Red acne on the skin causes discomfort and loss of aesthetics, here are 6 causes of red acne.

Skin exposed to sunlight

Ultraviolet or UV rays from the sun can damage and inflam the skin, leading to a condition of redness that is difficult to heal. Exposure to sunlight also weakens blood vessels, making it easy for red acne to appear.

Extreme hot weather

High temperatures increase blood circulation to the skin's surface, causing redness. Excessive sweating caused by hot weather can also irritate sensitive skin, causing red acne. This condition will be even worse on summer days with high temperatures and high humidity.

Stress

Frequent stress and anxiety are the main causes of red acne. When the body falls into this state, the hormone cortisol is released, which can cause inflammation and make red-cheeked acne worse.

Spicy foods

Eating too much spicy food can also cause red acne on the skin. Spicy foods such as chili, pepper and spicy sauce often contain capsaicin, which can stimulate nerve endings and dilate blood vessels. This reaction can cause redness, heat, and discomfort, especially in people with sensitive skin.

Alcohol

Alcohol is also one of the common causes of red eggs. According to research in the Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, red wine is a common cause of red-cheeked eggs due to its histamine content.

Some skin care products

Strong skin care ingredients such as alcohol, flavorings and exfoliating acids can disrupt the skin's barrier, causing redness, burning, increased inflammation and worsening symptoms of acne.
