never heard of them, actually, and I've been having to deal with it since i met my husband- it seems to run in his family (all three kids, dad, aunt, great aunt have it)

his seems to like:
being kept out of the light, the cold, the wind
cucumber slices
nicole miller's moustiruzing mask (am thinking about trying to copy it- it's got so much strawberry pulp in it it has seeds)
Yves Rocher bio-camille line.
thankfully, he's not a tanner, or a drinker.

If you go to the Skinstore site ( no connection to me other than I have ordered from them) and use Rosacea as condition, you will get a litst of products with real customer reviews about whether the products worked or not. Maybe this will be useful. I don't have rosacea, but my dad does.

Here is a link that might be useful: rosacea product reviews

There is a great group for rosaceans on yahoo -

http://rosacea.ii.net

From those folks I found out about a topical treatment, rosacea ltd, that helped my condition immensely. Folks there have tried all sorts of products, and can advise what products to avoid as well. There is a lot of info to wade through, but I'd recommend them for often symptoms get worse as time goes on.
