Answer: Rosacea flare-ups can be triggered by a number of things including heat, stress, and regular activities such as cleaning the house or doing yard work. It is important to note that triggers may not be the exact same for every person. One may see a flare from a glass of wine while another may have a stronger reaction to colder weather as opposed to warmer weather. Keep watch as to what factors can be possible triggers for your Rosacea and take measures to either avoid them, remove yourself before a flare-up occurs, or prepare yourself (for example: when traveling) to handle any flare-ups with appropriate products so as to not disrupt your life.
