Rosacea – Symptoms, Causes and Natural Skincare

What is rosacea?

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterised by facial redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes small pus-filled bumps. It primarily affects the central part of the face and often appears in stages – from mild flushing to lasting changes in skin texture. Although persistent, with the right care and lifestyle adjustments, its symptoms can be successfully managed.

Rosacea or acne? How to tell the difference

The symptoms of rosacea are frequently confused with ordinary acne. Although they can look similar, the causes and approaches to relief are completely different. Here is how to recognise them:

Feature Rosacea
Acne
Type of redness General facial redness (diffuse), mainly on the cheeks and nose Localised around spots
Age of onset Can appear at any age, most commonly after 30 Predominantly during puberty
Blood vessels Visible capillaries (telangiectasia) Not a typical feature

🌟 Important: Our natural products are specially developed to soothe reactive skin, restoring a calm and healthy appearance to the face.

What are the main symptoms of rosacea?

The most common rosacea symptoms include episodes of sudden flushing, burning or stinging sensations. The skin is often dry and red on the cheeks. Small itchy spots with pus may appear. Fine capillaries are visible on the cheeks. In more advanced stages, rosacea of the nose may develop, where the skin becomes thicker. Rosacea occurs more frequently in women, people with fair skin, and those with a family history of the condition.

Early care is essential to prevent the condition from progressing.

What causes rosacea?

Although modern medicine is still researching the exact causes of rosacea, the condition is believed to arise from a combination of several key factors:

  • Genetic predisposition: It is often hereditary within families.
  • Environmental factors: Exposure to intense sun, wind or sudden temperature changes. Stress is also a major contributing factor.
  • Specific microorganisms: A reaction to microscopic mites that live on the skin.
  • Lifestyle: Consumption of alcohol and spicy foods, which dilate blood vessels. A significant proportion of people with rosacea also experience digestive issues.
  • Reaction to cosmetic products: Rosacea can appear or worsen due to unsuitable cosmetics. Although its onset is linked primarily to genetic factors and immune system responses, cosmetics are one of the main triggers for redness, burning and spots in rosacea.

Important clarification: Many people wonder, is rosacea contagious? The answer is a firm no. It is an individual response of the body and cannot be passed to another person through contact.

Diet for rosacea: Food as a factor

A suitable diet for rosacea is vital for managing the condition. Avoid spicy seasonings, hot drinks and alcohol – they dilate vessels and are primary causes of new flare-ups. Eat as cleanly as possible, with foods that your digestive system tolerates well, and drink sufficient water.


External protection:
Protect the skin from wind and strong sunlight to avoid worsening symptoms. Use products suited to your skin type that do not burden the skin or clog pores. Aggressive acids can also have a negative effect if used without the guidance of a specialist.

What products are not suitable for rosacea?

With rosacea, the skin barrier is severely compromised. Using aggressive ingredients can trigger immediate redness and lasting damage. Here is what to avoid:

  • Harsh exfoliants: Mechanical scrubs with large particles and strong acids (such as salicylic acid) are too abrasive for the delicate skin prone to rosacea.
  • Alcohol-based products: Toners and cleansers containing denatured alcohol dry out the skin and trigger inflammatory processes.
  • Strong fragrances and menthol: Artificial perfumes, menthol and camphor frequently cause burning and stinging on reactive skin.
  • Harsh sulphates (SLS/SLES): Strong cleansing agents strip the skin of its natural lipids, leaving it vulnerable.

Instead, opt for a minimalist approach such as our Organic Chamomile Water, which moisturises the skin without disturbing its balance.

"I have had a skin problem for 3 years. I visited dozens of dermatologists who prescribed all sorts of expensive products, none of which had any effect. I spent thousands on cosmetics and medication but nothing worked. I bought very expensive creams from renowned brands — still nothing! I had already given up hope. By chance I came across your advertisement and decided to give it a try. I simply have no words! A thousand thanks! Since using the chamomile water, my skin has completely recovered! Recovered! And I went through 3 years of ordeal! I am so happy that there are people who produce quality things!"
