What is the best water/sweat proof foundation for Dermatitis/Rosácea?

I suffer from dermatitis on my face which some people call rosácea. I usually use the Makeup Forever stick foundation but it doesn't cover up all of the redness and red patches on my face. What would be the best foundation to cover all the redness? It has to be waterproof and sweat proof because I sweat a lot [hot flashes] due to menopause. Thanks.

Check out the redness rescue line from Jurlique. Since I switched my skincare to this line I don't have to worry about covering up redness as much because there is a lot less to begin with.

Thanks so much. I’m going to try this and see if it works for me as well as it’s worked for you. I am aware that what works for one may not work for the next person, but I’ll give it a try. Thanks so much.

It bye bye redness is awesome and hasn't irritated my skin for at least a year now. I had a learning curve applying it but have settled on the Beauty Blender with a smidgeon of oil works for me. Go for it!

Thanks. I’ll try that too, and see how that works for my skin. Thanks a bunch.

I use bare minerals/matte and I have rosacea subtype 2, with a very oily t zone, but dry/sensitive cheeks. Mineral or natural make up is best for rosacea. I want to try bye bye redness by it. I've seen lots of good reviews/you tube how to's on that product as far as covering up rosacea patches/redness! Good luck!

I’ll try it. I’ll try anything at this point. I hope it works. Thank you.

If you're happy with the Make Up For Ever foundation you're using except for the lack of redness coverage, then I highly recommend using MUFE's green primer underneath. I've got pale skin, and it does wonders for covering my rosacea - it just makes my skin look like itself minus the redness.

RE: Re: What is the best water/sweat proof foundation for Dermatitis/Rosácea?

Yes, I love Make Up Forever. I’ll try your primer and see how that works with my skin. I hope it works. Thanks.

I've had great luck with Tarte's Rainforest of the Sea foundation.

 

It covers really well but doesn't feel heavy or mask like. It also stays put! I've worn it to to the beach and swimming and during very hot sweaty days and it doesn't budge!

RE: Re: What is the best water/sweat proof foundation for Dermatitis/Rosácea?

I’ll will give that one a try as well. I’ve been given so many options. I will give them all a try and see which one works the best with my skin. Thank you very much.
