Identity of Acne Rosacea:
Rosacea must imperatively be diagnosed by a dermatologist. It is indeed too often confused with perioral dermatitis, or acne or rosacea most commonly. Check and make sure (s) to know what you have before you rush to treatment.
- Who is affected: particularly women with light skin between 40 and 50 years. But everyone is potentially concerned.
- Symptoms: redness on the central face, swelling, tingling or burning sensation, then leading to a possible seborrhea (too much sebum) and buttons.
- Mechanisms: circulatory abnormalities of the small vessels of the face, non-infectious, non-contagious, but very inflammatory.
- What really helps: protective lifestyle and gentle care, possibly with essential oils to control developments.
Dermo-cosmetics for rosacea
The choice of products is crucial for reactive skin with rosacea. Often the symptoms of rosacea give the impression of developing allergies to cosmetics, with burning or itching.
The rich moisturizers that should relieve dry, sensitive skin instead give the sensation of increasing burns. Better to focus very simple in ingredients to optimize their tolerance. Every day you have to clean the skin and moisturize.
1) First, clean
Banish lotions or alcohol gels, soaps or scented products, as they are potentially irritating.
Remove make-up if necessary to the apricot kernel oil or jojoba (see cleansingoil: oil soak a sponge wrung out and remove makeup residue).
Find a cleansing oil slow here.
Then clean with a gel or bread without washing soap certified organic. There are no organic soap gels baby radius bio stores.Ideally, never soap on skin that suffers from acne or rosacea, to keep the good acidic pH.
After cleaning, spray the mandatory hydrosol cistus, of chamomile, lavender or of witch hazel. You can also switch gently hydrolat cotton. Leave on for 1 minute, then dry with a tissue. If the crisis is severe, use compresses soaked hydrolat to apply on the skin for an instant.
Find a face hydrolat slow here.
Notes:
- Vaporizing cited hydrosols can be repeated 2 to 3 times per day in case of flush ("redness puff") also.
2) Next, moisturize and protect
Forget the conventional cosmetic too occlusive (based on silicones, petroleum oils or fatty alcohols), they increase the sensation of heat.
Try a preparation as described below. You gently masserez on areas reddened before applying so completely optional, but your light protective bio cream (style Réaprotect Realia or the cream with chamomile Saint Hilaire or my recipe moisturizer universal - click)
Processing, either during at least one month, apply 3-5 drops of the serum large morning and evening on the marked, so only locally, and massage gently until absorbed. Do not panic, this serum feels strong but the smell will fade. You can apply your day cream or night over then.

Rosacea: The tricks and more!
- You plan outdoor activities? It is imperative then use your protective day cream over serum.
- In winter, or during periods of high winds, shea butter is very protective and it has a small anti-inflammatory effect. To apply, draw a small amount (pea) with hand, rub hands together to warm and soften it, and then apply to face. The greasy appearance fades in about ten minutes because it penetrates deeply. You can apply only to cleansed skin, or over your skin care serum. I recommend a butter Shea cosmetic slow (click).
- You are really too fat care serum? You do not have cream? Then the aloe vera gel purewill help you. It is slightly anti-inflammatory and healing, it is indicated to calm redness.Apply a small amount of gel in hand before adding your care of 3-5 drops of serum and emulsify before massaging the face. It is done ! I recommend the aloe vera gel Bioflore.
