Understand your base

Redness is not always rosacea

Red cheeks and visible capillaries can have different causes. This guide covers camouflage and application, not diagnosis. Ask a doctor about persistent redness or discomfort. If you have rosacea, follow your treatment advice alongside your make-up routine.

Build gradually

Your make-up routine in four steps

01 / APPLICATION

Prepare gently

Use skincare your skin tolerates and let it absorb. Try new make-up on a small area first. Primer is optional; use it only if you enjoy the texture.

02 / APPLICATION

Correct locally

Pat a tiny amount of green concealer onto redness. The aim is to balance the colour, not leave a visibly green layer.

03 / APPLICATION

Apply thin layers

Apply foundation gently and add coverage only where you want it. Avoid vigorous rubbing or buffing on easily irritated skin.

04 / APPLICATION

Check shade and finish

Check your make-up in daylight. If needed, use a little finishing powder on shiny areas and leave dry areas lightly made up.

Good to know

Frequently asked
questions

Which foundation suits rosacea?

No foundation suits every skin with rosacea. Consider the complete formula and your own reaction. Apply gently in thin layers. Ask your dermatologist for advice if many products cause irritation.

Can green concealer treat rosacea?

No. It adjusts the appearance of redness, but does not treat rosacea. Use it only if your skin tolerates the formula.

Should green concealer go before foundation?

For targeted correction, start with a tiny amount of green concealer, then apply foundation in your skin tone. Work gently so you do not wipe the corrector away.

Does hypoallergenic guarantee my skin will not react?

No. It is not a guarantee for every skin. Check ingredients and try a new product on a small area first.

How can I avoid irritation from make-up?

Apply gently with clean tools and avoid rubbing. Stop using a product that burns, itches or increases redness. Ask a doctor about recurring symptoms.
