Taking care of your skin can sometimes be a challenge. Add to it something like rosacea, and now the challenge seems impossible. Through some great home remedies, you may be able to be the victor in the rosacea challenge.
Below is a list of 7 ways you can try to fight against rosacea and win.
1.Chamomile.
Chamomile is a natural anti-inflammatory, so ‘‘Top 10 Home Remedies’’ recommends making a cold compress by placing 3 to 6 tea bags in 3 cups of boiling water for 10 minutes. Remove the bags and put the tea in the refrigerator to chill. Once the tea is completely cold, soak a washcloth in the tea and wring it out. Place the cloth on the affected area for 15 minutes. Do this three to four times a day until you see an improvement.
2. Oatmeal.
Another oldie but goodie, oatmeal is another anti-inflammatory and soothes the skin. ‘‘One Good Thing’’ says to take 1/2 cup of ground oats and mix it with 1/4 cup of water to make a paste. Put the paste on the rosacea and let it sit for 20 minutes before gently wiping off with a warm, wet cloth.
3. Cucumber.
You can make a soothing cucumber mask from 1 peeled, pureed cucumber and 1 egg white, blended together. Place the mask on your face for 30 minutes and then gently rinse it off.
