However, this can be better controlled with the right skincare and a conscious lifestyle than you might think. Below, we show you the perfect evening routine for rosacea: In addition to suitable and proven products that actually help your skin, you will also find some additional tips to help you keep your skin under control!

THE Doctor Mi! EVENING ROUTINE FOR ROSACEA FOR A RESTFUL NIGHT

In addition to the right morning routine for rosacea, the appropriate evening routine is also crucial to properly care for your skin with rosacea. Here too, it is important to consciously avoid possible triggers of rosacea flare-ups and to strengthen your skin from within.

EVENING ROUTINE FOR ROSACEA: INDISPENSABLE FOR A HEALTHY COMPLEXION

Evening routines are fundamentally important for the skin, as it renews itself while you sleep. To best support skin affected by rosacea in particular, you can use targeted active ingredients and dosages that help you keep your skin balanced and avoid unnecessary irritation. You should consider the following tips before you start implementing your evening routine for rosacea.

DON'T GO TO SLEEP TOO LATE

To allow your skin to recover properly, you should especially provide enough sleep and rest for it in the case of rosacea. Between 7 and 8 hours are ideal to give it enough time for regeneration.

PAY ATTENTION TO THE RIGHT TEMPERATURE

Basically, do not use either hot or cold water. Instead, make sure that the water you use in your evening routine is lukewarm. This actively helps you avoid redness and swelling caused by temperatures that are too high or too low. You should also avoid sudden temperature changes, such as alternating showers, as well as hot baths or steam baths.

NO TO OILS & ARTIFICIAL FRAGRANCES

Artificial fragrances, as well as greasy skincare products, are unsuitable for rosacea. Therefore, you should definitely avoid using them. Important: Also keep this in mind when choosing your hair care products, because the substances can easily transfer from your hair to your face.

AVOID BLOOD CIRCULATION PROMOTING INGREDIENTS

Menthol, rosemary, eucalyptus, and a few others: substances that promote blood circulation are harmful to you if you have rosacea. Your skin is already very sensitive due to the inflamed skin cells and dilated blood vessels, which manifest as redness and visible veins. Substances that promote blood circulation only exacerbate this condition.

Tip: When choosing scented candles or room fragrances, also make sure that they do not contain any such substances. Very sensitive skin and skin affected by rosacea can also react to them.

USE TARGETED MASSAGE TECHNIQUES

If your skin is swollen, you can consciously and deliberately apply rosacea massage techniques to treat these swellings. This can achieve very good long-term results.

USE pH-NEUTRAL SKINCARE

To prevent your irritated skin from experiencing additional irritation, you should use only pH skin-neutral care products. Ordinary soaps, for example, have a pH value that is significantly higher than that of the skin. Such use results in additional irritation of the reddened and swollen rosacea skin and, for example, further depletes moisture from dry facial areas.

Good to know: Doctor Mi! medical skincare exclusively produces pH-neutral care products that have excellent skin compatibility, even with rosacea or couperose.

PAY ATTENTION TO A CONSISTENT CARE ROUTINE

To skillfully manage rosacea flare-ups, you should regularly care for your skin and remain disciplined in doing so. Otherwise, your skin condition can quickly deteriorate again. To ensure comprehensive well-being, it is important that you stick to your care routines.

THE Doctor Mi! EVENING ROUTINE FOR ROSACEA: THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT RIGHT

You should best implement your evening routine for rosacea with the help of the Doctor Mi!-ROSAZEA SETS and other products, such as PEEL. How to use the products correctly is explained below.

CLEAN

In the evening, apply a small amount of the gentle yet thorough CLEAN cleansing gel to your entire face. Massage it into your skin with damp hands in circular motions for 2–3 minutes. This even allows you to remove eyeshadow and the like from your eyes without an additional makeup remover. Use lukewarm water to wash your face.

TONE

Spray TONE, the mild facial toner from Doctor Mi! medical skincare, 2–3 times onto a cotton pad. Gently apply it to your face as well as your neck and décolleté. Avoid contact with your mucous membranes and also avoid the eye area. The highly concentrated AHA fruit acids reliably remove loosening skin flakes from your skin's surface.

NIGHT

Apply a small amount of the night care NIGHT to the face, neck, and décolleté and massage it in until fully absorbed.

ALTERNATIVE TO NIGHT: SUPER RED

Instead of NIGHT, after about 4 weeks you can also use SUPER RED, the Doctor Mi, once a week! Power complex with highly concentrated TECMi!® Retinol as a skin booster for a particularly effective overnight skin treatment. If very well tolerated, you can increase the application to up to 2-3 times per week. However, it should not be used more frequently than that.

DERMAROLLER

Both NIGHT and SUPER RED can be worked deeper into your skin with the DERMAROLLER, thereby maximizing the skin-renewing effects of both creams. Thanks to its antibacterial coating and optimal needle length, the DERMAROLLER is ideal for home use. By the way, it is also excellent for treating scar tissue. Important: Start gently and apply only light pressure at first. Also, use the DERMAROLLER for rosacea only every two weeks.

MASK

In cases of acute rosacea flare-ups and as needed, the use of MASK is recommended. Apply a hazelnut-sized amount evenly to your face and let the soothing face mask absorb for at least 15 minutes. Then rinse it off with lukewarm water.

FURTHER RECOMMENDATIONS FOR YOUR EVENING ROUTINE WITH ROSACEA

With the Doctor Mi! evening routine for the face, your skin is well cared for and ready for a restful night. The following tips will additionally help you avoid rosacea flare-ups in the evening.

HISTAMINE-FREE DIET IN THE EVENING

Histamines are a special form of proteins that are unsuitable for rosacea because they cause rosacea flare-ups. Unfortunately, there are quite a few foods that fall into this category: from fruits and vegetables to dairy and meat. By choosing low-histamine foods for your dinner, you promote the well-being of your skin and avoid any negative consequences in this regard.

AVOID ALCOHOL

Alcohol dilates the blood vessels, which can be fatal for rosacea. In particular, red wine contains a high amount of histamines and is therefore a very poor companion for your dinner. It's better to avoid it to prevent skin redness.

REDUCE SUGAR & CARBOHYDRATES

Carbohydrates sugar the skin cells, just like regular industrial or fruit sugar. Therefore, it is important that you do not consume too much of it. Try to eat more dishes that have a high content of proteins and fats to protect your skin.

Tip: Also pay attention to low-histamine foods in this case.

ENSURE RELAXATION

Stress is unhealthy, even for the skin. In the case of rosacea, it can even trigger flare-ups, causing skin redness and swelling. Therefore, it is all the more important that you avoid sources of stress. By practicing calmer forms such as Yin Yoga, doing mindfulness exercises, or finding other ways to relax, you are doing something good not only for yourself but also for your skin.
