The Lipstick Party

Do you know the name of one of the most common skin problems widespread throughout the globe? If this question were posed to fifty different people, it’d be surprising if a dozen of them got it right. The answer is rosacea.

Despite the high numbers of people effected here – about forty million people – rosacea tends to slip off the radar, not really being known or understood beyond those who have it. For those who do, they know what it’s like: the face gets red, blushed, inflamed. Acne-like pimples and bumps appear. Blood vessels surface to the face.

Rosacea predominately manifests in white women whose ancestry is traced back to Europe. However, it can be found in both men and women, both black and white people, and people of all ages, not just the bigger demographic of women ages 30 to 50. Scientists do not know what causes rosacea but there is evidence of a genetic disorder involved.  Read more...

Rosacea is a common skin problem that affects millions of people. It is not life threatening, but it can be an inconvenience. If you have noticed a redness that does not go away across your cheeks, nose and chin then you may have rosacea. Your doctor will be able to tell you for sure. Once you are diagnosed with rosacea you can begin to search for a rosacea natural treatment.

Your skin will reflect the state of your overall health. Therefore, if you are unhealthy on the inside your skin will look unhealthy. This is especially true for those who have rosacea. If you are a smoker then you can expect to have more rosacea flare ups than a non-smoker. If you eat a lot of greasy junk food then you can expect to battle rosacea frequently.

When you are looking for a rosacea natural treatment it is a good idea to start with what you put into your body. Cigarettes are full of chemicals that can cause rosacea symptoms to flare up and a whole lot of other problems. Decide now to start eating better by adding lots of fruits and vegetables to your diet. Cut back on your sugar intake and increase your water intake. You will be shocked at how much better your skin will look after these changes in your lifestyle.  Read more...
