106. Why Is My Face So Red? Understanding Chronic Redness, Flushing & Vascular Reactivity


Listen Later

If you've noticed your cheeks becoming redder, flushing more easily, or staying pink long after a workout, glass of wine, or stressful day, this episode is for you.

Before we talk about rosacea, we need to understand the foundation: vascular reactivity.

In today's episode, I explain what's happening beneath the surface of the skin when redness becomes more persistent. We explore the physiology of chronic redness, how your skin barrier, nervous system, inflammation, lymphatic system, and everyday habits all influence the tiny blood vessels in your face, and why supporting your skin is about so much more than finding the "right" skincare products.

Then we zoom out and take a whole-person perspective, exploring how patterns like excess heat, chronic stress, depletion, and nourishment may influence the way redness shows up in different people.

Rather than offering another one-size-fits-all skincare solution, my hope is to leave you with a deeper understanding of your own unique patterns and an invitation to become more curious about what your skin may be communicating.
