my final minimalist rosacea routine (after years of tinkering)

ok final form: gentle gel cleanser AM only (water rinse PM), azelaic acid 10%, ceramide moisturizer, mineral SPF 30+. that's it. that is the whole thing. dropped: vitamin C (too irritating), niacinamide (fine but unnecessary for me), retinol (not worth the trigger). skin is the calmest it's been in a decade. sometimes the answer is fewer products.
