    R e d B l o t e sTHINK YOU’VE GOT THEM?When you see blood vessels,bump s, enlarged oil glands and

    thick skin on the n ose, cheeksand chin, all signs point to rosacea,a condition that affects more than16 million Americans. People withrosacea flu sh easily, thanks tofacial blood vessels that beco medilated, drawing blood closer tothe surface, says Leslie Baum ann,MD, a d ermatologist in Miami andauthor of The Skin Type Solution.

    WHAT TO DOSeek ou t soothing soap-freeingredients that also act as an ti-inflammatories, such as licorice,algae and colloidal oatmeal. Forgo

    rough facials, steer clear of spatreatments like chem ical peelsand m icrodermabrasion, andavoid acidic skin-care ingredients,including glycolic acid and,surprisingly, vitamin C . Twea kingyour diet may he lp, too. While spicyfoods can exacerbate redness,“eating foods rich in prob iotics—such as yog urt with live cultures—can p revent skin sensitivity,redness and itching by blocking therelease of inflamm ation-causing

    chemicals,” says W hitney Bowe,MD, a d ermatologist in New YorkCity. In fact, a study pu blished inthe journal Beneficial Microbesfound that consuming a d aily doseof the probiotic Lactoba cillusparacasei (about the am ountyou’d get in 2 cups of yogur t)

    significantly improved skinsensitivity, and an animal studyat the M assachusetts Instituteof Technology showed thatfemale mice had shinier fur andthicker skin within seven days ofconsuming yogurt.

    YOUR REDNESS-FIGHTING ARSENAL(1 ) Soothe flare-ups w ith FirstAid Beauty U ltra Repair InstantOatmeal M ask ($22; sephora.com).(2 ) The green-tinted formula ofL’Oréal Paris Magic Skin Bea utifierBB A nti-Redness C ream ($11; atdrugstores) neutralizes splotches

    and keep s skin looking even all day.(3 ) Applied after cleansing,PCA Sk in Anti-Redness Serum($59; pcaskin.com), whichcontains red and brown algaeand calming chamom ile, reducesinflammation; its glycerinprovides a shot of moisture.(4 ) The licorice-laced EucerinRedness Relief SoothingCleans er ($10; at mass retailers)combats blotchiness w ithoutdrying out your skin.

     Are you a skin-care overachiever?“Three-quartersofmy patients calltheir skin sensitive,”says Joshua Z eichner,MD,assistant professorofdermatology atThe Mount SinaiH ospital in New York City,“and treating skin too aggressively is one main reason why.” Even ifyou’renot intending 

    to,you could beoverwhelming  your skin:Theaverage woman uses12different products with 168 uniqueingredients every day,according toresearch from theEnvironmentalW orking Group inW ashington,D.C. All that on top ofthe

    usual stressors—pollution,hormonalchanges,anxiety—and it’s no wonderderms are seeing anincrease in sensitiveskin complaintssuch as breakouts,redness,rashes andextreme dryness.Need relief? Check out these strategiesfor calming your

    A l l e r g cR e a c t o n sTHINK YOU’VE GOT THEM?Skin freak-outs that arrive atlightning speed are typica lly animmune response to somethingthat doesn’t agree with yoursystem, says Neal Schultz, MD,a derm atologist in New York City

    and crea tor of the skin-care lineBeauty R x. Constantly flaring up?That’s often caused by geneticabno rmalities in your skin’s barrierfunction, according to researchfrom the U niversity of Vienna a ndthe University of Ca lifornia, SanFrancisco. Translation: If Mom’sskin erupts when exposed tocertain products, yours could, too.

    WHAT TO DOEase symptoms with a homem ademilk compress: Soak a cloth inequal parts warm w ater and milk,then place on irritated areas. Aloe

    and over-the-counter cortisone

    cream are also helpful. Sidestepsugary foods, which have beenlinked to inflammation, and tossmore zinc-rich items (beans,cashews) into your grocery cart.

    S u p e r - D r yS k iTHINK YOU’VE GOT IT?

    If your face feels tight and h asa sandp apery texture, it couldbe dry— or simply dehydrated.Deh ydrated skin is exactly what itsounds like: a complexion lackingwater, says Karen Kim, M D, adermatologist in Chestnut Hill,Ma ss. It could be a result ofyour diet, the weathe r or theproducts you’re using. (Too muchalcohol in a product is a comm onculprit.) But de hydrated sk inis a temporary condition, whereasdry skin is a type—th e one you’reborn with. Dry skin doesn’tprodu ce enou gh oil, so it’s always

    in need of a dose of moisture.And when dryness peaks, skincells can star t to lift, causingirritation and itchines s.

    WHAT TO DOIf you wash your skin tw ice a day,conside r doing so just at night,with a gentle soap -free cleanser.And keep your skin-care regimensimple, says Dr.K im: “No toner,

    astringent or products thatcontain alcohol.” Don’t attemptto scrub away any flakes; harshexfoliants can worsen the problem .Instead, layer on a meg a-hydratingcream that has ceramides, apeptide complex and niacinamide.And b e generous, advises Dr. Kim:

    “I tell my patients with dryness toapply em ollients two or three timesa day.” Overnight masks— usedonce a week—can also pack apotent hydration punch.

    B r e a k o u t sTHINK YOU’VE GOT THEM?Even though you’re well beyondpuberty, pimples pop up the waythey did before the prom. Wh atgives? Acne occurs for a numb erof reasons, including stress, lackof sleep, overactive oil glandsand exposure to comedogenic(pore-clogging) products—b utsensitive skin types are particularlysusceptible because they’re

    naturally prone to inflammation.

    WHAT TO DOTake note of whe n you break out—are there situations or produ ctsthat bring on blem ishes? If youget pimples after wearing a sp ecificmakeup product, say, stop usingit (obviously) and scrutinizethe ingredient list for suspe ctsthat could be to blame. Stick witha mild cleans er, then sp ot-treatwith salicylic acid—it not onlyhelps unplug clogged pores butis also less irritating than be nzoylperoxide, which can be harsh

    on sensitive skin. Treatme nts

    with sulfur, which d raws oil out

    of blocked pores and inhibitsbreakouts, can also be workedinto your regimen. A nd d on’tforget to moisturize: A study in theJournal of Drugs and Dermatology

    discovered that using moisturizersbefore acne treatments drasticallyreduces irritation withoutimpacting the zit zapper’s efficacy.Of cou rse, be sure to follow withSPF. “Research has show n that sunexposure leads to inflammation,which can c ause acne,” says Dr.Bowe. Finally, consider spacingout your trips to the sushi bar:

    “Eating a lot of iodine, found inshellfish and spinach, can lead toacne b y clogging h air follicles,”says Dr. Schultz.

    YOUR ACNE-ATTACKING ARSENAL(1 ) Elta MD U V Clear SPF 46 ($32;eltamd.com) is made with 5 percentniacinamide to reduce acne.(2 ) Olay Foaming Face Wash forSen sitive Skin ($5; olay.com) has0.5 percen t salicylic acid to fend offbreakouts without stripping skin.(3 ) Mario Badescu Drying Mask($18; mariobadescu.com) usessulfur to dry up breakouts and

    calamine to help p revent irritation.

    in luck: Spring 2016 is all about subtle sophistication. I’mloving the fresh take on pastels. Instead of sheer, they’rechalky, opaque shades— sky blue, grass green— that give aslight contrast to skin. I f you want to try a design, keep it

    simple. Negative-space nail art— where you leave a V empty at

    the moon of your nail and apply color to the rest— is popularnow. And while a French manicure with a thick white tip is

    pretty outdated, a gray base and thin white line make it edgy.

     yourself wishing onevery birthday candlefor your 20-somethingmetabolism to make asurprise comeback? You’re

    not alone. The realityis that acombinationofphysiological and lifestylefactors turns losing weightand keeping it off into a bitmore of a battle as you age.

    While there’s no magicpotion to banish saddlebagsand tummy pudge ina snap, you have morecontrol than you think.Whether you’ve hit 34 and

    traded gym time for diaperchanging or just toasted49with the lowest of thelow-cal cocktails, you canmaneuver around physicaland day-to-day hurdles tostop pounds in their tracks.

    YOUR BODY NOWNoticing less toneand more flab? Blamepregnancies, job pressuresand newfound timeconstraints. Plus, naturalage-related muscle loss—referred to as sarcopenia—has kicked off. (Adultsgenerally start to losebetween 3and 8percentof muscle mass per decadeafter 30.) Drown out the

    little voice that says, “Ican’t bounce back”— andremember three rules.

    DON’ T E AT FORTWO PEOPLEA 2015 study from theCenters for Disease Controland Prevention’s Maternaland Infant Health Branchfound that nearly half of allpregnant women gain more

    weight than recommended

    during pregnancy. Theupdated guidelines fromthe Institute of Medicineadvise putting on nomore than 35 pounds if

     you’re normal-weight,15 to 25pounds if you’reoverweight and 11 to

    20pounds if you’re obese.Calorie needs don’t

    increase until the secondtrimester, and only by340calories per day.During the third trimester,

     you should bump up yourdaily calories to 450 morethan your prepregnancyintake. (That translates toabout two snacks daily.)

    Smart move: If you’re

    concerned about getting

     your fill without goingoverboard, consider usingan app to track your diet,like Cron-O -Meter, whichallows you to choosepregnancy settings andpersonalize your targets.

    CUT THE LATTESSo many of the 30-something women whocome to see me don’trealize the diet damagedone by fancy coffeedrinks. A grande StarbucksCinnamon Dolce Latte, totake one example, can pack330 calories (10 more thana cheese Danish). Also,drinking caffeine late in

    the day can mess with sleep

    and, in turn, cause a risein cortisol, a stresshormone linked to belly fat.

    Give yourself acaffeinated-drink budget of250 calories per day, and cut

     yourself off six hours beforebed. But you don’t need to

    swear off caffeine entirely;new research from theAmerican Heart Associationfound that moderate coffeedrinkers— those who haveup to five cups a day— maybe at a lower risk of deathfrom heart and neurologicaldiseases and type 2 diabetes.
