How to Get Rid of Redness on Face Skin

Posted on 20 Aug, 2020


Skin redness can be stressful, irritating and distracting, but it is not always reason for concern. Though redness on the skin is quite common, there are a wide variety of potential causes. Many times, the skin becomes red or flushed when blood rushes to the surface to provide healing or as a natural response to physical or emotional exertion. Minor skin conditions include acne, rosacea, eczema, dilated blood vessels, broken capillaries, lupus and hormonal hot flashes.

In addition to pre-existing skin conditions, redness or flushing can also be attributed to outside stimuli such as:

  • Bacteria
  • Extreme temperatures
  • Sweating
  • Sunburn
  • Excess alcohol
  • Stress

Natural irritants, such as Poison Ivy Allergic reactions to soap, fragrances and man-made materials such as latex

Products to Reduce Redness on Face

When reducing redness on your face, consider a complete skincare routine targeted at the various aspects of the irritation. We suggest a skincare routine that includes a cleanser, toner, serum and/or oil with a moisturizer to complete. An intensive mask is also a helpful option, though not recommended for daily use.

Cleanser to Reduce Redness on Face

Cleaning the facial skin is always the first step in a customized skincare routine as bacteria on the skin can lead to flare ups. Our Pure Skin Face Cleaner is gentle, fragrance free and effectively removes makeup while leaving skin soft and supple. This cleanser is infused with a powerful Botanical Antioxidant blend, which helps safeguard skin against environmental aggressors while also calming irritated skin. This non-stripping, pH-balanced formula works to maintain skin's natural acidity and helps reduce redness, never leaving skin feeling tight or dry.

Redness Relieving Toner

Though facial toner is an often-overlooked step in many skin care routines, our customers find that Ultra Repair Wild Oat Hydrating Toner is the perfect second step to soothe and balance your skin. Oat milk, colloidal oatmeal and wild oats are combined with Honey and Hyaluronic Acid to help soothe and moisturize skin while relieving redness. Even red, sensitive skin is left calm and prepped to absorb oils, serums or moisturizers.
