Hey! So since filming this, within the last two months, I have been diagnosed with rosacea. I wanted to share how I’ve been treating it. This has removed my redness significantly. Whilst these products have been working for me, they may not have the same effect on you but I hope they will! 1) Azelaic Acid: this is usually given to people with rosacea but prescribed at 20%. Paula’s choice do a 10% Azelaic Acid booster that has haloed remove redness and seal with any spots. Within 2 weeks I’ve seen an obvious difference. 2) products that help repair the skin barrier. I’ve been using Krave’s GBR and it’s been helping loads. As well as Rovectin’s Barrier repair cream. 3) avoiding AHA/BHA and using PHA/ LHA instead. These are gentler versions of AHA and BHA and I get no irritation on my skin what so ever
When you were describing your redness I thought you might have Rosacea! I wasn’t going to comment but then I saw this. I have it too & your skin looks beautiful. I can’t seem to get mine that clear. I don’t flush a ton, but I get little spots from my flare ups and I absolutely hate it. I had cystic acne and Rosacea was just kind of in the background going unnoticed until I went on Accutane and haven’t had a cyst lately. Now all I see are these annoying, little, rash-like spots. I’m addicted to your videos! I’m so glad to have you in my corner to help guide me through this journey ☺️
Yogi Blair hey!!! Ahhhh you should’ve mentioned it haha 😝 Azelaic Acid has been working wonders for me! I’m currently using Paula’s choice Azelaic Acid. It’s amazing. It’s a little pricey. The Ordinary do a cheaper version that is also amazing, but I hate the texture on the skin. It doesn’t feel nice at all. But it does an amazing job! And whilst I still flush when I’m hot or like...stressed out, that permanent redness is going :)
@@JamesWelsh Omg I'm so excited you replied! It is so comforting to see how amazing your skin looks in hopes that one day I can get there too. I will definitely check out those products. I'm so scared to put anything on my skin because it always seems so sensitive...I have crazy skin. I have so many silly videos on my channel talking about my skincare journey and all the issues I've had. My Rosacea is bizarre. I've never really been constantly red. Mine looks like pimples (subtype 2) which is SO frustrating after coming off of Accutane. I thought I was going to have this gorgeous, clear skin finally, and here I am. The struggle for clear skin is so real!
I'm quite a decent looking guy like not a 10 outta 10 or anything but I was able to get this really great looking girl to go out on a date with me and my skin was so flared up it felt like I can't do anything to make this go away... I believe it's more related to mental health than just skin being skin : /
I'm not sure but ,if anyone else is searching for alternative treatments for rosacea try HootFace.xyz ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my cousin got amazing success with it.
This video is super old but more recently I’ve discovered Azaleic Acid! It’s taken away a lot of my redness! I’ve only bee in using it for 3 weeks but it’s done an amazing job so far. The ordinary do a cheap but amazing Azelaic Acid
James Welsh does it look like makeup or like foundation cause I tried some color correcting redness cream and it looked like foundation so I never ended up using it
Rosacea is one of the most annoying skin conditions you can have. Literally just touching your face to apply products can increase the redness for hours. Sometimes it feels like looking at your skin the wrong way can affect it. There's no cure for it, and there doesn't seem to be a specific treatment that consistently works for people. It's also considered a progressive condition, and will probably get worse over time, even if you baby your skin. I truly hate it, and would actually rather have acne. I've spent hours upon hours researching rosacea online, and try to avoid the common triggers and take the most obvious precautions (sunscreen is critical, as it is for everyone, even without rosacea). But one website will list a food as a trigger, then the next website will list that food as being helpful. Individual experiences that I've read have been contradictory. Even finding the most basic skincare routine of products you don't react to, is a minefield. I can't fully convey how frustrating it is, mainly because relatively little is known about the condition (it's an inflammatory condition, and the research on the rosacea-gut health connection might be promising). As a skincare lover, I can't even enjoy trying new products anymore. When people with normal skin try new products, it's fun and exciting to aniticipate using them, and the potential positive changes they're going to experience with their skin. That excitement for others is anxiety for me, and hoping that a new product won't make my skin burn, itch, or become more flushed. Rosacea is kind of like the permanent compromised skin barrier condition. So, I may never be able to use vitamin c serums, retinoids, or acids on a regular basis, at least without suffering unfavorable consequences. The triggers I've identified thus far for my rosacea: 1) Premenstrual syndrome 2) Extreme hot and cold temperatures/cold wind 3) Yogurt/dairy 4) Too much friction on my face 5) Not liberally moisturizing
Absolutely correct it’s the most frustrating thing ever ever and the contradictory information out there kills me I’ve found nothing that helps at all and I’m very careful with ingredients
Finacea foam or gel works but is expensive so try to get a dermatologist to help you out. Try doing your face routine at night, when you wake up in the morning you’ll wake up looking a lot better. It progresses but it’s manageable so long as you can find the perfect skin care routine. Small doses of doxycycline (talk to Derma) is meant to help a lot as well. Rosacea is mostly an inflammatory condition and the small dosed pills are meant to treat it pretty effectively. Don’t over complicate your routine either. Wash the face, moisturize, and a foam like Finacea you’ll see great results. Don’t give up.
I understand you so much, I'll se a dermatologist but I really hope he/she will understand that for me skincare is much more than just cleanse and moisturizer.. I don't know because some products works for a while and than is always a mess, plus I have plenty of products left on the drawers because they are like fire on the skin.. I would love to try some korean products, they seem quite soothing but I don't want to waste money again.. Sorry for the long comment, but right now I'm in one of those "angry-skin" moments (I just showered lol)...
I feel you. Im a guy and have it in my already larger than normal nose. I have it along with regular acne too, and you can imagine how that makes me feel. But over time we will find the perfect routine it just takes time
Have you ever heard of the phrase. You are what you eat. Try changing your diet. A lot of us rosacea sufferers not only have problems with our skin, but problems with our inside too. This problem contributes to what our skin looks like. Some people are blessed to be able to eat junk food and shit food without having a reaction but unfortunately we are more sensitive. So instead of using creams (which made it worse), and i stopped going to my dermatologist because he treated it like it experiment, like “take this.. okay, that didn’t work? Take that..” (which for our skin makes it worse, sufferers will know how quick our skin gots aggravated), i joined a gym and let my skin sweat more (also good for mental health, keeps you good during stressful situations), started drinking boiled kettle water with a lemon squeezed first thing in the morning, at least half an hour before eating anything (helps flush out ur insides) and started drinking apple cider vinegar in my water with meals (as it breaks down harmful bacteria in food, that some sufferers are unable to do, and promotes higher stomach acid for people who have low stomach acid) I believe these things changed my skin dramatically. I still get flare up if i drink alcohol but that about it). When i would shower before, (warm shower) i would have dry and red skin when getting out, however, now skin is smooth and refreshed. Do not use any more shit on your face. You will just fuck it up more and more and whatever you do don’t use MIRVASO. If I didn’t have rosacea before using that, I certainly did after. Anyway, find the problem in your body. And keep your room clean and shit. Im not saying mites don’t exist that feed off of that. 🤷🏽♂️
It’s even more difficult for those who deal with social anxiety. For me personally I have a fear of getting to red in the face. So when I go to social settings I always check my face in the bathroom mirror and usually put some cold water on a paper towel to cool my face down. I’ve went as far as getting foundation creams to hide it. I’ll eventually get through this and to the point where I just embrace anything that comes my way. I’m learning more each day how to cope and I appreciate my life regardless of the struggles. Best wishes to you all.
Whenever I meet a new person they always ask me if I got burnt. My natural answer now is just “that’s just my skin colour” it always knocks me down. I hope these things help.
EVERYTIME! Don’t let it get to you I just say oh I have a skin condition called Rosacea, you’re being honest with them. And tbh makes them feel bad about pointing it out and so they should lol.
If you love your hot showers too much to sacrifice them, drinking your daily intake of water actually helps a lot. Also spraying a cold hydrating-calming toner feels good on the skin after a hot shower if it feels a bit hot and tight(even one as simple as rosewater or a water mist). Very basic advice I know but it does make things better for me.
NO WAY! I was just looking through UA-cam and searching for some hacks on how to get rid of redness, and then I checked my subscription box and there is your video! THANKS 😍
I love the aloe Vera range from The Body Shop! I have super sensitive, acne-prone, normal-to-dry skin with lots of redness. It is SOOOO much better! Here’s my skincare routine: Night- The Body Shop Camomile Micellar Water The Body Shop Aloe Calming Cream Cleanser I will typically use a mask next. My favorite masks are BB Seaweed(Lush), Aloe Vera Cream Rescue Mask(Body Shop, I actually use this one overnight in replacement of my night cream), Oatifix(Lush), and Almond Milk and Oats Face Mask(Body Shop Lush’s Breath of Fresh Air toner Body Shop’s Vitamin E overnight serum Body Shop’s aloe night cream mixed with a few drops of Marula oil Morning: Aloe calming cream cleanser by The Body Shop Breath of Fresh Air toner by Lush Aloe calming day moisturizer by the Body Shop Beet Shield sunscreen by Krave Beauty I absolutely recommend all of these products! Any time I break out, I use the BB Seaweed face mask and it helps so much!!
Rosacea plagued my life for nigh on twelve years and I'd given up all hope. Then I read some great online feedback regarding a cream called proskin rosacea. Now I was well aware about being let down before and know that what works for one may not work for someone else but this cream was a revelation for me and my red wine coloured bumpy spotty skin has literally fallen off as healthy skin has replaced it. I don't look like the same person. I just had to put this out there.
Why am I so unlucky? I have mild to moderate rosacea, extreme sensitive and combination skin (very oily or very dry) and, on top of that, acne prone skin with a lot of blackheads (this acne is not from rosacea)... What else could I have? Thanks for the video though 😳🤦🏻♀️
This makes things so hard for me because I try so hard to take care of my skin but I feel like no one believes me or can even tell because of how red I get.
He's absolutely correct about hot showers. Make them fast and simple. And I would say caffeine probably has a big impact on your skin , I quit for 2 mouth had my first cup two weeks ago and my face is now getting red and irritated. Going to quit again to make sure I'm not imagining things.
It’s snowing where I live so when I take a shower I turn on the hot water to the hottest setting and it feels like I’m thawing out my body 😭😭😭 it feels sooo good but I know it’s bad for a skin idk what to do lmaooo
Omg finally someone who went into detail on which product to use in which order and HOW and WHEN to actually apply...I am subscribing and unsubscribing from others who dont get into detail like that
The irony my skin freaked out even more when I tried centella 🤦♀️ I will try again in the future because of course I got the cosrx centella toner and serum because I was so excited and thought they were the perfect products I needed.
Noticed some people mention that a simpler routine has helped reduce redness. I am also part of that group 😔 not cleansing in the morning has helped a lot. If I exercise in the morning, I cleanse for 15 seconds or so but I use a gentle cleanser either way. Sunscreen is always suggested but sometimes you can skip it if it irritates your skin. I use Korean sunscreens because American sunscreen is just garbage. I can use Korean sunscreen everyday
Hi James, I have diagnosed Rosacea. I find skin care products with fragrances irritate my skin and stay away from those. I always read the ingredients list before I buy a product. I also use soothing and calming products that have Centella asiatica, Aloevera, Madicassiocide, green tea and niancinimide. I always use the Benton Aloe Vera mask when I’ve had a shower to reduce redness and restore moisture to the skin. And I find my rosacea flairs up more that time of the month for us ladies.
ooohh siiis my whole family has red skinned faces like always red so you know can’t enjoy not worrying if i look like i’m blushing every single time of the day
Elemis superfood cica calm hydration juice is a wonder for my rosacea. Also Kate Somerville Cermides and Omegas serum and her Goat Milk moisturizer. I don't use foaming cleansers. I use Purlisse Blue Lotus Milk cleanser and it is absolutely amazing my holy grail. Removes makeup and cleans skin perfectly with no drying. In winter and windy days I use the Mudmasky leave on winter mask as a last step for daytime.. And azelaic acid for sure. I also only use PHAs. If I do need to occasionally use a BHA I only spot treat or use in my T zone where I don't have rosacea. I'm trying to save up for IPL because I have broken capillaries as well. I hope this helps someone. (Edited to add for my toner I use Pure Heals Propolis toner and the Pure Heals Propolis sleep mask. And the BEST is the APTO turmeric mask. Turmeric works amazing for redness and rosacea. I use it at night because it will make my skin red at first but in the morning its like cleared everything up. Best of luck everyone. Acne and rosacea are horrible but we are ALL still gorgeous and beautiful. Fuck em if they don't think your rosy face is adorable because it is. Don't ever forget that.)
I actually have a oily T zone but I also have dry cheeks because of my rosacea. When I don't wear foundation I always get comments&questions if I feel okay, if I'm not sick, if I just had to run really fast or if I am blushing etcetc it's so annoying. Literally every normal thing triggers my rosacea. Warmth, cold, coffee, tea, wind, sunshine, friction and a lot of skincare products. The only product that helps me with the extreme red and hot cheek moments is a prescription cream from my doctor. Other than that not much helps. Just the prescription cream and moisturize a lot.. but the redness will stay forever. It's a chronic skin condition unfortunately
I've only just found this video. I suffer with Rosacea all the time. Some days it's extreme. It's rare that I come across videos mentioning the condition so thank you 😊
i finally got diagnosed with rosacea! i’ve had rosy cheeks all my life and i finally went to the dermatologist and got diagnosed with rosacea and super dry and sensitive skin. i also have keratosis pilaris on my arms, and i’m going to be introducing some good ingredients to my skincare routine 1 at a time! i currently use an AHA/BHA exfoliant, which doesn’t hurt my skin, but might irritate it. i will be switching that. i will also be trying centella creams, lukewarm showers, keeping a super gentle cleanser, and using snail mucin for hydration
my face is pink and I actually hate it because the rest of my body is a nice colour but it’s just my face that is red and goes red all the time and it shatters my confidence :’((
When your skin is reacting to everything even water 💦 then you need to fix the skin BARRIER first ..Seven skin method is good for this and then moisturize the moisture inside of your skin and then we want to skin care treatments
I’m an esthetician. I have terrible redness in the creases of my nostrils and under nostrils. If you have this. ... it could be damage from excessive blowing of your nose and rubbing that you broke all your capillaries mixed with dry or dehydrated skin. Best thing is to stop rubbing harshly on your skin!
Great video! I personally use the NIOD modulating glucosides which helps with redness and irritation. It contains plenty of soothing ingredients such as narengin chalcone, bisabolol, EGCG etc...
This has been a huge help for my dry and sensitive skin! I watched this 5 years ago and found some of my favorite products that I still use today so thank you! 🤗💗✨ The Soon Jung cica balm, Klairs midnight blue cream, the I'm from Rice Toner and I found a ceramide cream from Holika Holika, are all amazing for my skin!
If you have rosacea commence mineral sunscreen use immediately, use gentle, fragrance free skincare, get to a really good cosmetic dermatologist as soon as you can afford it, invest in IPL or laser treatment and get prescribed Azelaic Acid - that combination is what this condition actually requires. It is a potent inflammatory condition of the skin that requires a multifaceted approach. Keep up the good work, James!
Lasers and Azelaic Acid are only a temporary solution. You need to get laser every year in order to keep the redness and broken capillaries at bay. That shit's expensive AF and azelaic acid, as soon as you stop the treatment the redness comes back. If you want a permanent cure for rosacea, start correcting your dietary habits. Any skin issue signals an underlying problem somewhere much deeper.
@@elian3084 Where is the evidence to back up that claim about diet and rosacea? I would love to see it. Of course you need to continue treatment through lasers and azelaic acid - rosacea is a chronic condition.
@@lol365 Yeah, it's obviously an easier solution for people with no willpower. Why cut those bad foods that make you so happy when you can just eat whatever you like and laser away... And as for evidence, there's tons if you are open-minded enough to read it, but I guess it takes skill to use Google nowadays, doesn't it? 😄
Hey! There is a fully a fair amount of evidence that ties certain foods to a flare up of rosacea. Whilst it may not ‘cure’ it as such, you can keep it in control. In fact the ‘rosacea’ diet became an odd celebrity diet trend to see improvements in your skin. There’s some really interesting videos on UA-cam about it, personal stories etc etc. The same with skincare, there’s enough evidence to suggest both can keep rosacea at bay, but not ‘cure’ as such
I have rosacea and I noticed that cosrx centella really help of instantly reduced redness. Thank you for sharing this information with us. It really helpful
My Rosacea trigger is spicy food and overexposure to the sun or just too much heat in general. Topical treatments from your GP/doctor for reducing the effects of Rosacea are the pits and severely dry your skin out and they also reek. The problem I have is I like the occasional spicy food, so I have to be prepared for my Rosacea to go mental within a 24 hour period and can last for a good few days, as and when I eat anything spicy. I try to avoid spicy food if at all possible and find flavour alternative foods that don't make it feel like I'm missing out. My skin is very happy for this. Rosacea is an incurable skin condition which is most commonly hereditary. My Rosacea is limited, at present to a small area of the left cheek (near to the nose) and pretty much the whole of the right cheek; weird I know. That said, it could be far worse. It isn't...yet! I have noticed, on the right side, that the Rosacea is moving upward toward the side of the right eye. Marvellous!
I have really sensitive, red, oily, acne-prone skin, and I also deal with fungal acne all over my face and body, and if that's not enough I suffer with huge pores, hyperpigmentation and eczema as well. Literally the worst skin type to ever exist in the history of skin types!!
New sub, after searching for makeup to cover my Rosacea. I am so sick of the "Your face is so red" comments that I occasionally receive. Some of the products that I see in this video would seriously leave my sensitive skin even more irritated but everyone's skin reacts differently. Thank you for addressing this issue. I do have a question: I want to use a simple makeup that would cover the redness What do I look for at a store such as CVS or Walgreens? How do I choose the Correct Color so that it looks right? I wish that I could find a empathetic person around here that could show me what to do in person and help me find the right products....Thank you!
Heyyyyy!! Thanks for subscribing. Okay so I have no idea about makeup! I do know you can buy green ‘colour corrector’ and that’s made to hide red, you can then put makeup over that. My brother is a makeup artist (robert welsh on UA-cam or Robertwlsh on Instagram) and he’ll be able to help you more with picking a colour etc! ☺️🙏🏼
After watching this video I went to put my gel moisteriser on.... to sooth my red face... it was my gel moisteriser causing my red face... binned it... and covered my face in chilled fresh aloe gel to calm my face down...
I started having rosacea in my 20's and its honestly the worst. Sometimes even just washing my face and my hands being naturally warm, makes my face red. Not to mention in the summer theres just no hope at all lol. I've tried so many different things and I feel like half of the time if I just don't wash my face, it looks its best. It's so weird.
I've noticed the same thing! I stopped all products and I'm managing my stress better and I've gotten soooooo much less red. The only thing is I really need to start wearing sunscreen, but I'm terrified whichever I try will either irritate my skin or make me feel like a ball of grease if not both. I'm 17 but I've been suuuuper red in the face for about 2 years now, it really takes a blow to my self-esteem. I relate so harddd :((
@@lovingheize The only sunscreen I can use is Neutrogena's ultra sheer. It's the only kind that won't burn my skin, which is weird because its supposed to protect it, right? I haven't really noticed a difference in the redness though, but hopefully we'll get there!
Erborian CC RED CORRECT is not cheap buy it at Ulta when they have their yearly Half-price sale . It is worth every penny can be used by both men and women knocks out the redness makes your skin look fabulous and it is actually soothing at the same time.
During winters ,specially in Jan and feb my skin(cheeks) turns red and inflamed, and flackey and dry,itchy I can even wash my face becoz I'm scared that my face wash make it worse😭😭😭 what should I do
I'd try cleaning oils or balms for washing your face, that helped me a lot. See if that's already enough for you, you don't necessarily need to do a second cleanse. If I do, I use Bioderma micellar water and rinse that off afterwards as well. Then I start my usual routine. I dont clean my face in the morning, just splash with water as otherwise it would be too drying
A really good video :) I also have problems with redness and irritated skin on my forehead. It's really frustrating to find the right products for my dry and oily skin, but i will try out some of the products you mentioned. Greetings from Germany ;)
Took me a while to realize he said "abmornality." (but i could be wrong hehehe)10:43 It's funny in the most endearing kind of way. Just like how people say "emeny" rather than enemy.
I was diagnosed with rosacea tish year in May and the doctor prescribed me Lactoferrin based pills(Lactiferon Derma), a Bioderma AR BB cream(obsessed with it btw) and an ivermectin cream(Soolantra) to use for PM. After 4 months I had switched to Niacinamide 10% with Azelaic acid and keeping the ivermectin cream. The redness has reduced but I still have some small spots like brown freckles, but I manage to cover them up with the Bioderma AR BB cream. And of course I use daily SPF for indoor and outdoor as well(Anthelios Spray SPF 50). Hope this would help anybody. I love your channel and all your insights🤗 Keep rocking and stay safe😍
Ive had rosacea for many years. Diet is definitely one key to keep your face from being so inflamed. Eating healthy helped a lot. I dont touch my face at all and dont let other go near my face either. I got rosacea due to sun exposure. I used to live in the cold, northern climates for most of my life and then moved straight to the most dry, hot part of the U.S; Phoenox, Arizona. I never wore sunscreen and always went swimming all day every day, getting sunburnt on my face all the time. I REGRET IT SO MUCH. I still havent found a good suncreen that doesnt flare up my skin amd give me ance/blisters. I use a product called Prosacea, its homeopathic and has calmed my face a whole ton. I use it every time i wash my face
Thanks for sharing! 🤗 I do have to say that I've used COSR Centella Blemish Cream and it made my face itch like crazy! 😱 Think it's the tea tree oil. I got very sensitive skin and mild rosacea so it's really problematic to find products that wont make my face look like a stop sign 🤣🛑
Forgot to mention that if you got sensitive/reactive/rosaeca skin you should look up the ingredients in products before you buy 👍 There are some websites to do this on. And the ingredient list may be different from region to region. Btw the Blue toner mentioned in this video got ethanol (alcohol) in it as nr 3 ingredient, which is not suitable for sensitive skin 🛑
Try having rosecea and lupus rash. When I tell you facial pain get bad it’s gets bad. I had to go through skin biopsies to map out which cells were rosecea and which were lupus rash. I need to get rid of the dead spider veins on my cheeks I hate them and I don’t know how to get rid of them other then what I have been doing which is microneedlying which seems to break them down and get reabsrbed. It I have hit a platue on some of them and I’m afraid I need laser.CBD oil is the only thing that calms down the redness in lupus flare day’s. I only use josiemaran products so I was so happy to see her drop a CBD line
Honestly i always loved red skin especially on the cheeks but rn after watching so many videos and comments about how people don't like that redness and rn i don't find em pretty too 😒🤧
My face feels like it's burning now. Prolonged exposure to warm environments cause my face to go red, even with little to no anxiety. When I go red I feel defeated and my work performance decreases.
I don't know how to treat this problem and it has been with me for YEARS, I almost ALWAYS have red rose-like patches down on my cheeks and when I sweat they get even redder
James, don't you think we are depending on these chemical products so much? Am feeling that.. so am trying to avoid too many products on my skin.. less is more! What do u say?
Hey! I don't think so no. There's this idea that synthetic ingredients are bad for the skin and that natural skincare is better and its just not true. As far as 'less is more'....it can be! It depends on your own skin :) Some people don't need to /want to do do more than one step in there routine and thats fine as long as their skin is okay with that! But i always use exercise as an example.....if you go running for 15 mins 3 times a week...you'll be healthy. But if you go to the gym 5 days a week, for an hour each time, do cardia and weights, your results are going to be a lot more obvious and you'll most likely have the body of your dreams! So like skincare....you get out, what you put in, in the majority of cases :) Also, our skin actually needs a lot of ingredients that are currently in skincare. For example, AHA's help with moisture retention whilst Hyaluronic Acid (our skin creates this naturally) can be used as a serum to help people with dry, damaged or dehydrated skin. So depends on each person and what their own specific skin is craving :)
I have rosacea and my skin reacts to most flare up triggers, I've recently been using Burts Bees Brightening Dailey facial cleanser, as well as Clinique's Clarifying lotion twice a day daily exfoliator and they've made a difference in my skin :)
My Rosacea is PERMANENT. I have visible small blood vessels on my cheeks. It's horrible. I'm going to try a Niacinimide Serum & see if that helps a bit. My skin is not bumpy in the slightest--just the redness. Is always worse in summer months since temperature DOES affect it. The only trigger I have in making it worse temporarily is exercise. My skin becomes hot & flushed. Don't give up, guys, you can treat it. I know it's trial & error but be patient & find what helps for you!
Really wanted to love the missha essence but unfortunately it seems to be breaking me out! Maybe my skin is too sensitive and reacts to fermented ingredients :(
I have rosacea and can’t use exfoliants or toners at all and very rarely I use soap free cleansers. I use fragrance free moisturiser and cool water to rinse my face most of the time and rarely wear makeup because most brands hurt my skin. I’m trying to get in to see a dermatologist but funds are low at the moment so it’s difficult.
Tone down rosacea with clay and lemon Clay is renowned for skin benefits. The clayey water could, in particular, attenuate, more or less strongly, the marks of rosacea ua-cam.com/video/YI7Gge5FNJE/v-deo.html
Amazing content. As many of you I am always red / flushed. I look like my face was put on the oven and taking out after a month. This always happens when I am at work ( go figure ) I was doing some research and my Dermatologist asked me if I was using products on my skin. Told him everything I was using and when I told him I was also using chemicals sunscreen he stopped me and said that’s what’s causing your face to turn so red. He gave me a whole explanation about chemical sunscreen, but long story short, as amazing as they are ( chemical sunscreen ) they are bad for rosacea. As of right now on the hunt for a good physical sunscreen so if anyone knows please please please let me know.
Hello! I might be a bit late, but I’ve been on the hunt recently for a good mineral sunscreen, since chemical sunscreens irritate my skin. I really like the Salt & Stone spf 50 sunscreen lotion. Fragrance free and hydrating.
Damn you know your shit. Thank you so much. I have red blotchy skin that comes and goes. When it gets bad it gets real itchy and red. Going to use your tips.
Oh I guess I should say that I was diagnosed 20 years ago with a moderate case of rosacea and I am red over my entire face. I now believe I am blessed with oily skin which I used to think was a curse. I only wash my face once a day but I double cleanse and use the Klairs Supple preparation Unscented toner and I switch off with the rice bran toner. I’m extremely disappointed that my favorite skin care brand I believe sold of my favorite line of theirs So once I use up their products I have to find something else.Anyway I am almost 60 and people Guess my age at 35 to 42 so somethings working.
Amazing! Thank you so much for making this video! I just bought 2 of the products u recommended...I’m already using some of the others thanks to you. I really needed this video. Thank you!
I also wanted to mention that I have been doing light therapy with a light from smarterlights. I’m using the dual care red and amber light. It really helps with inflammation plus helps collagen production. Also a new fav is honevo kanuka honey mask that I use nightly and it’s helped with redness and inflammation tremendously. It’s a pharmaceutical grade honey and is proven to help redness and rosacea. Thanks again!
Hey! So since filming this, within the last two months, I have been diagnosed with rosacea. I wanted to share how I’ve been treating it. This has removed my redness significantly. Whilst these products have been working for me, they may not have the same effect on you but I hope they will!
1) Azelaic Acid: this is usually given to people with rosacea but prescribed at 20%. Paula’s choice do a 10% Azelaic Acid booster that has haloed remove redness and seal with any spots. Within 2 weeks I’ve seen an obvious difference.
2) products that help repair the skin barrier. I’ve been using Krave’s GBR and it’s been helping loads. As well as Rovectin’s Barrier repair cream.
3) avoiding AHA/BHA and using PHA/ LHA instead. These are gentler versions of AHA and BHA and I get no irritation on my skin what so ever
When you were describing your redness I thought you might have Rosacea! I wasn’t going to comment but then I saw this. I have it too & your skin looks beautiful. I can’t seem to get mine that clear. I don’t flush a ton, but I get little spots from my flare ups and I absolutely hate it. I had cystic acne and Rosacea was just kind of in the background going unnoticed until I went on Accutane and haven’t had a cyst lately. Now all I see are these annoying, little, rash-like spots. I’m addicted to your videos! I’m so glad to have you in my corner to help guide me through this journey ☺️
Yogi Blair hey!!! Ahhhh you should’ve mentioned it haha 😝 Azelaic Acid has been working wonders for me! I’m currently using Paula’s choice Azelaic Acid. It’s amazing. It’s a little pricey. The Ordinary do a cheaper version that is also amazing, but I hate the texture on the skin. It doesn’t feel nice at all. But it does an amazing job! And whilst I still flush when I’m hot or like...stressed out, that permanent redness is going :)
@@JamesWelsh Omg I'm so excited you replied! It is so comforting to see how amazing your skin looks in hopes that one day I can get there too. I will definitely check out those products. I'm so scared to put anything on my skin because it always seems so sensitive...I have crazy skin. I have so many silly videos on my channel talking about my skincare journey and all the issues I've had. My Rosacea is bizarre. I've never really been constantly red. Mine looks like pimples (subtype 2) which is SO frustrating after coming off of Accutane. I thought I was going to have this gorgeous, clear skin finally, and here I am. The struggle for clear skin is so real!
James Welsh are we supposed to buy and use every product in this video or pick and use a few
@@JamesWelsh Do you use the Azelaic Acid during PM and AM and what step of the Skincare routine should I use it as well as the KRAVE GBR:? Thank you.
anyone else randomly go red and it KNOCKS your confidence
Louis Graham yes!!!
Yeah
I'm quite a decent looking guy like not a 10 outta 10 or anything but I was able to get this really great looking girl to go out on a date with me and my skin was so flared up it felt like I can't do anything to make this go away... I believe it's more related to mental health than just skin being skin : /
I'm not sure but ,if anyone else is searching for
alternative treatments for rosacea
try HootFace.xyz ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my cousin got amazing success with it.
Yes bro😥
"no hot showers"
Me: walking out of the pits of hell after finishing my shower
Omg meeeee
😂😂😂
Sorry, if you have seen the movie Dune, that scene with Sting? That's me coming out of a shower. XD
Lmao I was in the shower, and though "damn my skin always gets red, imma look up some videos" 👀 the water was boiling
HAHSHAHSHAHHAA ME
I can deal with the redness - but in combination with uneven texture is disheartening.
Samantha Asher I’m right there with you...
Same here 😔😔
same
Ughh I know same here😔
Same here I’ve been struggling for years 😔
My face is always red and it makes me so insecure
Ye boi Finn u‘re not alone
Ye boi Finn same my face is always red for no reason it’s so embarrassing
I’m in high school and all the people there make fun of me for it and sometimes my family does too.
This video is super old but more recently I’ve discovered Azaleic Acid! It’s taken away a lot of my redness! I’ve only bee in using it for 3 weeks but it’s done an amazing job so far. The ordinary do a cheap but amazing Azelaic Acid
James Welsh does it look like makeup or like foundation cause I tried some color correcting redness cream and it looked like foundation so I never ended up using it
I literally breathe and my Rosacea's like: 🍅
Rosewater helps soothing my skin much more than any other product.
Rosacea is one of the most annoying skin conditions you can have. Literally just touching your face to apply products can increase the redness for hours. Sometimes it feels like looking at your skin the wrong way can affect it. There's no cure for it, and there doesn't seem to be a specific treatment that consistently works for people. It's also considered a progressive condition, and will probably get worse over time, even if you baby your skin. I truly hate it, and would actually rather have acne. I've spent hours upon hours researching rosacea online, and try to avoid the common triggers and take the most obvious precautions (sunscreen is critical, as it is for everyone, even without rosacea). But one website will list a food as a trigger, then the next website will list that food as being helpful. Individual experiences that I've read have been contradictory. Even finding the most basic skincare routine of products you don't react to, is a minefield.
I can't fully convey how frustrating it is, mainly because relatively little is known about the condition (it's an inflammatory condition, and the research on the rosacea-gut health connection might be promising). As a skincare lover, I can't even enjoy trying new products anymore. When people with normal skin try new products, it's fun and exciting to aniticipate using them, and the potential positive changes they're going to experience with their skin. That excitement for others is anxiety for me, and hoping that a new product won't make my skin burn, itch, or become more flushed. Rosacea is kind of like the permanent compromised skin barrier condition. So, I may never be able to use vitamin c serums, retinoids, or acids on a regular basis, at least without suffering unfavorable consequences.
The triggers I've identified thus far for my rosacea:
1) Premenstrual syndrome
2) Extreme hot and cold temperatures/cold wind
3) Yogurt/dairy
4) Too much friction on my face
5) Not liberally moisturizing
Absolutely correct it’s the most frustrating thing ever ever and the contradictory information out there kills me I’ve found nothing that helps at all and I’m very careful with ingredients
Finacea foam or gel works but is expensive so try to get a dermatologist to help you out. Try doing your face routine at night, when you wake up in the morning you’ll wake up looking a lot better. It progresses but it’s manageable so long as you can find the perfect skin care routine. Small doses of doxycycline (talk to Derma) is meant to help a lot as well. Rosacea is mostly an inflammatory condition and the small dosed pills are meant to treat it pretty effectively. Don’t over complicate your routine either. Wash the face, moisturize, and a foam like Finacea you’ll see great results. Don’t give up.
I understand you so much, I'll se a dermatologist but I really hope he/she will understand that for me skincare is much more than just cleanse and moisturizer.. I don't know because some products works for a while and than is always a mess, plus I have plenty of products left on the drawers because they are like fire on the skin.. I would love to try some korean products, they seem quite soothing but I don't want to waste money again.. Sorry for the long comment, but right now I'm in one of those "angry-skin" moments (I just showered lol)...
I feel you. Im a guy and have it in my already larger than normal nose. I have it along with regular acne too, and you can imagine how that makes me feel. But over time we will find the perfect routine it just takes time
Have you ever heard of the phrase. You are what you eat. Try changing your diet. A lot of us rosacea sufferers not only have problems with our skin, but problems with our inside too. This problem contributes to what our skin looks like. Some people are blessed to be able to eat junk food and shit food without having a reaction but unfortunately we are more sensitive. So instead of using creams (which made it worse), and i stopped going to my dermatologist because he treated it like it experiment, like “take this.. okay, that didn’t work? Take that..” (which for our skin makes it worse, sufferers will know how quick our skin gots aggravated), i joined a gym and let my skin sweat more (also good for mental health, keeps you good during stressful situations), started drinking boiled kettle water with a lemon squeezed first thing in the morning, at least half an hour before eating anything (helps flush out ur insides) and started drinking apple cider vinegar in my water with meals (as it breaks down harmful bacteria in food, that some sufferers are unable to do, and promotes higher stomach acid for people who have low stomach acid) I believe these things changed my skin dramatically. I still get flare up if i drink alcohol but that about it). When i would shower before, (warm shower) i would have dry and red skin when getting out, however, now skin is smooth and refreshed. Do not use any more shit on your face. You will just fuck it up more and more and whatever you do don’t use MIRVASO. If I didn’t have rosacea before using that, I certainly did after. Anyway, find the problem in your body. And keep your room clean and shit. Im not saying mites don’t exist that feed off of that. 🤷🏽♂️
It’s even more difficult for those who deal with social anxiety. For me personally I have a fear of getting to red in the face. So when I go to social settings I always check my face in the bathroom mirror and usually put some cold water on a paper towel to cool my face down. I’ve went as far as getting foundation creams to hide it. I’ll eventually get through this and to the point where I just embrace anything that comes my way. I’m learning more each day how to cope and I appreciate my life regardless of the struggles. Best wishes to you all.
I totally relate to you! It feels so dumb when people stare at you
My cheeks have been red my entire life lol. I'm very fair skinned.

Whenever I meet a new person they always ask me if I got burnt. My natural answer now is just “that’s just my skin colour” it always knocks me down. I hope these things help.
It hurts every time having to answer that question
It lokey sucks no one likes me
Mine is usually did you hit your head?
EVERYTIME! Don’t let it get to you
I just say oh I have a skin condition called Rosacea, you’re being honest with them. And tbh makes them feel bad about pointing it out and so they should lol.
I feel like the simplest I keep my skincare the better my rosacea is
whinona purple High five ✋ I have noticed identical correlation.
When i dont use anything my skin is almost perfect. But i want to wear sun screen but it kinda leaves my skin redish.
@@skyhigh7773 really same!! Whats up with that?
I'm guilty of taking hot showers. Hmmm, no wonder my skin always feel dry even after moisturizing.
If you love your hot showers too much to sacrifice them, drinking your daily intake of water actually helps a lot. Also spraying a cold hydrating-calming toner feels good on the skin after a hot shower if it feels a bit hot and tight(even one as simple as rosewater or a water mist). Very basic advice I know but it does make things better for me.
NO WAY! I was just looking through UA-cam and searching for some hacks on how to get rid of redness, and then I checked my subscription box and there is your video! THANKS 😍
ahhhh perfect timing! Let me know how you get on with these!!!
I love the aloe Vera range from The Body Shop! I have super sensitive, acne-prone, normal-to-dry skin with lots of redness. It is SOOOO much better! Here’s my skincare routine:
Night-
The Body Shop Camomile Micellar Water
The Body Shop Aloe Calming Cream Cleanser
I will typically use a mask next. My favorite masks are BB Seaweed(Lush), Aloe Vera Cream Rescue Mask(Body Shop, I actually use this one overnight in replacement of my night cream), Oatifix(Lush), and Almond Milk and Oats Face Mask(Body Shop
Lush’s Breath of Fresh Air toner
Body Shop’s Vitamin E overnight serum
Body Shop’s aloe night cream mixed with a few drops of Marula oil
Morning:
Aloe calming cream cleanser by The Body Shop
Breath of Fresh Air toner by Lush
Aloe calming day moisturizer by the Body Shop
Beet Shield sunscreen by Krave Beauty
I absolutely recommend all of these products! Any time I break out, I use the BB Seaweed face mask and it helps so much!!
Rosacea plagued my life for nigh on twelve years and I'd given up all hope. Then I read some great online feedback regarding a cream called proskin rosacea. Now I was well aware about being let down before and know that what works for one may not work for someone else but this cream was a revelation for me and my red wine coloured bumpy spotty skin has literally fallen off as healthy skin has replaced it. I don't look like the same person. I just had to put this out there.
Why am I so unlucky? I have mild to moderate rosacea, extreme sensitive and combination skin (very oily or very dry) and, on top of that, acne prone skin with a lot of blackheads (this acne is not from rosacea)... What else could I have?
Thanks for the video though 😳🤦🏻♀️
Me too): my skin is always dry and oily or both
Oh my goodness this is basically my skin as well :'( the struggle is real... I wish you luck on your journey to better skin! ❤️
@@nerktwin +1 😪😪
Add cystic acne to all of the above and that’s my skin😢
Girl same, it sucks 😝 most of the time i dont know which products to get because my skin is weird and finnicky
This makes things so hard for me because I try so hard to take care of my skin but I feel like no one believes me or can even tell because of how red I get.
My skin gets dishearteningly red, and it’s difficult to tell what makes it worse. Thank you for this informative video! ❤️
He's absolutely correct about hot showers. Make them fast and simple. And I would say caffeine probably has a big impact on your skin , I quit for 2 mouth had my first cup two weeks ago and my face is now getting red and irritated. Going to quit again to make sure I'm not imagining things.
It’s snowing where I live so when I take a shower I turn on the hot water to the hottest setting and it feels like I’m thawing out my body 😭😭😭 it feels sooo good but I know it’s bad for a skin idk what to do lmaooo
Actually James, if we’re going to be honest, I love hot showers!
Please make an update on your rosacea routine! I was also diagnosed and would love to know what's working for you!
Omg finally someone who went into detail on which product to use in which order and HOW and WHEN to actually apply...I am subscribing and unsubscribing from others who dont get into detail like that
The irony my skin freaked out even more when I tried centella 🤦♀️
I will try again in the future because of course I got the cosrx centella toner and serum because I was so excited and thought they were the perfect products I needed.
Please more videos on redness and rosacea!! 🙏🏼
Noticed some people mention that a simpler routine has helped reduce redness. I am also part of that group 😔 not cleansing in the morning has helped a lot. If I exercise in the morning, I cleanse for 15 seconds or so but I use a gentle cleanser either way. Sunscreen is always suggested but sometimes you can skip it if it irritates your skin. I use Korean sunscreens because American sunscreen is just garbage. I can use Korean sunscreen everyday
So tired of redness and dehydration... Love your channel
Hi James, I have diagnosed Rosacea. I find skin care products with fragrances irritate my skin and stay away from those. I always read the ingredients list before I buy a product. I also use soothing and calming products that have Centella asiatica, Aloevera, Madicassiocide, green tea and niancinimide. I always use the Benton Aloe Vera mask when I’ve had a shower to reduce redness and restore moisture to the skin. And I find my rosacea flairs up more that time of the month for us ladies.
ooohh siiis my whole family has red skinned faces like always red so you know can’t enjoy not worrying if i look like i’m blushing every single time of the day
Do you guys also get red when you get nervous or feel like anxiety? Or is it just me?
Elemis superfood cica calm hydration juice is a wonder for my rosacea. Also Kate Somerville Cermides and Omegas serum and her Goat Milk moisturizer. I don't use foaming cleansers. I use Purlisse Blue Lotus Milk cleanser and it is absolutely amazing my holy grail. Removes makeup and cleans skin perfectly with no drying. In winter and windy days I use the Mudmasky leave on winter mask as a last step for daytime.. And azelaic acid for sure. I also only use PHAs. If I do need to occasionally use a BHA I only spot treat or use in my T zone where I don't have rosacea. I'm trying to save up for IPL because I have broken capillaries as well. I hope this helps someone. (Edited to add for my toner I use Pure Heals Propolis toner and the Pure Heals Propolis sleep mask. And the BEST is the APTO turmeric mask. Turmeric works amazing for redness and rosacea. I use it at night because it will make my skin red at first but in the morning its like cleared everything up. Best of luck everyone. Acne and rosacea are horrible but we are ALL still gorgeous and beautiful. Fuck em if they don't think your rosy face is adorable because it is. Don't ever forget that.)
My cheeks randomly get all warm and flushed :/ I’m glad I found this video
I actually have a oily T zone but I also have dry cheeks because of my rosacea. When I don't wear foundation I always get comments&questions if I feel okay, if I'm not sick, if I just had to run really fast or if I am blushing etcetc it's so annoying. Literally every normal thing triggers my rosacea. Warmth, cold, coffee, tea, wind, sunshine, friction and a lot of skincare products. The only product that helps me with the extreme red and hot cheek moments is a prescription cream from my doctor. Other than that not much helps. Just the prescription cream and moisturize a lot.. but the redness will stay forever. It's a chronic skin condition unfortunately
I cant believe you have rosacea, your skin looks like baby skin😍😳
I've only just found this video. I suffer with Rosacea all the time. Some days it's extreme. It's rare that I come across videos mentioning the condition so thank you 😊
i finally got diagnosed with rosacea! i’ve had rosy cheeks all my life and i finally went to the dermatologist and got diagnosed with rosacea and super dry and sensitive skin. i also have keratosis pilaris on my arms, and i’m going to be introducing some good ingredients to my skincare routine 1 at a time!
i currently use an AHA/BHA exfoliant, which doesn’t hurt my skin, but might irritate it. i will be switching that. i will also be trying centella creams, lukewarm showers, keeping a super gentle cleanser, and using snail mucin for hydration
I've just started using TO's glycolic acid toner on KP as I've heard it really helps.
my face is pink and I actually hate it because the rest of my body is a nice colour but it’s just my face that is red and goes red all the time and it shatters my confidence :’((
When your skin is reacting to everything even water 💦 then you need to fix the skin BARRIER first ..Seven skin method is good for this and then moisturize the moisture inside of your skin and then we want to skin care treatments
I’m an esthetician. I have terrible redness in the creases of my nostrils and under nostrils. If you have this. ... it could be damage from excessive blowing of your nose and rubbing that you broke all your capillaries mixed with dry or dehydrated skin. Best thing is to stop rubbing harshly on your skin!
I always get redness on my cheeks and people think I've put makeup/blusher on 🤦🏽♂️
Great video! I personally use the NIOD modulating glucosides which helps with redness and irritation. It contains plenty of soothing ingredients such as narengin chalcone, bisabolol, EGCG etc...
This has been a huge help for my dry and sensitive skin! I watched this 5 years ago and found some of my favorite products that I still use today so thank you! 🤗💗✨ The Soon Jung cica balm, Klairs midnight blue cream, the I'm from Rice Toner and I found a ceramide cream from Holika Holika, are all amazing for my skin!
If you have rosacea commence mineral sunscreen use immediately, use gentle, fragrance free skincare, get to a really good cosmetic dermatologist as soon as you can afford it, invest in IPL or laser treatment and get prescribed Azelaic Acid - that combination is what this condition actually requires. It is a potent inflammatory condition of the skin that requires a multifaceted approach. Keep up the good work, James!
Lasers and Azelaic Acid are only a temporary solution. You need to get laser every year in order to keep the redness and broken capillaries at bay. That shit's expensive AF and azelaic acid, as soon as you stop the treatment the redness comes back. If you want a permanent cure for rosacea, start correcting your dietary habits. Any skin issue signals an underlying problem somewhere much deeper.
@@elian3084 Where is the evidence to back up that claim about diet and rosacea? I would love to see it. Of course you need to continue treatment through lasers and azelaic acid - rosacea is a chronic condition.
@@lol365 Yeah, it's obviously an easier solution for people with no willpower. Why cut those bad foods that make you so happy when you can just eat whatever you like and laser away... And as for evidence, there's tons if you are open-minded enough to read it, but I guess it takes skill to use Google nowadays, doesn't it? 😄
Hey! There is a fully a fair amount of evidence that ties certain foods to a flare up of rosacea. Whilst it may not ‘cure’ it as such, you can keep it in control. In fact the ‘rosacea’ diet became an odd celebrity diet trend to see improvements in your skin. There’s some really interesting videos on UA-cam about it, personal stories etc etc. The same with skincare, there’s enough evidence to suggest both can keep rosacea at bay, but not ‘cure’ as such
@@elian3084 Thank you for confirming you have zero evidence to your claims that dietary changes offer a permanent cure to rosacea.
I have rosacea and I noticed that cosrx centella really help of instantly reduced redness. Thank you for sharing this information with us. It really helpful
Yes even arsenic is "natural" Aveda used ragweed for many years in their shampoo to horrible results for many allergic to it.
exactly! its like when compan ies are still using spearmint in their 'narural' products! So potentially irritating on the skin!
My Rosacea trigger is spicy food and overexposure to the sun or just too much heat in general.
Topical treatments from your GP/doctor for reducing the effects of Rosacea are the pits and severely dry your skin out and they also reek.
The problem I have is I like the occasional spicy food, so I have to be prepared for my Rosacea to go mental within a 24 hour period and can last for a good few days, as and when I eat anything spicy.
I try to avoid spicy food if at all possible and find flavour alternative foods that don't make it feel like I'm missing out. My skin is very happy for this.
Rosacea is an incurable skin condition which is most commonly hereditary.
My Rosacea is limited, at present to a small area of the left cheek (near to the nose) and pretty much the whole of the right cheek; weird I know. That said, it could be far worse. It isn't...yet! I have noticed, on the right side, that the Rosacea is moving upward toward the side of the right eye. Marvellous!
So thankful I had a dad who raised me proper.
This is THE video I was waiting for ! Thank you James ! Greetings from Paris
I have really sensitive, red, oily, acne-prone skin, and I also deal with fungal acne all over my face and body, and if that's not enough I suffer with huge pores, hyperpigmentation and eczema as well. Literally the worst skin type to ever exist in the history of skin types!!
😥
New sub, after searching for makeup to cover my Rosacea. I am so sick of the "Your face is so red" comments that I occasionally receive. Some of the products that I see in this video would seriously leave my sensitive skin even more irritated but everyone's skin reacts differently. Thank you for addressing this issue. I do have a question: I want to use a simple makeup that would cover the redness What do I look for at a store such as CVS or Walgreens? How do I choose the Correct Color so that it looks right? I wish that I could find a empathetic person around here that could show me what to do in person and help me find the right products....Thank you!
Heyyyyy!! Thanks for subscribing. Okay so I have no idea about makeup! I do know you can buy green ‘colour corrector’ and that’s made to hide red, you can then put makeup over that. My brother is a makeup artist (robert welsh on UA-cam or Robertwlsh on Instagram) and he’ll be able to help you more with picking a colour etc! ☺️🙏🏼
@@JamesWelsh thank you so much just subbed to your brother! 👍
@@Scott-gn8yo I would recommend the Dr Jart Cicapair colour correcting treatment cream.
I use Loreal Magic Skinbeautifier BB anti-rednesd cream. It has a green tint and neutralizes the red and acts like a light foundation coverage.
After watching this video I went to put my gel moisteriser on.... to sooth my red face... it was my gel moisteriser causing my red face... binned it... and covered my face in chilled fresh aloe gel to calm my face down...
I started having rosacea in my 20's and its honestly the worst. Sometimes even just washing my face and my hands being naturally warm, makes my face red. Not to mention in the summer theres just no hope at all lol. I've tried so many different things and I feel like half of the time if I just don't wash my face, it looks its best. It's so weird.
I've noticed the same thing! I stopped all products and I'm managing my stress better and I've gotten soooooo much less red. The only thing is I really need to start wearing sunscreen, but I'm terrified whichever I try will either irritate my skin or make me feel like a ball of grease if not both. I'm 17 but I've been suuuuper red in the face for about 2 years now, it really takes a blow to my self-esteem. I relate so harddd :((
@@lovingheize The only sunscreen I can use is Neutrogena's ultra sheer. It's the only kind that won't burn my skin, which is weird because its supposed to protect it, right? I haven't really noticed a difference in the redness though, but hopefully we'll get there!
@@synth648 Hoping we get some progress soon, it sure sucks when what's meant to be good for you is bad. Also thanks, I might try that sunscreen! :)
@@lovingheize no problem! Hope you like it :)
Erborian CC RED CORRECT is not cheap buy it at Ulta when they have their yearly Half-price sale . It is worth every penny can be used by both men and women knocks out the redness makes your skin look fabulous and it is actually soothing at the same time.
During winters ,specially in Jan and feb my skin(cheeks) turns red and inflamed, and flackey and dry,itchy I can even wash my face becoz I'm scared that my face wash make it worse😭😭😭 what should I do
I'd try cleaning oils or balms for washing your face, that helped me a lot. See if that's already enough for you, you don't necessarily need to do a second cleanse. If I do, I use Bioderma micellar water and rinse that off afterwards as well. Then I start my usual routine. I dont clean my face in the morning, just splash with water as otherwise it would be too drying
This is crazy! I started to get redness on my cheeks this week and u came out with this video today! YAY
A really good video :)
I also have problems with redness and irritated skin on my forehead. It's really frustrating to find the right products for my dry and oily skin, but i will try out some of the products you mentioned.
Greetings from Germany ;)
Hello, i have been trying different products for redness. Lab Series Future Rescue Serum is the best so far. It cures my redness instantly.
Took me a while to realize he said "abmornality." (but i could be wrong hehehe)10:43 It's funny in the most endearing kind of way. Just like how people say "emeny" rather than enemy.
I was diagnosed with rosacea tish year in May and the doctor prescribed me Lactoferrin based pills(Lactiferon Derma), a Bioderma AR BB cream(obsessed with it btw) and an ivermectin cream(Soolantra) to use for PM. After 4 months I had switched to Niacinamide 10% with Azelaic acid and keeping the ivermectin cream. The redness has reduced but I still have some small spots like brown freckles, but I manage to cover them up with the Bioderma AR BB cream. And of course I use daily SPF for indoor and outdoor as well(Anthelios Spray SPF 50). Hope this would help anybody.
I love your channel and all your insights🤗 Keep rocking and stay safe😍

You did it again!! Such awesome content love love every video. Can Sunday come faster please!? Sending you blessings and hugs!!
thank yoouuuuuuuu x
Thank you for making this video. I have acne rosacea and it`s a struggle..
Ive had rosacea for many years. Diet is definitely one key to keep your face from being so inflamed. Eating healthy helped a lot. I dont touch my face at all and dont let other go near my face either. I got rosacea due to sun exposure. I used to live in the cold, northern climates for most of my life and then moved straight to the most dry, hot part of the U.S; Phoenox, Arizona. I never wore sunscreen and always went swimming all day every day, getting sunburnt on my face all the time. I REGRET IT SO MUCH. I still havent found a good suncreen that doesnt flare up my skin amd give me ance/blisters. I use a product called Prosacea, its homeopathic and has calmed my face a whole ton. I use it every time i wash my face
u r good at expressing clear ideas 🦉
My mom has rosacea and lately it has been affecting her self esteem. I've been trying to find products that might help her.
Watching this with my flushed, blotchy skin after flubbing my cleansing 😭
people always ask me why am I so red when I don't wear makeup and it really annoys me
That rice toner is da bomb
Thanks for sharing! 🤗 I do have to say that I've used COSR Centella Blemish Cream and it made my face itch like crazy! 😱 Think it's the tea tree oil. I got very sensitive skin and mild rosacea so it's really problematic to find products that wont make my face look like a stop sign 🤣🛑
Forgot to mention that if you got sensitive/reactive/rosaeca skin you should look up the ingredients in products before you buy 👍 There are some websites to do this on. And the ingredient list may be different from region to region. Btw the Blue toner mentioned in this video got ethanol (alcohol) in it as nr 3 ingredient, which is not suitable for sensitive skin 🛑
what cleanser do u use for rosacea
@@syifashah1386 I use Paulas Choice Defense Gel to Cream cleanser and CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser. They both work well on my skin 😊👍
Try having rosecea and lupus rash. When I tell you facial pain get bad it’s gets bad. I had to go through skin biopsies to map out which cells were rosecea and which were lupus rash. I need to get rid of the dead spider veins on my cheeks I hate them and I don’t know how to get rid of them other then what I have been doing which is microneedlying which seems to break them down and get reabsrbed. It I have hit a platue on some of them and I’m afraid I need laser.CBD oil is the only thing that calms down the redness in lupus flare day’s. I only use josiemaran products so I was so happy to see her drop a CBD line
Honestly i always loved red skin especially on the cheeks but rn after watching so many videos and comments about how people don't like that redness and rn i don't find em pretty too 😒🤧
You have gorgeous skin, James.
My face feels like it's burning now. Prolonged exposure to warm environments cause my face to go red, even with little to no anxiety. When I go red I feel defeated and my work performance decreases.
I like my baths to be boiling hot. Lukewarm just isn’t comfy. I get cold and uncomfortable I want to feel wrapped in a blanket of warmth.
Thanks man hug from italy 🇮🇹
You From itly??
I don't know how to treat this problem and it has been with me for YEARS, I almost ALWAYS have red rose-like patches down on my cheeks and when I sweat they get even redder
James, don't you think we are depending on these chemical products so much? Am feeling that.. so am trying to avoid too many products on my skin.. less is more!
What do u say?
Hey! I don't think so no. There's this idea that synthetic ingredients are bad for the skin and that natural skincare is better and its just not true.
As far as 'less is more'....it can be! It depends on your own skin :) Some people don't need to /want to do do more than one step in there routine and thats fine as long as their skin is okay with that! But i always use exercise as an example.....if you go running for 15 mins 3 times a week...you'll be healthy. But if you go to the gym 5 days a week, for an hour each time, do cardia and weights, your results are going to be a lot more obvious and you'll most likely have the body of your dreams!
So like skincare....you get out, what you put in, in the majority of cases :)
Also, our skin actually needs a lot of ingredients that are currently in skincare. For example, AHA's help with moisture retention whilst Hyaluronic Acid (our skin creates this naturally) can be used as a serum to help people with dry, damaged or dehydrated skin. So depends on each person and what their own specific skin is craving :)
@@JamesWelsh appreciate your reply ☺☺
Sometimes I feel that I haven't found the right products for my skin care... So I don't miss your videos ☺☺
ahhh it takes such a long time to find the right products haha took . me yearrssss but always on the lookout for new ones :P
James, you look nice in this video. Hair and skin are perfect, very handsome.
Hi James, can you please make a video explaining AHA, BHA, Glycolic acid. Their uses, effects on skin, products, etc.? Thanks.
hey! I have a video about these! I discuss them all in my exfoliation video :) you'll find it in my skincare 101 playlist
I have rosacea and my skin reacts to most flare up triggers, I've recently been using Burts Bees Brightening Dailey facial cleanser, as well as Clinique's Clarifying lotion twice a day daily exfoliator and they've made a difference in my skin :)
My Rosacea is PERMANENT. I have visible small blood vessels on my cheeks. It's horrible. I'm going to try a Niacinimide Serum & see if that helps a bit. My skin is not bumpy in the slightest--just the redness. Is always worse in summer months since temperature DOES affect it. The only trigger I have in making it worse temporarily is exercise. My skin becomes hot & flushed. Don't give up, guys, you can treat it. I know it's trial & error but be patient & find what helps for you!
Any update
Rosacea is from dietary intolerances. Look up “amines intolerance” if you have red face or flushing.
Hey! Yeah that’s one of the many ‘possible causes’. Amines intolerance is usually linked more to eczema though
Please, can you do a video for rosacea and dehydrated skin? It would help me a lot!
Im ugly as shit, and this is so overwhelming
I’ve had rosacea for my whole life but, have recently been diagnosed with OCULAR rosacea. Have you ever experienced this?
Me over here i was born with red cheeks and forehead but its was to go aways as i grow up its still here!!
If you still have red cheeks, it can just be your natural complexion. Nothing wrong with it!
Rosacea starts at 9:25 FYI ^^ thank you
Thx
Really wanted to love the missha essence but unfortunately it seems to be breaking me out! Maybe my skin is too sensitive and reacts to fermented ingredients :(
I have rosacea and can’t use exfoliants or toners at all and very rarely I use soap free cleansers. I use fragrance free moisturiser and cool water to rinse my face most of the time and rarely wear makeup because most brands hurt my skin. I’m trying to get in to see a dermatologist but funds are low at the moment so it’s difficult.
Tone down rosacea with clay and lemon
Clay is renowned for skin benefits. The clayey water could, in particular, attenuate, more or less strongly, the marks of rosacea

Amazing content.
As many of you I am always red / flushed. I look like my face was put on the oven and taking out after a month. This always happens when I am at work ( go figure )
I was doing some research and my Dermatologist asked me if I was using products on my skin. Told him everything I was using and when I told him I was also using chemicals sunscreen he stopped me and said that’s what’s causing your face to turn so red.
He gave me a whole explanation about chemical sunscreen, but long story short, as amazing as they are ( chemical sunscreen ) they are bad for rosacea.
As of right now on the hunt for a good physical sunscreen so if anyone knows please please please let me know.
Hello! I might be a bit late, but I’ve been on the hunt recently for a good mineral sunscreen, since chemical sunscreens irritate my skin. I really like the Salt & Stone spf 50 sunscreen lotion. Fragrance free and hydrating.
Hi there!
Could make a video talking about a skincare routine having eczema?
Damn you know your shit. Thank you so much. I have red blotchy skin that comes and goes. When it gets bad it gets real itchy and red. Going to use your tips.
Most of the products for rosacea that you recommed I can not find where I live😢
Oh I guess I should say that I was diagnosed 20 years ago with a moderate case of rosacea and I am red over my entire face. I now believe I am blessed with oily skin which I used to think was a curse. I only wash my face once a day but I double cleanse and use the Klairs Supple preparation Unscented toner and I switch off with the rice bran toner. I’m extremely disappointed that my favorite skin care brand I believe sold of my favorite line of theirs So once I use up their products I have to find something else.Anyway I am almost 60 and people Guess my age at 35 to 42 so somethings working.
Best video ever!
glad you liked it!!!
My cheeks are always red I always have dark spots under my eyes my skin is dry
***help***
Yoshikage Kira samee and I’m girll😢😢😢
I’m right behind you 😭 my face changed a lot
Amazing! Thank you so much for making this video! I just bought 2 of the products u recommended...I’m already using some of the others thanks to you. I really needed this video. Thank you!
I also wanted to mention that I have been doing light therapy with a light from smarterlights. I’m using the dual care red and amber light. It really helps with inflammation plus helps collagen production. Also a new fav is honevo kanuka honey mask that I use nightly and it’s helped with redness and inflammation tremendously. It’s a pharmaceutical grade honey and is proven to help redness and rosacea. Thanks again!
Missha is making my face super red!! What else can I try??
