rosacea
as common as it is unknown...
 Affecting
one in twenty adult Americans, rosacea is one of the most common
dermal disorders. Yet almost 80% of the people suffering from this
type of skin sensitivity do not know anything about the disease.
Rosacea occurs after the age of 30 and is most common in people of
Celtic origin. It affects more women than men, though men are more
likely to develop some of the severe forms of the disease, such as
rhinophyma.
The features of rosacea are skin redness and swelling
(edema), the appearance of broken blood vessels (telangiectases),
and sometimes
acne-like papules and pustules. One or all of these features may
be present and can affect the forehead, cheeks, nose and occasionally
the eyes. In advanced stages, rosacea can also cause an overgrowth
of the connective tissue of the nose resulting in rhinophyma (a
well known case is the late actor W.C. Fields). The disease is
chronic, lasting for years with episodes of activity (flare ups)
present for periods of variable length.
what causes rosacea and how can it be avoided?
Based on medical research, rosacea is a condition that involves both the
blood vessels and the skin. However, the causes of rosacea are
in fact still unknown. Lifestyle factors known to be associated
with rosacea - such as
alcohol consumption, sun exposure and caffeine - do not cause
the disease but may activate an outbreak of it.
Among the most common food triggers
are cheese, vanilla, chocolate, alcohol,
spicy foods and hot beverages. And while alcohol and hot drinks
can be easily avoided, others are not so easy to avoid - such
as sunlight, cold
winds, certain drugs such as steroids, emotions such as stress
or embarrassment, menopausal symptoms, coughing, even exercise.
Still, avoiding as many of these
common triggering factors as possible can help to limit the unpleasant
symptoms.
how can it be treated?
There is no cure for rosacea but with the right treatment and lifestyle,
the condition can be brought under control and maintained indefinitely.
Scientists have observed that rosacea has a tendency to feed on
itself. Therefore, even the most successful treatment requires
maintenance. There
are wonderful organic herbs in many ilike organic skin care products
that will not just calm and reduce irritation but also contract
the blood vessels
to make your complexion return to a rosy - but healthy - look.
cleansing, toning and exfoliating - what a difference they make
The first step in treating your problematic skin is the introduction of
a regular and effective cleansing regime. Using the right combination
of cleanser and high potency cleansing concentrate from ilike organic
skin care - such as the Lemon Cleansing Milk and the anti-inflammatory
Mineral Cleansing
Concentrate, which is ideal for all types of sensitive skin, even
for rosacea - can help. While removing all make-up and environmental
pollution,
they
soften and gently eliminate the dead cells from the surface. Your
skin will be healthier, regain its ability to self-purify and will
not thicken allowing
skin care products to reach the deeper layers.
A toner full of
organic herbal extracts is essential after make-up removal to refresh
and tone your skin.
Try the balancing Rosehip Toner from ilike organic skin care.
If you really want an effective treatment, prepare your skin by dissolving the
keratin layer and loosening the unnecessarily thickened keratin
scales with an exfoliator. By doing so, the skin will be able to absorb the beneficial
ingredients of cosmetics. With the use of ilike's special
exfoliating
masks
such as our Rosehip Exfoliator, the skin can breathe more
freely and be more easily regenerated.
Depending on the condition
of your skin, an AHA peel could be appropriate. An ilike
organic skin care AHA Fruit Peel takes away the old,
dried keratin cells and prepares your skin to absorb other treatments.
It leaves your skin feeling young, beautiful and full of life.
With the help of our AHA products, available from a skilled aesthetician,
even
the most stubborn skin problems can be treated effectively.
proceeding when all is clear
Rosehip and products made of this herb are very beneficial for the treatment
of sensitive skin prone to rosacea. The Rosehip Whipped Moisturizer
from ilike
organic skin care hydrates and recharges the skin with vitamins,
reduces inflammation and controls the functioning of sebaceous
glands. Use our high concentration and deep penetrating Rosehip Serum to
contract the
blood vessels and sooth the skin in the mornings after washing
your face with the cleansing concentrate, before applying creams, or during
summertime
as a substitute for your moisturizer. As a regenerating mask
to be used once or twice a week, we recommend the ilike
organic skin care Rosehip Gel mask. Besides reducing inflammation,
vitalizing and strengthening, the mask also tightens and refreshes
the skin with its peppermint content. If your rosacea is accompanied by
spots,
use a drop of Herbal Clay Spot Treatment to cover those impediments
to beautiful skin.
Before considering any treatment, it is best to visit an ilike organic
skin care aesthetician. This beauty specialist, after diagnosing your skin type and condition, will apply the organic herbal products best suited for your skin. After the treatment you can even take these products home to maintain a long-lasting effect that is necessary to control rosacea.
