Testing if mineral sunscreen or chemical sunscreen is for you. Testing if salicylic acid is epic or horrendous for you. Testing what types of lasers are for you, if any. Testing barrier repairing serums to see if they repair or cause further breakdown. I wish rosacea was a one size fits all, but it’s not 💔

Treat acne with acupuncture?
Bonus- patients fall asleep quickly

Treating rosacea?
Bonus- patients wake up refreshed

Needling for a gentle facelift?
Bonus- patients not waking up throughout the night

Acupuncture does EVERYTHING for sleep, even if your sleep isn’t directly being treated.

The reason I’m always crapping on and on about sunscreen and skincare and retinol and moisturisers is because I only see you once a week for acupuncture and maybe laser. For an hour. Ish. Then you go home and it’s another 167 hours until I see you again. What you do in those 167 hours MATTERS, like really, truly, matters. So it’s not actually 80:20, it’s 167:1

I love me some ear tacks and seeds! Anxiety, sleep, spasticity, stress… everyone loves them!

Sometimes it’s 10… sometimes it’s 50! I think the highest number of needles I’ve ever used in a patient was 60 needles; it was for treatment to make a long scar disappear 💥

For every person who exclusively uses mineral sunscreen to keep their reactive eyes in check, there’s another 20 who use chemical sunscreen for the same reason. There’s no reason to demonise chemical sunscreen and if your mineral one isn’t cutting it… try a chemical one

Things to try if you have sensitive, teary eyes:

1- make your entire skincare routine fragrance free… sometimes this is actually all you need to do! I actually used to think my eyes were super sensitive and reactive and they teared up so easily, but as soon as I moved completely to a fragrance free routine from beginning to end - my eyes no longer react in any way to anything.

2- test if your eyes respond better to chemical or mineral sunscreens. There’s no way of knowing which one is less irritating for your eyes until you try and everyone is different. I have a free list of sunscreens I recommend in my profile- chemical and mineral. The LRP anthelios one is the best for stinging eyes!

3- if you use retinol at night, avoid the delicate skin around your eye area as we don’t want that skin compromised at all.

4- choose pressed powders over loose powders

Please don’t use essential oils on your face- my last patient who was using this type of roll on bottle of essential oils on her temples and neck for migraines went on to develop PIH or post inflammatory hyperpigmentation - she now has 4 areas - 2 on her temples and 2 on either side of her neck- of brown hyperpigmentation that is going to take quite a while to shift with treatment and skincare.

Fragrance is a rosacea NIGHTMARE.

Fragrance for anyone without rosacea is a common contact allergen, but if you do have rosacea the chance of it being a contact allergen goes through the roof. (Fragrance includes essential oils. Including ‘pure’ essential oils)

Some essential oil fragrances also have a thermal effect on the skin- this causes vasodilation of the blood vessels - causing further rosacea flare ups.

Menstrual cups and discs are the dream for patients with heavy flows - they can hold so much more than a super tampon and they don’t need to be changed anywhere near as frequently 💕

Melasma and rosacea share three huge triggers - UV, heat, and stress.

Rosacea also has wind, alcohol, and spicy foods as triggers for most patients, while melasma also has a hormonal and drug trigger.

Both conditions are lifelong once you have them - although they can definitely calm down and flare up over time- there’s a lot of up and down with both of these skin concerns!

Calming down flare ups with an epic skin care routine is doable, and I also have skin clinics that I refer patients to for other treatments from dermal clinicians 💕

The one that doesn’t irritate your skin. The one that doesn’t leave a white cast. The one that goes on well under makeup. The one that is affordable. The one that doesn’t cause break outs. The one that doesn’t stink. The one that has skin nourishing ingredients.

Head to the link in my bio and download my free sunscreen picks for summer 2025 - it includes both chemical and mineral options available in Australia and DOESN’T include any products from sunscreengate 😂
