At some point... without much warning, it suddenly starts: redness on the cheeks, which sometimes glow like fire on the skin, inflammatory blisters and nodules that are often painful, dry, flaky skin that then vehemently resists all the pretty skin creams, serums and cleansers. Spicy food, heat, excitement, alcohol and the like make the whole thing even worse. We are talking about rosacea - an inflammatory, chronic disease of the facial skin that appears in varying degrees of severity.
Not only has the following topic been requested several times by our community, we are also honestly relieved that after many months since our make-up range was launched, we continue to receive positive feedback from our customers about our Glow Foundation in combination with rosacea. Therefore, we have decided to dedicate an entire post to this topic to share with you experiences from others and tips from Miriam herself.

Make-up tips from Miriam Jacks
Our model Nora has a mild form of rosacea and pigment spots.
1.) Tone of the Foundation
Basically, the right shade of foundation is half the battle, but with rosacea it is almost more important. Many people make the mistake of choosing a darker shade in the hope that this will better cover the reddened skin. Wrong! Here it is very important to match the make-up colour to the neck. So it is best to test the colour on your neck and if it blends with your skin there, it is right. Important: It may make you look paler. But with the help of bronzer and blusher you can then freshen up your complexion a little. It makes your skin look more natural.
2.) INCIS
Here you should avoid make-up products with a lot of ingredients, as well as irritating preservatives and fragrances and very dry consistencies.
Our Glow Foundation contains bisabolol . This is a natural active ingredient that is extracted from chamomile oil and has been used for years in care products for sensitive skin and rosacea. Bisabolol soothes the skin and has an anti-inflammatory effect on redness, inflammation and blemishes.
Our foundation also contains niacinamide , which can reduce irritation and make the skin appear more balanced. It can also reduce redness in the skin.
Please note that everyone’s skin may react differently.

3.) Beauty Tool
Your brush should not irritate the skin, so we recommend our Kabuki brush #20 for foundation. Soft bristles distribute the foundation perfectly.

4.) Extra coverage (+ cream concealer)
This is also a common mistake, expecting the foundation to cover everything. Please use a light foundation that does not clog your pores, lets your skin breathe, is gentle on it... The foundation is not meant to cover everything, that is what the cream concealer is for. This can either be mixed into the foundation or applied on its own. If you need more coverage, dab the concealer onto the skin instead of brushing it on. Our Mini Powder & Concealer Brush #9 is ideal for this - it is the best brush for rosacea as it is super soft and therefore irritates the skin less.
5.) Powder
It's better to limit the powder to the T-zone, because a natural glow on the cheeks looks young and fresh. Here, too, it's best to use our Mini Powder & Concealer Brush #9.

6.) Blush and Lipstick
Beautiful eye make-up and a great lipstick can also distract attention from the skin.
Tip: Wear our Cream Blush in Peach (avoid pink tones) and apply it to your cheeks. Our Lipstick in Rosewood, Signature or Coral gives the look the finishing touch.
