How does your pore get blackheads
Hi
Thank you for your question
Couperose is a type of rosacea in which dilated red blood vessels are visible on the face due to poor elasticity of the capillary walls. It causes permanent redness and is sometimes accompanied by sensations of heat, burning or tingling.
Although this condition is often due to hereditary factors, like skin that is structurally thin and sensitive there’s also several external factors that can trigger symptoms. For example rapid temperature changes, harsh wind, sun exposure, stress, and the consumption of spices, very hot foods, alcohol or tobacco.
Often structural changes of ageing skin can contribute to couperose skin.
You can improve the condition of your skin by changing some habits and choosing appropriate skin-care products. Since couperose can increase skin sensitivity, it’s important that you use a soap free cleanser like the QV Gentle Wash means you can cleanse without stripping the skin of its natural protective barrier. You can also try the QV Intensive Moisturising Cleanser.
