Do You Have Rosacea?If your skin has been very red and broken lately, but it doesn't
seem like regular acne, you may have rosacea, a skin condition that
usually occurs in the late 20s or early 30s and affects both women
and men. It's most common in fair skinned people, and is often
mistaken for sensitive skin. Rosacea's symptoms include broken
capillaries, redness on the cheeks, nose and forehead, and
acne-like lesions that don't clear with normal topical acne
treatments. Like many skin ailments, rosacea is due in part to
lifestyle influences. Stress, hormonal fluctuations and food can
all cause flare-ups. Stay away from wine and excessively spicy
foods, which can intensify the redness. Sun exposure, stress and
temperature extremes will also exacerbate the condition, so wear
sunscreen if you're going to be outdoors and try to eliminate
excess stress from your life if possible.
