What can you do to manage rosacea at home? See CAPTION below for further advice and product recommendations. KEY SIGNS: ⚡️FLUSHING: triggers can include stress, gut health, over-use of actives and UV exposure, specific foods and drinks, eg. alcohol and coffee, amongst others ⚡️BUMPS & PIMPLES: whereas you tend to find black and white heads in ACNE, the papules in rosacea tend to be firm and are often on the mid cheek. The pustules are often very superficial but not always. Again mid-cheeks is a common site ⚡️STINGING from skincare may be a sign your skin barrier is disrupted TIPS TO SELF-HEAL: ⚡️CLEANSING: We 💙 @CeraVe's hydrating & @cetaphiluk's gentle cleansers, and @larocheposay (LRP)'s Toleriane Dermo-cleanser ⚡️LAYERING of products is key to lock in moisture and STRENGTHEN your skin barrier. ⚡️ANTI-OXIDANT: although Vitamin C treatments can be too strong for severe rosacea, start at 10% and build up concentration over time. It will help protect against LIGHT – a common rosacea trigger. We 💙 @skinceuticals CE Ferulic & LRP’s Vitamin C serum ⚡️HYALURONIC ACID: boosts hydration. Try LRP’s Hyalu B5; @paulaschoice Hyaluronic Acid Booster or the @deciem Multi-Molecular Hyaluronic Complex ⚡️MOISTURISER: for rosacea-prone skin, we 💙 the Toleriane range by LRP, including their Dermallergo Soothing Moisturiser; also @Avene_uki's Anti-Rougeur Forte ⚡️SPF is key, as exposure to UV is known to aggravate rosacea: try LRP's Anthelios XL 50 + and Avene's Mineral Factor 50 for very sensitive skin This post was originally inspired by my chat with @trinnywoodall at the beginning of the year.
