How do you instantly calm rosacea?
Triggers or signs that can lead to getting rosacea
Rosacea can affect everyone differently because it is caused by different issues.
Causes and triggers:
- Hormonal changes
- Stress overload
- Anxiety
- Women usually have it from 30 to 40 years
- Food allergies
- Mite skin infection
- Alcohol
- Spicy foods
Sometimes it’s more than just redness on the face from enlarged blood vessels on the skin differently than other skin conditions because some forms have pus-filled bumps. Sometimes the condition is from chronic flushing of the face, and other more severe forms may need fungal creams or ointments to address swelling and inflammation. Many times antibiotics are needed for more severe forms of the condition.
Rosacea can be treated by a variety of different OTC creams, vitamin, mineral and herbal supplements, prescription orals and topical ointments as well as prevention tactics to help soothe the skin. Before you start with any of these prescriptions or OTC options to rid of rosacea, try a natural, healthier approach—try our HOCl PurClarity Revitalizing Mist.

Ways to calm rosacea and reduce risk of a flare
