For most people, blushing is normal but it’s still a good idea to search for a blushing cure to stop your face turning red at the slightest provocation.
Normally people react by blushing when they have an embarrassing moment or situation, or an event that occurs to make them embarrassed.
However, some people blush excessively, seemingly at anything – not just a quick blush from an embarrassing comment. They probably need a blushing cure more than most.
Is there a blushing cure?
People who blush excessively can become self-conscious and as a result develop a phobia associated with it, making their blushing problem even worse.
They become so fixated in trying to control their blushing that they dread it. It’s at this stage that blushing becomes a problem and even a fear or phobia., making a blushing cure even more necessary.
Blushing is caused by dilation of the small blood vessels in your face. This results in an increased supply of blood to that area and you blush.
It is a perfectly normal reaction to something or a situation that embarrasses you.
However, blushing can get out of hand and can become excessive, no matter how old you are. You might find yourself avoiding places, people or going out in general because you get embarrassed and haven’t yet found a blushing cure.
With a little bit of research you can take certain measures to prevent excessive blushing:
- Visit your doctor and through a medical checkup can rule out other conditions that might be causing your blushing problem.
- Limit your alcohol as it can have a natural blushing effect on many people.
- Avoid eating spicy foods. Spicy foods are another natural blushing effect flow to your face.
- Maintain a stable temperature. Dress warm in the winter, and stay cool in the summer.
- Keep your temper to a limit. Emotional highs and lows have an effect on your complexion!
Another way to cure your blushing is to listen to a stop blushing hypnosis MP3. This will help to change the way your body thinks and you’ll soon find that you’re blushing less often.

Also, try to learn some relaxation techniques. Yoga can be very helpful with this. The first step is to come to terms with your excessive blushing problem and learn to accept it for what it is. If you can do this, usually the problem fades away on it’s own because you are not totally obsessing over it.

I used to go red all the time, I hated talking to people as it always happened. When someone I knew saw me at the shops I would try to avoid them as I knew what would happen. I studied it alot after this and it can be stopped it just takes some work. The main reasons of blushing with me was feeling so self conscience and lack of confidence, like easy for someone to make me feel stupid. I brought a book on self confidence and it helped alot, I learned how to feel alot more confident in myself so my blushing didmt happen so often. The other reason I blused was when I though I was going to do it, I would think I hope I don’t go red but as soon as I thought this bang I went bright red and felt hot too, it was because I focused on it, I needed to distract my mind, not sure if you notice but while you have an episode of going red something what have happened to take your focus off it for example your kid or your mate would but in the conversation then once your attention is on someone else then its ok, So turn your attention outwards to something else or what I do is breath slowly and count my breaths, in 1 2 out 1 2. Nobody knows your doing it and it helps take your mind off blushing, any distraction will do. Give it a go. Im not an expert or anything but this works for me.

Thank you to the person who commented just before me. I think that will really help me! I am ginger and pale so it is too obvious when I blush. It’s even worse when teachers point it out. But that saounds like a plan for me! Thank you. x

this used to happen to me several times a day. I actually quit a good job because it made me so unhappy and self-conscious about myself. It absolutely destroyed my self-confidence.
But now I’m pretty much cured

I used to get red over almost anything since I was 13 years old. at first I thought that i was shy. Then seeing people’s reactions to my “weird” redness I seriously thought that something was wrong with me and then I finally convinced myself that i was socially inadequate! it lasted more than 10 years. I am 27 years old now and I still have this problem, but I don’t see it as embarrassing as before, a lot of people have far more serious issues and they seem okay with it so I learned not to obsess over this small detail, I can’t be perfect and we all have issues. so to diminish the effect of blushing on my life; I started looking for things to be grateful for when it comes to blushing: I am lucky I am not a guy so blushing isn’t that much of big deal.. in fact most guys think it’s endearing and feminine. Then I looked for those anti-redness creams that people use mainly during winter time. It worked very well, and I stopped obsessing over getting red. I noticed that I was too dependent to those creams though. Then I found out that if I find a way to cool off quickly right before the blushing begins, I’d have more chances to stop it. so I drink water that I carry with me all the time, do breathing exercises…etc..I think the real cure is to stop caring about what people may think of me ( when blushing) by developing stronger self confidence and focusing on living my life to the fullest! after all we never know when death will come. I also learned that people don’t really care if I blush or not, they may think that it’s funny for few moments then they get occupied with their own lives and issues!

i get red allllll the time. and its seriously annoying. people point it out to me, and i think, “well im not even embarassed!” but they think i am!! i talk to my guy friends, and i just randomly start blushing, so they think i like them! now i just avoid my guy friends at all costs, and avoid looking people in the eyes because the thought that’s always on my mind is AM I BLUSHING, DO THEY NOTICE?? and of course i am, or when i think that, which is every second, i do. i wish it would stop, because it just started being like this and it makes everything awkward. im gonna try the breathing things, and hopefully that works, but im SERIOUSLY considering that ETS surgery…and that’s kinda sad since this is just some confidence thing that shouldn’t even be a problem..!

hey i have a blushing problem too, i get really red in my classes if i have a presentation or if i have to say something in spanish!!! thats the worst. i sometimes find that talking and laughing with a friend gives me a confidence boost, or if they laugh at me while im up or talking ill laugh too. I also sometimes just take deep breathes and say to myself you can do this and make sure i have no butterflies in my stomach. But the laughing before i go up helps the most. ive also heard of surgerys,theres an episode of greys anatomy where someone blushes a ton and they fix it, but there are risks, so talk to your parents, and friends and doctor first. i hope this helps!!!!

I didn’t know the blushing problems can be cured. I’ve been blushing every time I’m embarrassed or shy since I was a kid. I don’t know but I think it’s a psychological thing since I classify my self as timid person.
Comment by Steph — July 15, 2011 @ 9:53 am
I blush alot too and its embarrassing when it happens and of course, that makes me blush more! whenever i do everyone is like ur all red and they laugh. i can feel the heat in my face when it happensa and thats embarrassing, and then i blush more. When boys especially get around me or touch me i blush and they all laugh which again, makes me blush more and they are laughing at me and telling everyone. Everyone at school thinks that when i blush when a boy touches me, that i like them and I DONT! I just wish people wold be less immature and i WISH THE BLUSHIN WOULD STOP… PLEASE HELP ME PLEASE!!!!
