Don't worry...you are suffering from seborrheic dermatitis causing this problem... Specific medicine available for good control... Treatment depends on the severity..Do direct online consultation for detailed prescription by sending photos.

Hi This could be perioral dermatitis. Look if there is something specific that you apply after which you get redness. Avoid heavy face creams , face scrub and  fluorinated tooth pastes.
Next Steps
consult a dermatologist with photographs.
Health Tips
use mild face cleansers.
