beauty expert advice

Beauty expert Neeti Bharti says that people with rosacea should use any kind of skin care products on their skin before using and makeup on their skin type so that there is no harm. Avoid itching and scrubbing. Do not even exfoliate the face. This can damage your skin.

Use only fragrance free and mineral rich makeup on the skin. Apply makeup only when you feel very necessary. Try that the skin is always free. Neeti says that Aloe Vera is one such ingredient which is beneficial for all skin types. Apply aloe vera extract on the skin and wash off after sometime with cold water. In the summer season, massaging by applying aloe vera gel with ice 3 times for 5 minutes in 24 hours will give a lot of relief. Use herbal sunscreen.
