My sweet Auntie Vida emailed me with a question a few weeks back about what to use for redness or rosacea. There are so many things you can do to help combat the redness from what you eat and drink, to controlling the temperature, and of course there is the skin care and make up we use. There are a few good light weight powders out there that help tone down the redness by using a certain tint to conceal the red, but few offer ingredients within their products to eliminate it all together. I came across this newbie from Clinique and it looked interesting, so I tried it. Now I am not super red, so I would love to actually try this on someone ideal...it did have a cooling effect which also makes me want to try it in the warmer months for all my summer Brides. We will keep you updated! If you "Give it a go" as Tony Fergeson says...holla back and let's us know what you think!
Here's the 411...
