Is age making my rosacea worse?

SkIN can become more sensitive and easily irritated with age, making redness worse, so it’s always worth looking out for formulas specially created to soothe and comfort skin. The new Phyto Corrective Masque (£52,

dermacaredirect.co.uk), with its oil-free formula and lightweight gel texture, reduces redness by 20 per cent.

Dr Andrew Weil For Origins MegaMushroom Skin Relief Soothing Treatment Lotion (£27.50, origins.co.uk), also instantly hydrates, soothes and boosts skin’s radiance. It rapidly penetrates to calm redness and reduce irritation.

And for a night cream, try La RochePosay Toleriane Ultra Overnight Care (left, now £13.12, boots.com). It helps to reduce sensitivity by inhibiting the skin’s inflammatory process as you sleep.
