Makeup For Rosacea

[Californian]

I remember reading a post about makeup as it concerns rosacea and what kind of makeup is best.

Here is a great, recent article I found that suggests specific makeup. I hope this can help someone with rosacea or someone you know who has rosacea.

From Ladies' Home Journal

POWDER POWER



Q: I have rosacea, and many foundations irritate my skin. but I need something to cover the redness. Any ideas?

A: If you have the red bumps and flushed face of rosacea, your skin tends to be extra sensitive. Mineral makeup, a loose powder made from ultrafine minerals, contains no preservatives or perfumes that further irritate your skin. The minerals zinc and titanium dioxide also provide some natural sun protection (you should still wear sunscreen under your makeup). A few mineral makeup options:

1. bareMinerals Foundation by Bare Escentuals ($24) <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=740 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD></TD><TD vAlign=top><!-- product display --><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=570 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD class=stdCopy11 align=right colSpan=8><!-- top pagination --></TD></TR><TR><TD>

i.d. bareMinerals Foundation - SPF 15 Sunscreen

3. NaturElle Ellegance Sheer Tone Foundation (no pic, call 800 442-3936)

For natural results, use a short-bristled brush that's tapered to allow for better coverage. Start at the outside of your cheekbones and work your way in, moving the brush in a circular motion.

EDM might be another good brand worth trying as many girls on here LOVE EDM over BE or other MMU brands.

Joppa Minerals is great for rosacea, in fact that's what it was originally made for. Check them out at joppaminerals.com

Prescriptives Foundation Flawless or Medium to full Coverage matte Foundation both be great.

So many journals, so many review, so many opinions. Unfortunate, we can't all use the same foundation. What is a miracle product for one person is a nightmare product for another.
