Make-Up for Those with Rosacea or Acne-Prone Skin
City Market carries a great line of make-up products for people suffering from rosacea or acne prone skin called Larenim (mineral spelled backwards). It is made of 100% minerals and is free of any talc (which leaches moisture from the skin & can permanently stretch the pore walls), dyes, oils, or chemicals. It is also vegan! One of the best things about minerals is that they will not harbor bacteria, on your skin or in the containers. They also are light refractive, which allows your skin to glow but not sparkle.
One of the most common complaints with foundation is that it has a “caked-on” appearance on the skin. Use several light layers versus one heavy application & it always blends seamlessly into skin. Larenim recommends using the “W” (meaning warm, there is also the C line for cool) line of foundation because they are yellow-based & have a neutralizing effect on redness.
There is also a treatment product called Dusk til Dawn, which can be used as a substitute for the acne medicine, benzoyl peroxide. Wear it under foundation as a treatment or use it at night before bed too. It also minimizes the redness due to rosacea and acne.
