea until family doctor mentioned it before referring me to dermatologist which takes 3-5 months to see in Canada.
