A blush on the cheeks is pretty, but the blotchy, red skin isn’t. Many people have red, uneven skin tones and more than 14 million Americans actually have rosacea. Red cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead characterize rosacea. It also may include acne-like pimples in these areas.

Rosacea is most common in fair-skinned people. It’s nearly three times more common in women than men. There is no cure for rosacea so ongoing treatment is critical.

Obagi Medical has introduced a skin care line called Rosaclear to combat these symptoms. The Rosaclear System uses a complete therapeutic approach to clear and calm the skin and treat rosacea. This is a prescription strength line that has been tested by dermatologists.

A few simple steps each morning and night is all that’s needed. First, the Gentle Cleanser calms the skin while removing irritating bacteria. Next, prescription Metronidazole gel is applied to treat the inflammatory acne. Hydrating Complexion Corrector protects, moisturizes, and reduces redness with calming and anti-inflammatory agents. Last, Skin Balancing SPF 30 is used to protect the skin without irritation. Sun exposure can greatly aggravate rosacea. So whether you are a rosacea sufferer or just have red, uneven skin, Rosaclear will leave you calm, cool, and collected.
