FAQ about redness

Can diet cause redness?

Can stress cause redness?

Yes, by causing an increase in cortisol levels, stress accelerates blood circulation, which visually manifests as redness.

When should you consult a dermatologist for redness?

If redness persists, is accompanied by itching, pain or other skin changes, or if it affects your quality of life, it is recommended to consult a dermatologist.

Are certain phototypes more prone to redness than others?

Indeed, individuals with fair skin blush more easily, due to the significant contrast between the skin colour and the underlying blood vessels.

Can redness be linked to hormonal issues?

Yes, hormonal fluctuations, such as those associated with pregnancy for instance, can cause redness in the skin due to changes in blood circulation.

Are redness always synonymous with rosacea?

No, redness can also simply be related to emotions, heat, allergies, or irritations.

Which active ingredients are renowned for combating redness?

Niacinamide, azelaic acid, Centella asiatica and bisabolol help to reduce redness.

Can cold weather exacerbate redness?

Can makeup conceal redness?

Yes, green concealers, whether used alone or in combination with foundations, allow for the redness to be concealed.

Are laser treatments effective against persistent redness?

Yes, by directly targeting the dilated blood vessels, the laser can reduce redness.
