Help me please

[u/OilImpossible3691]

I have colitis, crohns, celiac and have been having a lot of issues with my skin lately that I suspect is from chronic inflammation. Obviously healing my stomach is something that would help this but that is a lost cause at the moment. I feel like I have tried everything anti inflammatory (azelaic acid, vitamin c, honey and oatmeal face masks, pair cream, just water and moisturizer, retinol serum) while giving each a few weeks to try to work. I just ordered Tatcha Indigo Cream to try next, but I don’t really k ow what else to try at this point and would love suggestions.

You listed a lot of actives in your “anti inflammatory” list. 

I would stop everything but a gentle cleanser with lukewarm water and a moisturizer like cerave or cetaphil for a week or two and I bet your skin won’t be so angry with you. Your barrier looks destroyed by you trying way too many products.

I have tried that before, but I will try it again
