rosacea

[Junie2]

Hi Everyone

I have rosacea, I have tried lots of cover creams make up etc, but my skin is dry and mature, the products I have tried make my skin drier.

can you recommend anything I can use please.

Many thanks

Junie

Hi Junie. I'm like you - I'd love as much advice as possible, and recommendations of products, especially skincare. I can recommend a product called Rosalique, which is a green tinted primer which cleverly reduces the red. Please look it up on the Internet - the reviews are amazing and there are lots of videos showing how to apply it. All the best. xxx

Hi Junie

I personally use Lily Lolo foundation powder and sometimes CC cream as their ingredients are minimal and not irritating.

I try to keep my skin as hydrated as possible and so this helps with any makeup.

There is a great website run by a woman who has rosacea herself and is a beauty blogger so has honestly tried and tested many products & has great info.

Her name is Lex Gillies and the website name to Google is: Talonted Lex

Hopefully this may help in some way!

Junie

Hi. I read your reply to Junie, and I'm so grateful to you for recommending a rosacea sufferer whom I've never heard of before. I can't wait to look up her website! Thanks so much!!!

Hi Junie2 , I wanted to take my turn and say welcome to the Changing Faces community and thank you for your post! You may be interested to know that Changing Faces offers a Skin Camouflage Service, if you are based in Scotland or England and would like to explore if this is an option for you, check out changingfaces.org.uk/skin-c.... They have skilled practitioners who can colour-match your skin, as well as show you how to apply products yourself.

I can see that other members of the community have offered other options you can consider as well. Hopefully you will find something that works for you and do let us know how you get on.

Take care,

Hi Junie2. Two other sites I know of that give advice on rosacea are FINCA (run by Finola Fegan) and Dr Sam Bunting. All the best! xxx

Hi - it's me again! I've been suffering from an itchy skin, and have just tried this product (which is also said to help rosacea). After one day, my skin doesn't itch any more, and my rosacea looks better. It's too early to say whether it's possible to be really helpful for rosacea, but you may want to read about it on victoriahealth.com. Best wishes. xxx
