Tips for Visiting a Salon or Day Spa

Especially when under stress, a day of pampering at the salon or day spa can be a good way to relax and unwind. But if the itinerary includes a facial, it is important to take steps to ensure a positive experience.

•  Call ahead. Do a little research and find out if the salon or spa you are considering has licensed aestheticians who have worked with patients with skin conditions such as rosacea.

Contest Seeks Selfies From Rosacea Patients

The National Rosacea Society is getting behind a national contest called Break Up With Your Makeup, which is designed to educate the public about the signs and symptoms of rosacea and how to proactively manage the skin condition. Rosacea patients are encouraged to submit a no-makeup selfie (a close-up photograph of the face) to show others how they stay confident even when they are suffering a flare-up. The winner will receive a trip for two to the 2015 New York Film Festival.
