Men and Rosacea: Finding Confidence with Rosalique
Rosacea is a common skin condition that affects millions of people worldwide, and it doesn’t discriminate based on gender. While it’s often associated with women, men can also experience the challenges and insecurities that come with rosacea. It is characterised by facial redness, flushing, visible blood vessels, and in some cases, acne-like bumps and spots called pustules. According to the NHS, rosacea affects both men and women, but it is more common in women. Women may experience rosacea due to hormonal changes and are more likely to see medical attention for their skin concerns, leading to a higher reported prevalence. Men, on the other hand, may have more severe symptoms, potentially influenced by biological factors and societal expectations. Men with rosacea may struggle with self-consciousness, as visible redness can be particularly challenging in a society that can equate reddened or problem skin with illness or even alcoholism. Furthermore, unlike for women, the use of cover-up products by men is still not widely accepted, unfortunately. It’s important to recognise that rosacea is a common condition with many effective solutions available for men.
As mentioned, some people still perceive skincare and makeup products to be exclusively for women. However, we want to challenge these stereotypes and embrace the idea that all individuals, regardless of gender, can benefit from effective rosacea solutions. In fact, we were featured in GQ Espana, where the author passionately shared his love for Rosalique as a transformative tool in boosting his confidence and managing his rosacea. While we believe in the freedom for everyone to wear makeup or coverups, we acknowledge that not everyone feels comfortable with doing so. ‘Seriously, if you’re scared of looking like you’re wearing makeup, I guarantee no one will notice you’re wearing this cream.’
Rosalique 3-in-1 Miracle Formula is specially designed to provide both instant and long-term benefits for managing redness. Its unique formulation includes green microcapsules that are highly effective against redness. The microcapsules contain specialised colour-correcting pigments that help counteract and neutralise redness on the skin. When applied, the microcapsules burst, releasing the pigments that blend seamlessly with the natural skin tone, creating a more even complexion. Rosalique provides a lightweight and natural finish, allowing men to feel comfortable and natural in their appearance.
Incorporating Rosalique into your daily skincare routine is simple and hassle-free. After cleansing and moisturising your skin, apply a small amount of Rosalique to the areas affected by rosacea. Gently blend it into the skin, allowing the formula to adapt and provide a seamless finish. The result? A more even complexion and increased confidence throughout the day. For a complete redness-busting routine, try the Rosalique Evening Duo.
Rosalique is enriched with nourishing ingredients and provides hydration to the skin to promote a healthier and more balanced complexion over time using its 5 natural actives: panthenol, a-Bisabolol, shea butter, zeolite and urea. These work as anti-inflammatories, gentle moisturisers and detoxifiers, for skin that looks and feels calmer in 6-8 weeks. Additionally, Rosalique offers SPF50 protection, shielding your skin from harmful UV rays. The sun can be a trigger for rosacea, therefore it is essential to wear protection. With Rosalique, you can confidently face the sun without worrying about exacerbating your rosacea or risking sun damage.
You can embrace Rosalique as a part of your daily skincare routine and enjoy a more even complexion, increased confidence and the freedom to face the sun without a worry!
