5 Ways To Soothe Rosacea

rosacea

It doesn’t matter whether you’re a super model or super mum, anyone can be affected by rosacea. So what’s this mysterious skin condition that we hear about but so often is kept hidden by make-up?

We tend to think of rosacea as patchy redness that spreads across the face. That’s only the mild version though. In reality, this is a long-term skin condition that can result in redness, pimples, swelling, itchiness, sensitivity, and even small, superficial blood vessels. It tends to affect the nose, cheeks, forehead, and chin and in severe cases it can even lead to thickening of the skin on the nose, typically giving a bulbous appearance. 

The true cause of rosacea still remains unknown, but genetics may well play a part. It’s also thought that certain triggers can exacerbate the condition including heat, exercise, sunshine, spicy food, alcohol, and hormonal changes like the menopause. 

Whilst it might not be life threatening, that’s still small comfort to those that suffer from this distressing and often misunderstood skin condition. Fortunately, with the right skincare, symptoms can be improved and managed.

Obagi Products 

This ground-breaking brand’s mission has always been to create clinically proven skincare products that transform skin from within, correcting and preventing damage. 

The efficacy of Obagi skincare products can be attributed to the highly effective, transformative ingredients that are used and of course, their clever formulation. The Obagi Research and Development Team continuously seek out, test, and analyse ingredients to find the most efficacious ones. Once an ingredient has passed initial testing, it goes on to be clinically tested on all Fitzpatrick skin types. 

Designed to address a myriad of skincare concerns, Obagi products produce younger, healthier skin which translates into a more confident you. So, there’s no surprises that this progressive skincare brand is leading the way when it comes to tackling rosacea.

5 Obagi Products to Soothe Rosacea

If your skin feels sensitive in any way, you’re sure to want to use a gentle cleanser. We recommend Obagi Nu-Derm Fx® Gentle Cleanser for anyone suffering from rosacea, or that has dry, sensitive skin. Natural soothing and calming ingredients include Oat Amino Acids, Aloe, Apricot Kernel Oil, Panthenol, Sage Leaf Extract and Borago Officinalis Extract, plus Glycerin another re-known soother that’s great for hydrating the skin.

Ideal for rosacea sufferers, Obagi Professional-C® Serum 10% is a powerful, transformative serum that has been specifically formulated for sensitive, dry, or irritated skin. Although it’s incredibly gentle, you’ll notice that it’s a rich, nourishing concentration that contains the all-important 10% L-ascorbic Acid. This formula immediately penetrates the skin, to provide amazingly strong antioxidant protection and the signature instant radiance, for which vitamin C is famed!

Another common complaint of Rosacea is dry, irritated skin. That’s never the case with Obagi Hydrate®. That’s because this exceptional daily moisturiser has received more accolades than we’ve had hot dinners!  Hypoallergenic, non-irritating, and suitable for all skin types, it’s undeniably a product that we should all be using.

Hydromanil™ is the key to clinically proven longer-lasting hydration. These molecules, derived from Tara Seed, form a matrix across the skin’s surface. This enables them to remain on the cells for longer, continuously delivering nourishment from active compounds for up to eight hours.

Of course, it’s never just about a single ingredient. There are lots of other lovely, enriching, and natural ingredients featured in this hero hydrator. Luxurious Shea Butter, Mango Butter and Avocado Oil add even more sustenance to this rich but amazingly non-greasy ultimate daily moisturiser.

It’s so vital to keep the eye area nourished to combat dry skin, fine lines, and wrinkles and the same equally goes for those that suffer from rosacea, especially as it can cause dryness and irritation at times. Obagi ELASTIderm® Eye Cream is an innovative formulation that uses a revolutionary Bi-Mineral Contour Complex™ combining Copper and Zinc with Malonate. 

What’s special about this unique ingredient? Bi-Mineral Contour Complex™ has been designed by Obagi® to support the three necessary stages of developing healthy elastin: create, convert, and organise. It works quickly to reveal more resilient looking skin in as little as two weeks and with regular use, it also noticeably improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

It’s incredibly important to use an SPF if you suffer from rosacea since this type of skin can be more sensitive to the sun and it can exacerbate the condition. Obagi Sun Shield Matte SPF50 is a great choice that offers broad spectrum protection from both UVA and UVB rays. 

Once fully absorbed, skin is left with a sheer, matte finish, the perfect canvas for foundation or powder. So not only will your skin look fab, but you can enjoy your day fully confident that your skin is protected with the maximum factor 50 protection and that rosacea symptoms will be minimised, even if you are outside in the sunshine. Zinc Oxide is in there to deflect the UV rays, while Homosalate and Octisalate absorb and release damaging radiation. Future proof your skin by making SPF a skincare essential today.
