>Looking for dry skin remedy
Hi all, I'm new to the forum and very impressed already with all the useful information and tips. I'm a 25 year old male from Sussex. I was wondering whether anyone could give me some advice with a skin condition I have had for the last few years. I won't go into too much detail because I would end up going on and on but I will give you a nutshell version. I took a medication for acne called roaccutane at the end of 2003 and became paranoid about a possible side effect "may increase sun damage". I did not have any sun damage but did not want any either and became a recluse from the sunlight. I stopped taking the medication but the stress of it all caused me some dry skin on my nose and the more I worried about it the worse it got (the converse being that when I relax it goes away). Here I am 4 years later in the same position.

Rosacea can be embarrassing and uncomfortable. It can appear in your 30s and worsens with age but can be controlled. Having rosy cheeks is sometimes considered a sign of robust health or of an active, outdoor lifestyle. For reasons such as these, for centuries women have used rouge or blush to artificially heighten the colour in their faces. Unfortunately, for sufferers of rosacea, facial ruddiness is not something they can wash off with just a swipe of make-up remover. With rosacea, in addition to the appearance of permanent flushing there may also be enlargement of surface blood vessels, yellow-headed pimples and even swelling and permanent deformity of the nose. Rosacea tends to appear between the ages of 30 and 50, and worsens with age.

A lot of us suffer some skin condition or ailment especially during puberty, and one of these irritating skin disorders is acne. Acne refers to the plugged pores (blackheads and whiteheads), pimples, and even deep lumps like cysts or nodules, that affect the face, neck, chest, back, shoulders and sometimes the upper arms.
This skin disorder affects most teenagers to some extent. The ailment however, is not simply restricted to any age group; as adults in their 20s, even into their 40s, can also get this.
