Rosacea and psoriasis are both common skin conditions that can cause some similar symptoms. It can be hard to know which one you have without talking to your doctor, but there are some key differences that can help you tell one from the other.

Rosacea and psoriasis are both lifelong conditions with symptoms that come and go. Most people have flare-ups and more mild periods called remissions.

Rosacea usually affects the skin at the center of your face, especially your cheeks, nose, and chin. Signs include:

• Flushness or redness
• Bumps and pimples
• The skin of the nose can get thicker.
• Stinging, burning, or tightness of skin
• Swelling
• Dry, rough, or scaly-feeling skin

Psoriasis, though, can happen anywhere on your body. But when it appears on your face, it’s usually in the eyebrows, around the nose, and at the top of the forehead in the hairline. The symptoms can look similar to rosacea:

• Red patches
• Dryness
• Itching or burning
• White bumps filled with pus

Triggers

Rosacea and psoriasis have some of the same triggers: stress, some medications, alcohol, changes in the weather, and for some people, allergies orr certain foods. Psoriasis can also be triggered by infections and skin injuries.

Doctors aren’t sure exactly why people get rosacea or psoriasis. But both conditions tend to run in families. Problems with the immune system lso seem to play a role.

Coping

On top of medical treatments, many lifestyle changes can ease symptoms of rosacea and psoriasis:

One of the most important factors to YELLE is convenience. When our founder Yandy Smith-Harris was developing YELLE’s Fresh Start Collection, she knew that she wanted to create something that was not only nourishing for our youth, but also convenient for their busy lifestyles.

Increased heat during the summer months can aggravate the skin and leave it feeling warm, sweaty, and uncomfortable. Acne breakouts are more prevalent, and general discomfort with the skin is more typical during the warmer months. All skin types crave hydration to beat the heat of summer and a bit of refreshment is always welcomed. Sunhats, SPF, and the YELLE Beauty Awakening Toner are your best

friend this time of year. YELLE Beauty’s Awakening Toner has many multi uses, read on to discover the many multi-tasking benefits the toner offers:

As a Toner

Toner is extremely nourishing and perfect for all skin types. From restoring the skins pH balance to moisturizing and providing additional cleansing benefits the YELLE team stands firm in its belief that the benefits of using a toner far outweigh not using one at all. We recommend using toner every day to feed your thirsty skin and restore its surface. Our gel toner refreshes and restores the skin after cleansing with calming aloe, rose hip oil and hyaluronic acid. This combination helps alleviate stressed skin and restores its tone and elasticity.

As a Mask

Refresh and soothe your skin by allowing our toner to also dub as your at-home mask. Refrigerate our toner 24-48 hours before usage and then right after cleansing apply it to the skin, leave on for 3-5 minutes and then wipe away the excess. The extra dose of powerful and soothing hydration delivered into your skin will feel amazing! The aloe in our toner is a wonderful anti-inflammatory agent that is

excellent for wound healing, and collagen synthesis. The rosemary is also a potent antioxidant that is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial, making this a really good treatment for sunburned or over heated skin. 

As a Summer Eye Treatment

The skin around your eyes is very sensitive to sunlight. Sunglasses that have the proper amount of UVA and UVB protection and that limit your eyes exposure to the harmful rays of the sun are a MUST! Refresh your eyes with a soothing summer eye treatment complete with our toner and ADREAM Brightening Eye Cream. Here are the steps: Use a q-tip or cotton ball and apply toner to the eye lids to remove eye make-up. Next, pat a little toner underneath the eyes to reduce puffiness and to hydrate the delicate under eye area. Use the small end of your jade roller to stimulate blood flow, and place it in the inner corner of the eye and roll out toward the temples, do this for 5-8 passes on each eye. Lastly, apply ADREAM Brightening Eye Cream to smooth, brighten and improve elasticity.

As of June 21, Summer is OFFICIALLY Here. There’s more hours of sunshine, and more opportunity for our melanin to shine for the world to see. 

While we welcome the warmth and sunshine, we have a love/hate relationship with the heat and humidity. Are you with us? When it comes to your skin, it’s important to adjust your skincare regimen to the temperature and humidity change in order to keep it hydrated, glowing

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that both inhibits the enzyme that produces melanin in the skin and stimulates collagen to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Vitamin C should be in your regimen all year, but it’s especially important during the summer months as it helps to brighten and lighten the skin.

Oats

It’s in everything, and with good reason: colloidal oatmeal (which are oats ground very finely, and should not be eaten) is amazing at treating itchy skin caused by skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema, seasonal issues like summer dryness and bug bites, and minor concerns like flaky skin.

Witch Hazel

Raise your hand if your grandmother ever told you to use witch hazel after your shower to ensure healthy, gorgeous skin. Well, it turns out she was onto something: witch hazel balances oil production, reduces redness and gets rid of swelling, all at the same time. It’s nature’s perfect natural toner, as it’s tough enough to remove makeup and grime without stripping skin of the oil it needs to function. Our version of Witch Hazel is our Yelle Awakening Toner. 

Remember you should be extremely consistent when it comes to your Summer Skincare Regimen. Using our Awakening Complete Kit will ensure your skin is nourished and protected from even the hottest summer days. 

Be sure to layer your skincare with sunscreen before heading out the door. You want to make sure you apply sunscreen at least 30 min before sun exposure for the best protection. 

Keep things hot, but stay cool fam!

Father’s Day is a great excuse to convince dad to update his skincare routine. Historically, men might not have been as diligent about skin care as women, but that’s slowly starting to change. More and more, men are realizing they aren’t immune to all the pollution and sun damage and they know that they need to up their skincare game. 

So if you’re looking for a nontraditional gift for the special dad in your life … give YELLE Skincare’s Brave collection a try. 

What’s so special about the BRAVE collection? Let’s dig in:

The Milk and Honey Cleanser … with a twist:

Sure the Milk and Honey Cleanser is a signature for YELLE Skincare, but the Brave collection’s version has a little more that every man’s skin needs. Infused with aloe it calms and soothes even the most irritated skin that encounters rough activity like our fellas. It’s power-packed with chamomile, honey, and jojoba oil, which are ingredients that are known to calm, soothe and cleanse the skin. 

The No More Grit Scrub … 

The truth is, men like scrubs. It’s something about the texture that makes them feel like they are taking off all of the grit … but YELLE’s No More Grit Scrub, removes all of the build up on your skin, giving you a clean slate to build the foundation of your skincare routine. 

The Smoothe and Clean After Shave …

There’s absolutely no way our very own Yandy Smith could develop a men’s skincare line without thinking about after shave … afterall she loves smooth and bright skin (take note from MDC). Say no to razor bumps with this plant-based after shave formula that is gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin, but effective enough to protect you from any razor bump outbreak. 

The Signature Daily Moisturizer …

It’s simple, YELLE Skin Care is helping the bravest men put their best face forward with moisturized skin that stays moisturized all day long. Brave collection’s Signature Daily Moisturizer is filled with antioxidants that can ensure well moisturized skin. A lot of men are unaware that their skin still needs moisture, despite having oily or combination skin. So having a routined daily moisturizer is a must to keep your Brave skin in tiptop shape. 

At YELLE Skincare, we don’t like to overcomplicate things. We know that men like a simple routine that is low-maintenance and easy to use. We aim to keep the home-skincare simple with an easy to follow system.
