Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition marked by persistent redness, visible vessels, sensitivity, and sometimes acne-like bumps, commonly on the cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead.

What causes rosacea flares?

Flares are linked to vascular instability and immune overactivity, triggered by diet (seed oils, alcohol, spicy foods, stimulants), dehydration and low minerals, environmental toxins, stress, and certain medications.

Which diet changes can help with rosacea?

Reduce processed foods and seed oils like soybean, corn, sunflower, safflower, canola, grapeseed, and cottonseed. Choose stable fats such as cold-pressed olive oil, coconut oil, ghee, pure raw butter, and grass-fed tallow.

How can lifestyle support rosacea-prone skin?

Prioritise hydration with trace minerals, use non-toxic home and self-care products, manage stress with rest, nature, and calming activities, and seek medical guidance regarding medications that may increase reactivity.

What lifestyle and environmental factors trigger rosacea?

Common rosacea triggers include processed foods and unstable seed oils, alcohol, spicy foods, and stimulants like coffee. External stressors such as pollution, synthetic chemicals, dehydration, and emotional stress can also worsen redness and sensitivity.

Can diet changes help control rosacea symptoms?

Yes. Avoiding inflammatory seed oils (soybean, corn, sunflower, safflower, canola, grapeseed, cottonseed) and replacing them with stable fats like cold-pressed olive oil, coconut oil, ghee, and grass-fed butter can reduce systemic inflammation and skin reactivity.

How does hydration affect rosacea-prone skin?

Dehydration weakens vascular stability and increases redness. Regular water intake, along with mineral support such as Celtic sea salt or trace electrolytes, helps strengthen the skin barrier and reduce flare frequency.

Which Matriskin products help calm redness and rebuild the skin barrier?

RL/3 Serum and RL/3 Cream restore lipids and calm reactivity; Power Defense Serum provides growth factors and marine antioxidants to repair stressed skin; and CR/7 Cream creates a soothing protective shield to reduce irritation and restore comfort.

Are Matriskin products safe for daily and year-round use?

Yes. All Matriskin formulas are non-photosensitising, contain no SPF filters or artificial fragrances, and can be used morning or evening throughout the year without disrupting the skin’s natural balance.

Rethinking Rosacea and Skin Sensitivity

Our Philosophy: Calming Skin Through Balance

Unlike many rosacea treatments that rely on aggressive actives or temporary cover-ups, Matriskin focuses on restoring stability at the barrier and vascular level. Our biotechnology-led formulas strengthen the skin’s natural defences, reduce reactivity, and support long-term resilience. Every product is designed for safe, daily use — year-round, morning or evening — without photosensitising ingredients or harsh cycles, keeping care simple, calming, and consistent.

Matriskin's Biotech Solution for Rosacea

Rosacea-prone skin needs barrier restoration, vascular support, and inflammation control without irritation. Matriskin formulas address these key needs:

Barrier reinforcement – RL/3 Serum and RL/3 Cream replenish essential fatty acids, ceramide precursors, and antioxidants to calm and protect.
Redness modulation – Niacinamide, vitamin E, and botanical antioxidants reduce reactivity and strengthen vascular integrity.
Collagen and hydration repair – Peptides, marine collagen, and hyaluronic acid restore firmness and water balance.

Second-skin protection – Polysaccharide matrices (Biosaccharide Gum-4) create a breathable shield, reducing exposure to environmental triggers.

Understanding Rosacea

What is rosacea? Symptoms, causes, and common triggers

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that often shows up as persistent redness, visible blood vessels, sensitivity, and sometimes acne-like bumps. It typically affects the cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead, and can flare unpredictably.

The underlying issue is vascular instability and immune overactivity, where blood vessels overreact to triggers and inflammatory cascades amplify redness and irritation. Rosacea-prone skin is often highly sensitive, with a compromised barrier that reacts strongly to environmental, dietary, and emotional stressors.

Rosacea — Triggers & Product Support

Lifestyle & Environmental Triggers

Rosacea flares are frequently linked to both internal and external factors. Identifying and moderating these is key to reducing recurrence:

Dietary triggers

Processed foods and seed oils (soybean, corn, sunflower, safflower, canola, grapeseed, cottonseed) increase systemic inflammation.
Healthier alternatives: cold-pressed olive oil, coconut oil, ghee, pure raw butter, and grass-fed, grass-finished tallow.
Alcohol, spicy foods, and stimulants (coffee, energy drinks) commonly induce flares.

Hydration & electrolytes

Insufficient water intake and lack of minerals weaken vascular and skin resilience. Support with daily hydration and trace minerals such as Celtic sea salt.

Environmental toxins

Use non-toxic self-care and home-care products to reduce chemical stress on reactive skin. Avoid forever-chemical cookware, plastics, and aluminium storage.

Nervous system balance

Stress is a major flare driver. Prioritise restorative sleep, time in nature, calming practices, and activities that bring joy. Uplifting company (people and animals) supports oxytocin, counterbalancing cortisol’s inflammatory effects.

Medications

Certain petrochemical medications may worsen vascular reactivity. When possible, consult your healthcare provider on supportive strategies.
