Because of rosacea’s unpredictability and visibility, it can feel incredibly frustrating. It’s usually diagnosed by facial redness, visible blood vessels and small pus-filled bumps often in the central area of the face.

Dermatica, a monthly skincare subscription created by dermatology experts after an online consultation, has rosacea-specific formulas.
