Sensitive skin prone to couperose and rosacea

Sensitive redness on the cheeks or early signs of couperose?

Rosy cheeks may make you think of a fresh and healthy complexion, but the reality can be quite different: small visible blood vessels make your cheeks and the area around your nose appear red. You may also notice dryness and tightness. Sometimes you may even experience burning, itching, raised bumps, and patches. Your skin's protective layer is visibly under attack. And the culprit is couperose or rosacea.

Dr. Hauschka offers natural remedies for skin that blushes.

If you suffer from couperose or rosacea, there is one thing your body needs above all: a skincare routine that accompanies treatment, supports your skin, and helps it regain its natural balance. Our cosmetic products help you take care of yourself from the inside out, so your skin can take the necessary time to renew itself. To achieve this, we combine nature with state-of-the-art technology.

We are pioneers in natural cosmetics, plant enthusiasts, and passionate researchers. Our formulas use the finest natural ingredients and medicinal plants. And for your skin condition, the key ingredients are rose, lady's mantle, and St. John's wort.

How to distinguish couperose from rosacea?

Both begin with redness on the cheeks and around the nose. Small red or blue capillaries become visible due to clogged blood vessels. In couperose, the redness is often only temporary at first. It may appear when you return from a walk on a cold winter day, after spending time in a hot sauna, or when you eat something very spicy. It may even appear if you drink an extra cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of red wine in the evening. Perhaps you are experiencing a period of stress, or the cosmetic products you are using are not suitable for you. All these factors can cause these small capillaries to remain visible for longer. Over time, your skin becomes drier and more sensitive, leading to tightness, burning, and perhaps even an itching sensation.

With rosacea, the redness is usually constant from the beginning. Initially, the nose and cheeks are most commonly affected. Later, the redness can spread to the forehead and other areas. Gradually, pimples and inflamed spots appear on the red patches. If the affected skin is not treated, the sebaceous glands can enlarge. The skin becomes rough, and the eyes can become dry and irritated. In men, the nose often takes on a characteristic bulging shape. Anyone suffering from rosacea should be treated by a dermatologist. However, it is also beneficial to use appropriate cosmetics for the skin, along with specialized treatment.

Tips for sensitive skin

• More protection, please! There are days when your skin needs a little extra care and security. Perhaps heat, cold, or sun have left their mark, or stress has deprived you of sleep. That's when our soothing face masks come to the rescue. Our Radiance Mask is particularly effective in supporting the skin's ability to retain moisture itself.
• Multi-layered protection? Or is just a day cream or lotion enough? When you choose one of our Day Lotions, your skin gets all the nourishing care it needs. Our lotions provide long-lasting hydration and protect the skin throughout the day. Therefore, there is usually no need to apply an additional cream.
• That sun-kissed effect – whenever you want Our Tinted Day Cream gives that radiant, beachy glow. If you need a little more coverage, we recommend Dr. Hauschka foundations. They also help retain moisture in the skin. You can conceal areas of redness with our Concealers.

Certified natural care – from head to toe

What does body care have to do with face care? More than you think! We see the human being as a whole, not as separate parts. And we know that when you take care of your body, it also reflects on your face. And here, the specific type of dry skin matters:

If your skin has difficulty producing enough moisture, we recommend completing your morning or evening beauty routine with a body oil warmed in your hands. The nourishing Rose Body Oil and the Soothing Lavender and Moor Body Oil are particularly suitable for this care step. They give the skin the feeling of comfort it needs to recover from the day's activities and stresses.

Our medicinal plants for sensitive facial skin.

Extracts from medicinal plants are the basis of all Dr. Hauschka skincare products. They provide impulses that stimulate the skin's own powers – precisely in the areas where support is needed.
