Rosacea is a common and difficult-to-treat disease that affects many people. In this article, you will find an effective and tested program for effectively counteracting the manifestations of rosacea, using natural cosmetic products.
One of the most common skin conditions today is rosacea. Many have experienced the discomfort of a very red face – especially in the area of and around the nose, as well as the cheeks.
What exactly is rosacea?
It is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by recurrent reddening skin reactions characteristic of the initial stages of the affliction. In the later stages, the redness becomes permanent, accompanied by the presence of papules and pustules (skin inflammations), the turgor changes, the skin becomes thickened, dry and scaly.
Factors for the appearance of rosacea
Dysbacteriosis in the intestines is considered to be the main and triggering factor, and some foods and drinks are an activating factor for aggravating the problem. Climatic changes also affect the condition of the skin: strong sun, wind, cold, polluted air, etc.
Hormonal disturbances in women can also be the cause.
Even a person’s emotional state is thought to have a connection to the flare-up of rosacea. For example, when we feel strong anger or shame, this can trigger certain mechanisms in the skin, which will increase its redness.
Given the direct connection of the gut microbiome with skin diseases especially rosacea, it is good to consult a gastroenterologist, who will order the necessary tests in this direction.
Exclusion of spicy foods, hot foods, black tea, and alcohol, as well as avoiding strong sun, cold, and wind would alleviate the condition. Taking foods that improve intestinal peristalsis, probiotics, vitamins – C, A, and E, zinc, and selenium, in long-term intake, will certainly also improve the skin’s condition in rosacea.
Adequate skin care in the presence of rosacea is also key.
An effective skin care program for rosacea
Methods to relieve rosacea symptoms and help with treatment include:
Proper cleaning
It is important to clean the skin with a suitable mild soap, preferably unscented and without synthetic ingredients, which gently removes impurities and at the same time does not dry out the skin. This step is important if you use make-up or after spending a long time outdoors. For lighter dirt, you can continuously pour the face with water from the tap, then clean it with floral water.
Adequate protection
Use 100% natural, pure, organic products containing extracts of zdravetz, chamomile, yarrow, lavender, and calendula.
Day care
Zdravetz Essential oil – 10% in jojoba, Zdravetz Fluid and Zdravetz floral water.
Step 1: Wash with water only, then wipe the face with Zdravetz Floral Water. The water from Zdravetz cleanses the skin of excess fat released during the night, tones and prepares it for the next product.
Step 2: Apply Zdravetz essential oil. It acts as an SOS serum for problem areas – where the redness is strongest. The oil has powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, prevents the appearance of pimples, activates the natural protective processes in the skin, supports immunity, and reduces its reactivity. The oil also has a natural UV factor, which protects against the harmful rays of the sun.
Step 3: Place a few drops of Zdravetz fluid all over the face, around the eyes, neck, and décolleté. The active ingredients in the fluid have pronounced protective properties, protect cells from oxidation, hydrate, and help build a strong hydro-lipid barrier. Thus, the skin is better protected from external influences. It activates cell metabolism, the skin is visibly healthier and more elastic.

Aromatherapy products have a direct impact on emotions and specifically on stress. With inhalation, the aroma enters the brain through the olfactory system. In this way, the aromatic molecules exert a subtly harmonizing effect on the mind, body and emotions. The negative effects of daily stress are reduced, with which the reactivity of the skin is also relieved, known with them. Thus, in a way that we are not aware of, aromas selectively influence various processes in the body. The skin, as the largest organ in the human body, reflects this positive influence.
