Asked By:shelley_gardner in Australia, AU

I have been struggling with my skin my whole life but over the last year it has intensified immensely I have broken capillaries as well as redness primarily around my mouth and cheeks My skin is very dry and very reactive to heat and absolutely anything applied to it, it also burns and itches My family also has a history of rosacea and I flush very easily I'm waiting for my appointment with a dermatologist but any insight in the meantime would be appreciated
