Long-term skin complaints such as eczema, which originates from the blood stream, dermatitis, from external sources such as jewellery, and psoriasis can be traumatic to live with and the symptoms vary from dry flaky skin to open wounds, bleeding and itching. In some cases the cause of these conditions is unknown, however, most sufferers say that stress, anxiety and a lack of well-being contributes to a bout. Make-up can be applied but if the skin is sore it is better to let it heal naturally.

Camouflage make-up, such as thick foundations and concealers which block out colour and irregularities on the skin, give the appearance of an even tone. Pick products that are exactly the same as your skin tone and base and use both to eradicate uneven pigmentation. This make-up works wonders on darker birthmarks like port wine stains or strawberry marks. If you want to diminish redness follow the usual concealing rules but use this unique thick consistency make-up instead.
