10 Rosacea Remedies & Treatments

Wash with Cleansers

Wash those areas which are susceptible to rosacea with a gentle cleanser can also prevent flare-ups and reduce the risks of infection or breakouts by clearing virus and bacteria from the skin. Make sure the chosen product comes with a neutral level of PH and is allergy-tested and fragrance-free. Wash with the fingertips and do not use a sponge or washcloth because it might irritate the skin. To prevent stripping and flushing the skin, also make sure to rinse with warm water. Also, do a patch test before starting to ensure that you do not have any reaction to the cleanser. Avoid mechanical, harsh scrubbing. Go for liquid facial cleansers, cleansing bars, beauty bars, and non-detergent cleansers. [4]
