ZincO & Desitin Diaper Rash Ointment

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

I've only been on the list for a week or two and already I've picked up

terrific tips to help my rosacea. THe first one was the ZincO By Dr.

Sy. This is working wonderful for me - very soothing and provides a nice

even coverage for my face during the day. The second one which had me

skeptical was the use of zinc oxide diaper rash lotion (!) I apply this at

night and let most of it soak in and blot the rest off before going to bed.

I use the new Desitin Creamy ointment it worked very well on my skin. In

fact, this has worked better in a short time than my minocycline and

metrocreme did in a months. I had no problem washing off the Desitin in the

morning actually most of it had been absorbed into the skin. - I used the

Oil of Olay Foaming Wash for Sensitive skin to wash it off also recommended

by someone on the list. I am thrilled by the affects of the zinc oxide with

my rosacea - who would've thought diaper rash ointment would work. The

bumps and redness have calmed down considerably and are barely noticable.

Flushing is still a problem and I am hoping to try photoderm someday.

Thank you all for the tips and keep them coming! Jan
