Cleared my FA - hopefully this helps!
I have been struggling with what I suspected was Rosacea type 2 or hormonal acne. Until I started treating it as FA. I hope this post might help those in a similar boat. This is just what worked for me and may not work for you but ofc I’d love to share.
I am on week 2 now of applying clotrimazole 1% morning and night only (without moisturiser) and washing my face with the Bioderma Micellar water morning and night. I don’t wear makeup during the day so this cleanser is gentle enough without irritating my skin. I also apply a sulphur wash 1 x a week.
The first image is my skin at its worst, and the last is my skin just this morning.
I still have little pustules that form here and there but not to the extent I was initially experiencing. My skin texture has softened and feels a lot smoother rather than rough. Once it fully clears I will move onto a FA moisturiser (still looking for one)
