Author and Disclosure Information

Rosacea and acne have been the cause of physical and emotional distress for patients worldwide. Part of the distress has originated from the inability to find products that provide coverage without exacerbating the conditions. This includes understanding the role of certain ingredients with their attendant negative and positive effects. Fifteen years of experience has shown that mineral makeup can play a large part in helping to repair patients’ self-esteem as well as playing a meaningful role in skin improvement.
