I’ve written about Rosacea plenty of times – ingredients to avoid, the effects of diet, environmental triggers etc.
But the message is far more interesting coming from Rosacea sufferers themselves.
According to the National Rosacea Society, 41% of 1,066 patients surveyed said that certain skincare products aggravated their condition.
Here are the top 6 skincare ingredients to avoid based on their reactions:
1. 66% said Alcohol
2. 30% said Witch Hazel
3. 30% said Fragrance
4. 21% said Menthol
5. 14% said Peppermint
6. 13% said Eucalyptus
Do you agree? Have you ever experienced a Rosacea or redness flare after using products containing any of these ingredients?
Would love to hear your thoughts!
