Common Cold

A cold is not confined to sneezing and a blocked nose. It also affects the skin: dryness, redness, irritation around the nose, chapping... The mucous membranes and the skin barrier are severely tested. Adopting the right care can limit these discomforts and maintain comfortable skin despite the illness.

FAQ about common cold

Why does a cold dry out the skin?

Fever and the friction from tissues weaken the skin barrier around the nose, which tends to dry out the skin.

How to prevent redness around the nose during a cold?

Using a moisturising balm, soft tissues, and taking care not to exert strong pressure when blowing your nose can help avoid redness around the nose in case of a cold.

Can a cold worsen rosacea?

Yes, inflammation and repeated nose rubbing can trigger rosacea flare-ups.

Are aloe vera sprays beneficial for a cold?

By moisturising the mucous membranes, aloe vera sprays can help prevent skin dryness associated with the common cold.

Can we exfoliate our skin during a cold?

This is possible, but it is advisable to use gentle exfoliants such as PHAs, and to avoid the nasal area, which is already delicate.
