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 get red all the time i mean all the time. It’s really embarrassing because i have just started high school and when i do a speech in front of a class i get bright red and i can hear people wispering to each other saying “she is going really red” and i have had enough of it. So when ever we have a speech i always want to have a day ofd school so i dont have to do it.
Please help MEEEEEEEEEEE
i get red all the time and i hate it. it shows all my emotions and its not fair people get to see mineand i dont see theirs!!!
plz HELP MEEE!!!!!!
my face turns red all the time and it makes me feel so stupid! i’ll be talking with someone and i’ll think to myself, i really hope my face doesn’t turn red. and it will! or if someone even thinks im lying or something and im not my face will still turn red so they do think im lying. i can’t take it. i feel like less of a person because of it. i need help!
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

i am 13 years old and i go red all the time. its so annoying because i am quite pale and im blond so its so obvious. when im talking to my friends i always go red. i have no idea why i just do and theyre always like ‘your so red’ and its so annoying. arrgghh i feel so stupid when i go red for no reason. i am starting to go red at home aswell and whenever my mum or dad asks me a question about boys or who im texting or anything to do with my social life, i alllllwaaaaaaaays go red, then they get suspicious. whenever i ask a question in class, i go bright red. argh i hate it and i have googled it and stuff and tried to work out how to stop it but it never works. i know its not anything medical or anything because i have been to see my gp and it was so embarrassing. its horrible and if anyone has a way of stoping it, PLEASE HELP ME! I AM GETTING EMBARRASSED FOR NO REASON AND MY PROBLEM IS MUCH LIKE EVERYONE ELSES BUT PLEASE HELP!
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.
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!!!!
Im 14 and ive been going red for about year now! I hateee ittttt. Ive tried creams and makeup they dont hide anything, ive tried eredican- and it didnt help.I feeel like this is never going to go away , i jsut wish i didnt blush its so annoyinggg. Does anybody know of anything that may help? PLEASEEEEE (:
I’m 13 and I always go red! Its sooo annoying! I’m very insecure and barely have any confidence so i guess that’s why. It normally has to do with boys…when i talk to a guy I like, or sit next to them,or sometimes even talking to a guy I don’t even like, or when my parents ask me about boys! But it honestly could happen for anything and its ruining my life! Im afraid to do/say some things or talk to certain people!! My face can turn red for the most random reasons and trust me…you can tell!i can feel my face get super hot and sometimes my eyes even start to water!! And that only makes me blush more! And people even point it out!! Which makes it turn even more red!! My face stayed red for a whole half an hour once when the guy i like high fived me!! Its ridiculous and im the only one in my grade!!
I need help! I heard you just need to make your exhale breath longer than your inhale…idk if that works though!
I turn red ALL the time. All the time. Im 17 years old I blush. when I make eye contact with a guy I blush. I dont even have to like them, it just happens. And I laugh a lot. Laugh; red as a tomato. An every guy i talk to who makes me laugh I blush. My friends pretty convinced that I like quite a few guys. And I dont at all xD. And then there are always those few people who point it out which then, surprise surprise I turn even more red. Ugh! I hate it. I wish i could get over it but I can’t. I will be forever tortured by this.
I’m in highschool and I used to blush. By becoming friends with more people and not thinking about it And forgetting about it is the easiest way to stop blushing
Im in high school and I have been blushing ever since I was in 5th grade its so freakin embarassing. I just want to hide my face.I hate it when people tell me Iam or when i hear someone saying it behind me. But Ive learned to just accept it because Ist what makes me different and beautiful the way Iam.
i hate it to it happens to me as well and being a dude it make me feel like such a pussy i think you just have to learn to accept it
I go red alll the time and its really annoyin like today i was talking to my friend and im normally shy and my health techers said see bshe is talkin to then my face got red and she said dont be embarrased an everyone looked my waty and pees always say tht im as red as a tomato and the makes my eyes water so much i just want to run away
I get REALLY REALLY red too I don’t get red over embarrassing things like presenting a project or anything but when I even LOOK at my crush I freakin go BRIGHT red its super embarrassing, and once I blushed for like 5 minutes straight, so blushers out there, your not the only one even though its not that bad, still just learn to control it, anyways when you blush when a cute guy smiles at you it melts his heart 🙂 keep that in mind next time your blushing problem gets out of hand
i think it really depends on my mood and everything. i have quite a few guy friends and when i’m around them i barely blush even if they hug me or touch me or stuff. then again there’s one of them and he’s like reaaaally hot but i don’t even like him in that way he’s just a friend but when he touches me or takes my hand or kisses my head i go bright read.
i barely blush around my friends and family in general. actually i almost never do. but when we have presentations in school it’s the worst thing ever, really. most teachers will let me turn off the lights and that makes everything much better but a few want us to present with the lights on and then i start sweating and stuttering and my voice gets all raspy and i can barely breathe because i’m blushing so hard. and then they all start whispering or just staring at me or saying “whoa there’s no need to explode girl” sigh and i just HATE it. i have an upcoming presentation on monday (surprise, surprise, lights ON) and i actually think about pretending to be sick and staying at home. i usually always hold my presentations and all but with the lights turned on…. no thanks.
I’m 13 and I go bright red ALL the time! Even in front of my family!! I cry almost every night because I’m so insecure that I feel like I have no friends even though I do:( I just hate it! In class I will get asked to answer a question and I’ll go red. All my teachers think I’m shy and lonley but in the complete opposite! No boys take any interest in me but I do have a lot of good friends that just laugh it off with me when I go red,which is nice that they choose to ignore it instead of pointing it out or laughing:) i have no confidence whatsoever! I cure it by my dancing because when I dance I feel free and I put all my energy into that so I can’t go red and it actually works:D but unfortunately I can’t dance in the middle of a classroom! My family will ask me who I’m texting and if it’s a boy I’ll go red. It started when I was about 7 so I just told people it happened when I laughed but as we got older thy realised it was because I get embarrassed but now people jut think I’m weird which is horrible!!!! Going bright red isn’t the only thing I do though, I sweat and can’t stay still and I’ll stutter… ALOT! In fact sometimes I stutter so much that people don’t even know what I’m saying. A few off teachers stare at me as I I’m from another planet when I go red am I used to think that was because I’m the only person that does but after reading all the other comments I realise I’m not and that all I need to do is believe in myself:-) another way I stop going red is by repeating the lyrics from songs into head like from little mix-Wings the line:’don’t matter what you say it won’t hurt me!’ I will just play it in my head and pretend I’m the only one there. Surprisingly it works but not all the time. Overall it just ruins my life because I could do so much better in school! Because I do dancing I could be in the school productions,I would get better reports and well it’s just good to have some confidence in yourself right? It was only 2 weeks ago and we were in drama:L I hate it! My partner is one of my bet friends but he also happens to be the most self centred and confident person ever! So the teacher though ours was good (because he is good at acting) and she asked us to per from in front of the whole class of 30! He read his lines and I was stood there waiting for my turn. I red my two lines and nearly ran out of the classro I’m tears! Everyone laughed and pointed at me so the teacher just said ‘needs some work you can sit down now!’ But when we did sit down my so called ‘friend’ said ‘what’s wrong with you!?’ And she is also really confident and popular so she was sat with alot of people who were listening to her! So I had her and her mates laughing at me,the teacher giving me weird looks and the ret of the class pointing am whispering things behind my back:-( I walked out of the class,I couldn’t help it! But I never got told off once because it was the end of lesson anyway! I do know why i go red,its all tp do with my lack of confidence im gussing? there are many things i dont like about myself so that makes me insecure…very insecure!!!!!!! but im getting brces soon so that will sort my horrible wonky teeth out! So yeah,I just needed to get all that off my Chest:) I actually feel alot better now!xx
this didn’t exactly help. (i am 11) whenever a guy talks to me, i turn red. a few months ago, i was doing something like a speech, and this guy was there listening (its awkward being around him, long story and i mean LONG). my face turned red, and he was watching. i couldnt so anything, but go to the nurses office. now i bet he thinks im really weird. well, this other guy once asked me a question, and i turned all red. then, this OTHER guy sits at my lunch table, and i turn red. and then ANOTHER guy talks to me in the hallway, and i turn red, so i went inside the class and pretended to be interested in some people playing this game. then, i had to sit by this guy, and i turned red. now my friend thinks i like them, but i dont. actually, i think they are mean, and inappropriate. one guy is annoying. another guy says bad words. three of the guys are inappropriate. this other guy likes to smash apples with his fists, which i think is annoying. i just dont get why i get red, and how to keep myself from getting red. i try the relaxing thing, and it only worked once, today. my friend started saying, “hes looking at you!” without stopping, and i couldnt control it! i told her that my face just randomly turnes red, and that i do NOT like those guys, but she doesn’t believe me. i am SO MAD!!!!! how do i keep myslef from getting red? im going to middle school nest year, and i dont want the same thing to happen! and one more thing, this guy i know talked to me in the hallway (different guy than the first one) and i turned red. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok…I blush a lot …..especially when I get compliments…..there’s this one guy at my scHool who compliments me, just to see my face get red…..he thinks I like him( like, as more than a friend )…..but in reality I don’t…I feel embarrassed because he always does it…and looking back, my face gets red when he says stuff like that to me, and it appears as though I like him…..I seem to be the only one everyone knows who’s face gets red at bad times…..and I was wondering if anyone knew how to stop it?…because it’s really embarrassing….
We all have voluntary thoughts. Blushing can hold you back if you want it to. For years I created this pattern that felt so hard to break until I realized it was a choice. A firm mentality overcomes any negative thought. Just like choosing to be drug-free or sticking to a diet.
I go red literally all the time. I go red if i get picked on in class to answer a question. If a boy talks to me even if i dont like them. If my friends say “oooh you’d look good with…” even if i dont even like them i will still go bright red and then my friends point it out and think i like him. I think i have a phobia of blushing bc i get so scared to go to school because i just know i will blush at some point. A few times i have just cried i want to stop blushing so bad. I dont know how to stop it.
Hi
My name is Jamie
I am a 39 year old male and blushed since I was at school.
Hope this technique helps people stop blushing.
Imagine a square object any size doesn’t matter . A square object can be anywhere, example your in a busy shop and your in a queue your next to be served you feel your face starting to blush. Find any square object their will be one in front of you.look on the wall or something you have purchased. First on the left hand side of your square slowly inhale then along the top of the square slowly exhale then down to the right of the square inhale then along the bottom of the square exhale then repeat a few times.This wiill slow your blood pressure and stop you face going red in a social situation. I really hopes this helps because I know blushing can ruin your confidence. Jamie
I’m 13, and I get pure Red. I get so depressed and think of myself as a different person. I have a crush on a guy, and I always hide myself behind my hair. I’m colored skin, and I always look at other people’s face waiting for it to get red as well. I’m the only person at school who gets red. Its so embarrassing. All my friends tell me ‘OMG, U are so RED”. They make fun of me. I can’t use long sleeve because it makes my face get 100 times more red. Every time I talk to my crushes, I tell them of my blushing problem. Some understand and don’t ask why. I feel different, and wonder if maybe in the future, my face wont get as red. I get red all the time. when i’m just sitting there in class, when I lay in my bed at night. I think its a problem. I need someone’s advice, and hope someone feels the same way I do.
Amen. I no exactly wut u all r talking about. I absolutely get bright red ALL the time!!!! & i HATE it. I hav had this problem 4 yrs. & now my little sis is starting.
