Lately I have been suddenly feeling a flash of chills run across my face, and my face gets all red. I'm not embarrassed or anything, it just happens for no reason. It lasts only about 5 seconds or so, but I get them at least every 30 minutes. Why is this?

  7. It depends how is your diet,what kind of make-up you use(if you wear any),any sun rashes,how much moist it receives...etct.).

    For more advice you can wash your face morning and night for at least 2 weeks.Then in any drug store there is OIL FREE lotions but stay away from toners.If your problem continues for a very long time you might want to see a doctor or so.

      Hope I helped:D---M*LO23.

  8. I'm not a doctor at all, but I knew someone who got something simlar - though to a more exreme degree - and it was diagnosed as rosacea. If you search on wikipedia for Rosacea if might give you the other symptoms and you could determine if it's something you might be suffering from. Don't get yourself worried though. II think the chances are that it's just a temporary thing and it might be just a symptom of a virus you've caught or something along those lines. Good luck.
