    Hug Charyly. I know how you feel. I had horrible skin for the longest time... I recently bought some Nutrimetics range stuff that seems to be working. They have lots of different things for different skin conditions, so maybe you could give them a try. (Unfortunately they are kind of expensive, but hey, if it works....)

    Charly - it may be Rosacea:

    things like spicy food, coffee & alcohol make it worse. I've been drinking lemon juice, apple cidar vinegar & hot water every morning to try to control mine. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. I found only getting pg helped to clear it up. Drinking lots of water & putting cold packs on after exercise may also help. I'm also trying to go chemical free with skin care & makeup. I did see a dermatologist - she recommended Cetaphil (from the chemists). Healthy eating should help to clear it up too.
