How Can I Prevent
Wedding-Day Blushing?
Whenever there are more than 20 people staring
at me, I begin to splotch. First its an uneven rash, then
it becomes a full flush of fire red. I heard theres a pill
for blushing. Will it keep me from looking like Im about to
pop?
Blushing the way you do only adds insult to injury whats already
an embarrassing moment is highlighted by the splotches consuming
your face like the blob that ate Manhattan. Doctors call this normal
occurrence phasomotor instability. Blushing tends to happen
to people with fair skin. If your parents blush, you probably tend
to, also When you get nervous, the nerves cause more blood to flow
to the face.
Doctors sometimes prescribe certain low-blood-pressure pills, but
their side effects (dizziness, fatigue) can be brutal, especially
on your wedding day. Your veil will only do so much to hide your
royal flush, so to keep your crimson hue at bay, avoid things that
trigger it. Always use sunscreen (at least SPF 15) if you must catch
a few rays. And steer clear of hot beverages, alcohol and spicy
foods. All of these cause blood vessels to constrict, which can
heighten your vermilion shade. But if all else fails, remember:
theres nothing more charming than a blushing bride.
