Skin Goals: Reduce Redness

The Rosacea Routine

Rosacea is a common skin condition that causes facial redness, visible blood vessels and, in some cases, small red bumps that resemble whiteheads. Ingredients such as azelaic acid, ceramides, aloe and zinc are known to soothe irritation and minimize redness. Below, you’ll find rosacea-safe products and guidance to help you build an effective skincare routine. Remember to always wear sunscreen during the day, as sun exposure can worsen rosacea symptoms.

Gentle Cleansers

Cleansing is essential to any skin care routine, but for those with rosacea it needs to be gentle. These cleansers are free of common irritants like fragrance and harsh surfactants, helping to remove dirt and impurities without disrupting your skin barrier. Each is formulated to soothe, calm and support sensitive skin, making them safe for rosacea.

Soothing Serums

These serums are formulated with clinically studied ingredients shown to benefit rosacea-prone skin. These formulas feature ingredients like niacinamide, azelaic acid and hyaluronic acid, which help calm visible redness, strengthen the skin barrier and deliver lasting hydration. Together, they strengthen the skin barrier and promote a calmer, healthier skin environment.

Sensitive-Safe Moisturizers

A gentle moisturizer is essential for managing rosacea-prone skin. These formulas are free from common irritants and are designed to hydrate without clogging pores or triggering flare-ups. They help strengthen the skin barrier, lock in moisture and reduce sensitivity, leaving skin feeling calm and balanced. If your skin is particularly sensitive, the National Rosacea Society awarded the Senté Dermal Repair Cream and the RescueMD DNA Repair Complex the Seal of Acceptance for their ability to hydrate and heal even the most rosacea-prone skin.

Redness Covering Makeup

Makeup can be part of a rosacea-friendly routine when chosen with care. These formulas are gentle, non-irritating and free from common triggers, making them safe for sensitive skin. Mineral-based makeup is often a good choice, as it tends to be lightweight and soothing. Color-correcting pigments help neutralize visible redness while allowing skin to look even, calm and naturally radiant.
