In an effort to support the 16 millions of people nationwide suffering from rosacea, Galderma Laboratories, L.P. and the National Rosacea Society (NRS) are teaming up to promote greater public understanding of this widespread skin condition and to help sufferers better recognize the symptoms of rosacea and seek professional help. The duo has launched its third annual Break Up with Your Makeup educational campaign and contest designed to empower those with rosacea to stop concealing symptoms and start treating the condition, so that they can feel more confident in their skin.
“Everyone wants to feel confident, but covering up blemishes is a quick fix — not a long-term solution. Some over-the-counter remedies and harsh makeups can actually make the sensitive skin of rosacea worse,” sayid Dr. Doris Day, nationally recognized dermatologist, Galderma consultant and campaign spokesperson. “It’s important for anyone struggling with tough skin days to speak to a dermatologist about finding a treatment that’s right for them.”
From now through May 20, people age 18 and older are invited to submit a no-makeup selfie along with a brief personal skin story through the Break Up with Your Makeup digital hub for a chance to win an all-expenses paid spa getaway for two in sunny Los Angeles. The hub also includes a number of helpful resources including skin care tips and a doctor’s discussion guide to assist those who may have rosacea in finding the right solution for their skin.
