As mentioned above, I use ZZ at night. If you don't get dry skin, then maybe try the ZZ at night only. See how you go.

Thanks Mikey. Nobody wants their ugly shots put up for the world to see and I avoided cameras for a long time. When I got a digital camera, I decided to try and document my Rosacea ups and downs with photos. It was supposed to only be for my own evaluation. However, being that I am part of the on-li...

I've posted these pics in the Rosacea Forum but thought I would share here too, as it's relevant. I started using ZZ nightly on 23 August 2006. Had some dreadful breakouts but now seem to be on the up and up! Yeay! I have had Rosacea since around early 2001 or so, maybe earlier. It's hard to know wh...

Hi Wrene Very happy to hear that things are clearing up for you with ZZ after just 2 weeks of use. I love to hear of positive results. My face is oily prone, mostly the T-Zone. I've been using ZZ at night since August, washing with Acarid Soap before applying ZZ to a damp face. In the morning I wash...

Interesting that this has been bumped. MightyMite e-mailed me on Monday about using BB along with ZZ and is having great results. I'll let you tell the story MM! I'm due to reply to your e-mail MM but thought I would mention here, the conversation I had with my Pharmacist today. I knew BB rangs bell...

It's really up to you Keving. Sounds like a good plan though. The only downside I see in not putting anything on your face during the day, is that your face might get quite dry. I use ZZ at night and in the morning I gently massage a few drops of Rose Hip Oil onto a damp face to keep it moisturised....

Well, that's what I mean. You wouldn't be able to tell which one is helping the most (or least) if you started using them all at the same time. Maybe you could cut one out of your routine and see if there is any improvement/worsening. Then cut another one out etc. Then re-introduce them again, one a...

Hi Keving I don't know the answers to your questions but I wondered if you tried one thing at a time or did you start with the Acarid Soap, ZZ, XMFL and shampoo all at once? Perhaps one of them is not for you? Just a thought. I haven't tried the XMFL but maybe it can be applied to a damp face, like ...

Hi Andy

Great to hear that things have started out well for you with the ZZ. Please do keep up-dating as I really hope that this will be the one for you!

Take care

Great to hear positive feedback with the ZZ. I'm still going well with it at around 14/15 weeks. I hate counting weeks! LOL I started on 23rd August 2006. I love that the p&p's have been greatly reduced, as that's what I really wanted from the ZZ. So, it's serving it's purpose. Look forward to y...

So great to hear Annabellab!

I do so hope this continues to work for you. It's great to hear positive feedback. Please do keep up-dating - good or bad. Sometimes there may be bad patches but we want to hear about them too. Hopefully it will be all smooth sailing for you though.

like the thin red lines that occurred when the mites were affecting my skin without me treating it.. u know.. alot of people talk bout them in their stories. like..before i had this problem with my face..these red lines weren't on my nose..now i can't seem to get rid of them. Hi pears103 I may be w...

Jen have you had any other break out at all lately? Ive just had another the past 3 days, just wondered about you too. We are so close to the start time. taamara Hi Tamara Well, I am happy to say that I got through the PMS stage this month without a breakout! Yeay! However, just after that time of ...

Hi Ryan I am no expert with the ZZ ointment but it does make my skin dry and flake...moreso in the beginning though. I apply it to my whole face but learnt that I need to avoid the eye area, or anywhere close to the eyes. My eye lids, even from the ZZ being close to the outsides, got extremely dry. ...

Hi Ryan I have replied in your thread on the Rosacea Forum already but thought I would reply here too. I would suggest that you have both...like me. The theory that Demodex Mites causes Rosacea has been a bit of a contentitious issue for some time now but those who try anti-mite treatment (especiall...
