What is Rosacea?
Rosacea is a chronic skin disorder that causes redness and swelling primarily in the face. Other areas that can be affected are the scalp, neck, ears, chest, and back. Rosacea can progress from frequent flushing of the skin to persistent redness, pimples, and visible blood vessels in the face.
What type of cosmetics are recommended for a Rosacea skin condition?
Many people prefer to use natural products on their sensitive skin to prevent flair ups and treat Rosacea. Natural products are gentle on the skin and do not carry the risk of side affects. The best approach for treating Rosacea starts with using safe natural products with herbs and botanicals, rather than synthetics and chemicals. Cosmetics having synthetic ingredients are far more likely to irritate your sensitive skin. It is recommended to try a natural product for more than 3 months. You will be able to evaluate the effectiveness of the product and the number of flair ups. During this time period, take the time to journal and record flair ups, skin sensitivity, and skin appearance.
What irritating ingredients should be avoided that are found in some cosmetics?
Cosmetics that are natural mineral based or water based and oil free are highly recommended for Rosacea. However, be careful in selecting your product because the majority of mineral products on the market are still loaded with preservatives like parabens; they also use dyes and fillers. Ingredients can be evaluated at the Evironmental Working Group's Skin Deep Report. Do your research to become knowledgeable about what ingredients are in your cosmetics and products.
Some of the ingredients to look out for that may irritate your sensitive skin:
alcohol, fragrance, menthol, talc, fragrance, petrochemical
peppermint, eucalyptus, witch, hazel, nano, GMO , gluten
parabens, dyes, bismuth, oxychloride, nut
Quality mineral based cosmetics nourish the skin with certified organic antioxidants. Some of the organic antioxidants include grape seed extract and pomegranate extract.
How do I use mineral based products?
Select a mineral based foundation that matches your skin tone and doesn't irritate it. To cover up blemishes, apply mineral based foundation sparingly with a small tipped brush. Apply again if needed. Apply the foundation again with a larger kabuki brush. If you would like a bit more coverage, add a translucent powder/mineral veil over this. Finish with a beautiful blush. Make sure to brush, brush, brush to polish and achieve a lovely glowing complexion.
A few other tips:
Apply mineral based cosmetics over dry skin. If you use a moisturizer, allow it to dry. Mineral based cosmetics are highly concentrated and should be applied sparingly to prevent caking. Less is More. Ample brushing brings out the beautiful glow. Cosmetics with a green or yellow base are good for redness issues. Bronzers can take away reddish tones and help your make-up last longer.
Recommendation: Afterglow Cosmetics offer a quality product from San Francisco, California. The mineral based cosmetics use natural and safe ingredients. Minerals and pigments are jet milled pharmaceutical grade with certified organic botanicals.
