Hi Jenn,
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!!

I use physicians formula green sometimes. First I apply my moisturizer and
then after about 15 sec (after the moisturizer has been absorbed) I apply the
Physician's formula where there is pinkness. I apply it with my index finger
sparingly gently patting and blending. Then I apply a bit of translucent powder
to set it. All in all I think less is more. Use just enough to make your face
neutral.

Hope that helps and good luck!
Enjoy your big day no matter what! Remember it's OK to be a blushing bride!

All the best,
Melissa

Evening all,

I am new to the group and I have just been diagnosed with Rosacea. For a couple
of months now I have been getting out of the shower and I would have these areas
that were really red and painful with little bumps. My fiance has been asking me
to see a dermatologist but I kept saying it was just dry skin. I am a teacher
and I had a really bad semester. So by the end of the day my face and ears would
be bright red. I just brushed it off to being warm in my classroom. After trying
cream after cream and washing my face with everything known to man I decided to
go to the doctors. Sure enough, he told me it was Rosacea.

I explained to him that am getting married in three weeks and I didn't want to
have these nasty bumps or redness all over my face. He prescribed me Galderma
and told me that I would need to use it for 2 weeks before I see any results.
The redness has gone somewhat but the bumps are still there. I have been
drinking water like a mad woman to see if that would help clear up my face. I
was wondering, since my face is VERY sensitive, if anyone knew of anything that
would help clear up the bumps a little faster?

Also, I did research about make up for the redness and I read that a green base
helps get rid of the red. I bought some Physicians Formula and tried it....but
my face has a green glow. Tell me what I am doing wrong!!!

Thanks,

Jenn
