Blushing Books


Is there anything that could help my blushing?

Ive had alot of problems, im 18 and i cant even talk to anyone without blushing, ive read confidence books, done councilling, and its done nothing. I just want to be able to talk to a group of people, and go out like normal peolple do and have nothing to worry about, i dont want to think “oh god im going red” everytime someone talks to me, its worse when theres more that 2 people, Please HELPP!! Thankss

I used to be like that a few years ago (I’m 17 now) so I started using No7 Colour Calming make up base..
The green one to disguise redness..then wore a thick foundation on top to make sure.

So, whenever I could feel a random blush coming on, I knew that it wasn’t visible.
And becasue I knew no one could see it, it actually stopped over a period of time.

Its just psychological. I had it for years growing up, it was a bloody nightmare.
Especially in school…

I’m so amazed its gradually disappeared now over time and I’ve gained confidence

Although becasue I’m really pale, it’d make it much more noticeable.. And you know when you break out in a blush for no apparent reason, then someone goes, why are you going red.. blah blah blah you know the story, it gets worse.. then my face literally burns up and stays red hot for about an hour.
Ergh it was horrible.
I tried everything but nothing worked apart from using the colour calming base and foundation and telling yourself, SO WHAT IF IM BLUSHING, no one can see it! Then you get used to it, and a few months later it should calm down x

1.    Areas of redness on your face

2.    Small red bumps or pustules on your nose, cheeks, forehead, and/or chin

3.    Small blood vessels on your nose and/or cheeks (called telangiectasia)

4.    Tendency to flush or blush

Causes of Rosacea

A number of factors that can trigger rosacea have been identified. Some of these factors include:

1.    Certain foods or drinks (e.g. spicy foods, alcohol)

2.    Low levels of stomach acid

3.    Constipation

4.    Hormonal imbalance

5.    Nutritional deficiencies (especially of B vitamins)

6.    Certain medications (e.g. Corticosteroids, drugs that dilate blood vessels, including some blood pressure medications)

7.    Temperature extremes

8.    Sunlight

Diet for Rosacea

Diet rich in vitamin A, vitamin B complex, vitamin C and zinc is highly recommended for reducing and removing Rosacea skin eruptions by facilitation the process of healing by strengthening the blood capillaries and boosting the immune system. Omega 3 fatty acids found in flaxseed oil and fish oils are also beneficial for skin.

Besides, restrict the consumption of alcoholic and caffeinated beverages as they tend to aggravate Rosacea. It has been observed that dairy products (except cottage cheese) and foods like spinach, eggplant, avocado, red plum, raisins, figs, yeast extract etc can also trigger Rosacea in certain individuals.

Home Remedies

1.    Beta-carotene, which the body uses to make vitamin A, helps to strengthen capillaries and is healing for the skin. Take 25,000 international units twice daily.

2.    The B vitamins, especially vitamin B2 (riboflavin), are necessary for healthy skin, hair, and nails. Take a vitamin-B complex containing 100 milligrams of most of the major B vitamins daily.

3.    Vitamin C raises immunity, promotes healing, and strengthens connective tissue. Bioflavonoids are anti-inflammatory and help to strengthen blood vessels, and work with vitamin C. Take 500 milligrams of vitamin C with bioflavonoids three times a day

4.    Zinc also helps to heal the skin. Take 25 milligrams twice a day, with meals and with 1 milligram of copper.

5.    Flaxseed oil supplies essential fatty acids that help to reduce inflamma tion. Take 1,000 milligrams or 1 teaspoon three times a day

Prevention tips for Rosacea

1.    Eat a diet that emphasizes raw vegetables and grains, organically grown if possible.

2.    Avoid fats, especially saturated fats, and all animal products. Saturated fats promote inflammation. Also avoid alcohol, caffeine, cheese, chocolate, cocoa, dairy products, eggs, fat, fish, salt, sugar, and spicy foods.

3.    As much as possible, avoid wearing makeup. If you do use cosmetics, choose all-natural, water-based products.

4.    Friction is extremely irritating, so avoid wearing tight clothing such as turtlenecks that can rub against the skin. Be careful about anything that comes close to or into contact with your face. Even holding the telephone receiver against your face for a while can raise the local temperature and irritate sensitive skin.
