I get extremely flushed when I work out
and it is embarrassing for me. I was told
to drink water while working out and that
might help. But I still get red. Does
anybody have any advice for me? Thank
you!

I understand wat your going thru- I have
the same problem. Although it is
embarrassing, I was told there is not much
I could do.. In my experience, the more
times I exercise, the less obvious it is,
and after going through so much trying to
exercise at times when ppl wouldnt see me-
like night and early morning- I discovered
certain breathing techniques which, at the
end of my run, would leave my face less
flushed.
Anyhow I hope you dont let it get to you
and watever you do- dont let it get in the
way of your exercise!!! Xoxo

Hey! I get very flushed too. Not only
when I exercise- it also happens when i'm
embarrassed, when i'm hot, etc. Most
people with really fair skin have this
problem, and it can sometimes lead to
rosacea. Rutin really helps prevent this
skin disorder. You can apply it topically
or take pills orally. I have some in my
multivitamin and I also apply it to my
face before I work out. I find that this
is very effective, because I don't get red
as often or as bad as I used to. Hope
this helps!
