Ever been in a rush and not had the time for makeup, but also not had the confidence to go without because of rosacea symptoms? Galderma Laboratories, L.P. is trying to help YOU Break Up with Your Makeup and let your natural beauty shine through!
Galderma’s Mirvaso® (brimonidine) topical gel, 0.33%* is the first and only FDA- approved treatment developed and indicated for the persistent facial redness of rosacea. Facial redness is a common symptom of rosacea, a chronic, inflammatory skin condition that affects an estimated 16 million Americans. Instead of helping to treat it, most of the ads and articles I see out there are telling you to just cover it up. No one should be a slave to their makeup! In fact, certain cosmetics can actually exacerbate rosacea symptoms.
Just apply Mirvaso Gel to your face, evenly as a thin layer, avoiding the eyes and lips, once daily and it may start working in as little as 30 minutes. Mirvaso Gel won’t just cover up redness, it may reduce redness for up to 12 hrs. Talk to your doctor to see if Mirvaso Gel is right for you.
