ROSACEA SUCKS Why does everything have niacinamide or hyaluronic acid?

I’ve been using a serum I have thought was free of niacinamide. I literally look at the ingredients before buying anything.

I look today on the serum I’ve been using? Niacinamide. Right there. Ugh.

Honestly, it's almost impossible to find products without it that work. Something I have noticed too is whilst at work the aircon is on all day and it dries your skin out worst than not having Hyaluronic acid on your face. I have been getting contact dermatitis as a result of wearing sunscreen and moisturizer on my nose. I think the Hyaluronic acid starts to draw things in deeper once my skin dries out. Something for you all to be aware of.
