Mommy Emotes

I know pimples from the day I hit puberty. It was the most irritating thing that happened to me and the one that changed my face forever, leaving scars left, right, up and down! I dreaded my face until today. It’s a miracle that somehow life can go on with this kind of face! LOL!

Anyway, did you know that pimples also define the word rosacea? This is a chronic condition characterized by facial erythema (redness). According to Wikipedia, it “usually affects Caucasians of mainly northwestern European descent and has been nicknamed the ‘curse of the Celts’ by some in Britain and Ireland, but can also affect people of other ethnicities.” So far, here in our place, I always here pimples rather than the word rosacea but in some countries I have read some blogs about rosacea treatment and prevention.

How about you? Have you heard about rosacea?
