Q Hi . I’m currently breastfeeding and experiencing acne rosacea flare ups on my cheeks . Never had rosacea before until after having kids . After I had my first it looked more like a dermatitis and mild . During my second pregnancy it got a bit worse and I thought it would subside after delivery a bit . It’s a little better but one cheek Is a bit worse than the other . I was wondering what do you recommend that’s safe to use while breastfeeding . Currently using dr bribers tea tree soap , rosehip and glycerin for moisturizer which I feel is not enough and just ordered rosehip oil since I heard does wonders for rosacea. Also , I was wondering if Skinceuticals phyto corrective gel is safe to use while breastfeeding. have used it in the past pre children and it did wonders for my skin . Thank you for your help !!!

Thank you for reaching out to us. I would recommend the brand Eminence their Calm Skin Starter Set, this is a nice way to get introduced to the brand ,from there you can purchase in the larger sizes. I would add the Stone Crop Hydrating Mist to apply after you have cleansed. I would definitely print out the ingredients and take it to your OB just to be on the safe side. HHope this helps, have a nice day !Thank you for making Dermstore your #1 source for all things beauty! Cyndee RDermstore Esthetician
