Very Good Coverage for Redness
I am a chronic facial blusher (but i thought I'd add my review just in case it proves useful to rosacea suffers too). I often use this to cover the redness on my face, neck and chest. I ordered the tester kit from their website and picked two shades which I now mix to get a near perfect match.
The formula, is thick and creamy, but you can apply it by dabbing it on thinly and building up layers to achieve the strength of coverage you want.
It is made from ingredients designed to work with even sensitive skins. It lasts a long time and makes you look like you have a flawless complexion, but it does look like you are wearing make-up in sunlight and so it is not a bear skin look, but, if you get the right shade it can look like a 'natural' made-up look.
I found it covers most of my redness when applied thickly and even when applied more lightly, it still greatly tones down any redness to a more acceptable (almost healthy) looking pink tone.
The only concern I have is that it can feel heavy and 'cloggy' if you wear it all day everyday... so I try to alternate using it with a lighter everyday foundation on days I feel I can get away with it.

Rosacea Subtypes
Subtype 1: Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea
characterized by flushing and persistent redness, and may also include visible blood vessels.
Subtype 2: Papulopustular rosacea
characterized by persistent redness with transient bumps and pimples.
Subtype 3: Phymatous rosacea
characterized by skin thickening, often resulting in an enlargement of the nose from excess tissue.
Subtype 4: Ocular rosacea
characterized by ocular manifestations such as dry eye, tearing and burning, swollen eyelids,
recurrent styes and potential vision loss from corneal damage.
Rosacea Stages
Pre-Rosacea
the first cardinal sign of rosacea: blood vessels dilate to more stimuli, open wider and stay open for longer periods of time compared to normal
persons. No visible damage can normally be seen.
Mild Rosacea
begins when the facial redness induced by flushing persists for an abnormal length of time - usually 1/2 an hour or more after a trigger. Those who
have frequent pre-rosacea flushing are highly susceptible to progressing to mild rosacea. Some of the common triggers for a facial flush are heat,
cold, emotions, exercise, topical irritants and allergic reactions.
Moderate Rosacea
as facial flushing becomes more frequent and intense, vascular damage occurs. This can result in long lasting redness, swelling and inflammatory
papules and pustules. Telangiectasia (damaged micro blood vessels, often visible on the surface of the skin) may be noticed in the areas where
flushing is worst.
Severe Rosacaea
characterised by intense bouts of facial flushing, severe inflammation, facial pain, swelling and burning sensations. Sufferers may develop
intolerance to products they were able to use before. Also inflammatory papules, pustules and nodules may be present. Some experience a bulbous
enlargement of the nose, known as rhinophyma. This is just a guide, you may of course experience symptoms outside these ranges.
