What is causing your skin to flare up?

If you are like me and have sensitive skin, then you know that it is hard to find products that work well with it. One thing that I suffer from is inflammation which leaves my face feeling worse than a very bad sunburn. Inflammation can cause skin rashes, redness, dermatitis (eczema), rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, and psoriasis. Sometimes it can be minor and other times major. Sometimes, people get this confused with having dried skin. Each are different and don't necessarily go together in most cases. Skin inflammation can be caused by a numerous of things. They are as followed:
 
-Being in the sun
-Chemicals used such as detergents or soaps
-Medical issues or weak immune system
-Foods that you consume high in carbs or sugar
-Medicines that you are possibly taking

While there are products over the counter that do claim to help, I decided to make my own homemade anti-inflammatory mask a few days ago because my own personal experience with those products. I find that that they never truly sooth the skin nor calm it. However, this homemade mask that I made definitely did the trick and it felt so, so GREAT. 

All these ingredients have anti-inflammatory properties and are great for any kind of eczema, rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, and psoriasis because they help relieve discomfort, have antiseptic healing benefits, help open the sinuses, relieve the muscles, and help with acne. Not to mention, it helps with your nervous system because of the awesome aromatherapy.
