Even if you’re already treating your rosacea, the right skin care can make a noticeable difference.
A rosacea friendly skin care routine can:
To help patients who have rosacea with skin care, dermatologists offer these tips:
1- Cleanse your face twice a day — very gently.
People who have rosacea often don’t wash rosacea-prone skin enough. That’s understandable if your skin already feels irritated.
Cleansing when you wake up and before you go to bed helps remove oil and dirt that can irritate your skin.
To cleanse without further irritating your skin, dermatologists recommend that you:
Collagen Wash Gel
Collagen Washing Gel is a product that facilitates skin cleansing by removing all pollution that has accumulated on the skin.
2- Moisturize every day.
Studies show that applying a rosacea friendly moisturizer or barrier repair cream can also improve the results you see from treatment.
In one small study, patients applied a rosacea treatment (metronidazole gel) to their face twice a day. They also applied a gentle, non-irritating moisturizing cream twice a day to one side of their face.
After 15 days, the moisturized side of their face had less dryness, peeling, and roughness. It also felt more comfortable. Other studies have found similar results.
3- Protect your skin from the sun year round.
The sun can worsen rosacea. This is so common that it’s actually one of the most frequent causes of a rosacea flare-up. Even people with dark skin can have a rosacea flare-up after being outdoors in the sun.
To reduce rosacea flare-ups caused by the sun, dermatologists recommend wearing sunscreen. To protect your skin, apply a sunscreen to your face every day before going outdoors. Even on cloudy days, it helps to apply sunscreen.
Finding a sunscreen that won’t irritate your sensitive skin can be a challenge. Dermatologists recommend that you look for a sunscreen with:
Sun Supreme
Born from photobiological molecular research, this ultra lightweight cream has the power to transform the skin’s natural properties into a true broad spectrum (UVA/UVB/IR) photoprotective shield.
4- Choose rosacea friendly skin care products.
When you have rosacea, many skin care products and cosmetics can irritate your skin. While gentle cleansing, moisturizing, and sun protection can help reduce this sensitivity, you also want to choose your skin care products and makeup carefully.
When shopping for products, dermatologists recommend that you read the list of ingredients before you buy. To reduce the likelihood of a buying a product that will irritate your skin, you want to avoid anything that contains: Alcohol, Camphor, Fragrance, Glycolic acid, Lactic acid, Menthol, Sodium laurel sulfate (often found in shampoos and toothpaste) and Urea.To reduce the chance of a product irritating your skin, choose fragrance-free (rather than unscented) products.
SOS Reactive
S.O.S. Reactive is an intensive and long-lasting treatment that actively relieves hypersensitivity in reactive skins.
5 - Test skin care products and makeup before applying them to your face.
If you’ve never tried a product or it seems that everything you apply to your face stings, testing can help. To test a product, dab a small amount near (but not on) your rosacea-prone skin. If it irritates your skin (burning, stinging, etc.) within 72 hours, you know not to use it.
6- Be gentle with your skin.
Anything that irritates your skin can worsen rosacea. To prevent this, you want to avoid rubbing or scrubbing your face. That means no washcloths, facial sponges, or exfoliating.
Making these tips a part of your skin care routine can help you take better care of your rosacea-prone skin.
If you have trouble finding skin care products or makeup that doesn’t irritate your skin, a dermatologist can assist you. A dermatologist can examine your skin and recommend products for your skin’s specific needs.
