Routine that soothes red and irritated skin and strengthens the skin barrier.
1.467,95 NOKRosacea is often triggered by factors such as sun, heat, stress and perfumed skin care products and manifests as recurring redness, a feeling of heat and sometimes a rash or visible blood vessels. The skin may feel sensitive, warm or tingly. The cause is inflammation in the skin, which leads to increased reactivity. Skincare that strengthens the barrier, moisturizes and reduces sensitivity can reduce redness and improve the appearance of the skin over time.
Rosacea-prone skin benefits from gentle skincare, free of perfume and unnecessary additives. A suitable skincare routine for rosacea-prone skin should include a cleanser that gently cleanses and moisturizes, a soothing and moisturizing cream that is not too oily/rich, and a concentrate that helps reduce redness and strengthens the skin barrier.
Rich, mild and moisturizing cleansing cream that, with the help of kaolin clay and skin's own oils, gently but effectively removes dirt and makeup without drying out the skin. For all skin types. 50ml
Moisturizer with ceramides, ectoine and soothing salt complex that soothes, moisturizes and reduces redness. For sensitive, red and irritated skin. 50ml
Concentrate with 10% azelaic acid, which helps balance bacteria that can cause acne and soothe red and irritated skin. 30ml
The key is to keep the routine simple, gentle and consistent. Cleanse the skin in the evening with a mild facial cleanser and use lukewarm, not hot, water, as heat can trigger redness. Follow with a soothing concentrate, such as Azelaic Concentrate, which helps to even out skin tone and reduce visible redness, and finish with a moisturizing face cream that helps strengthen the skin barrier.
When the UV index is above 2, sun protection is an important last step in your morning routine, as UV radiation is a common trigger. Skincare can help soothe rosacea-prone skin and support the skin barrier, but it does not treat rosacea. For more severe symptoms, we recommend consulting a doctor or dermatologist.
