Before all of my issues started I never wore foundation. I would use Clinique concealer and powder when needed, but that wasn't very often. Now I need to buy stock in makeup for all I need to use to cover my redness!

I bought some mineral makeup, which worked fine at first, until I stopped using the steroid cream and my face went mad.

Do you use water-based, powder or both? Mineral or a department store brand?

I've always had luck with Clinique, but I'm not sure what to buy. I don't want to irritate my skin or clog my pores.

Thanks!

MAC powder works great, covers redness well, and doesn't irritate my skin.

I tried dermablend and camoflage make up but it was sooo obvious.

so now I use estee lauder double wear. It is quite a light make up so doesn't cover completely but kind of evens out the skin tone in a non obvious way.

I use Dermalogica and I love it. I have no issues or problems. And it gives you good coverage. You might find that some foundations made for women with rosacea does not have enough coverage. They have a lot of other products for sensitive skin as well. I wish I was rich I would get everything for my rosacea skin. As matter of fact when I get my taxes I might have to make a purchase.

Try the ............

ultracalming cleanser
sheer tint redness relief spf15
treatment foundation

Dermalogica
products are free of the following ingredients known for increasing skin sensitivity:

• Artificial colors
• Artificial fragrances
• S.D. Alcohol
• Mineral Oil
• Lanolin
• PABA


I tried the new Corrective Foundation
A total coverage by Vichy but I did not like it like I liked the Dermalogica. But you might. It has a setting powder too.

Best makeup I have ever used is Clinique's Repairwear....it's awesome...covers med to full if wanted and just one tiny pump does the entire face no problem....light as a feather...and it washes off sooooo easily...I have tried many foundations and to date this is the bomb! HTH

1. Sheer cover is a mineral makeup, works well but not suitable for a guy.

2. Clinique almost makeup is light and natural looking. I use it occasionally and very happy with it. Cant tell I am wearing make up at all. But it doesnt provide perfect coverage.

3. Dermablend is so cakey.
