Blotchy Skin--Help!
Hi! I am getting married this August on a beach in Southern California. I am a little worried because whenever I get extremely nervous, my chest and neck get a little blotchy. My dress shows both areas. Does anyone have any advice as to what to do? Is there something I can take or put on my skin to prevent this from happening? Does anyone else have this same problem? Any advice would be great. Thanks! =o)

I cannot believe how many people have this "blotchiness" problem. I too am one of those people who gets blotches from my chest all the way up the side of my cheeks and sometimes even on my upper arms. It happens to me when I`m nervous or excited also. I`ve lived with this since I was a teenager and now I`m 24. I am also a school teacher and whenever I am being observed by another staff member or having a parent conference, I turn into one big blotch. I`ve done the turtleneck thing too for a while, but you can`t wear turtlenecks every day and that`s no way to live anyways. I will be talking to my doctor very soon. Thanks to everyone for their replies. It`s nice to know you`re not alone :) !

My wife is an esthetician and says it sounds like rosacea. She sells products to treat this condition. If your interested respond back at stg500@Yahoo.com.
