Q: What is rosacea?
A: “Rosacea is an inflammatory disorder of the skin characterized by redness, flushing, blushing and sometimes pustules and papulas, which are like tiny pimples,” says Dr. Lisa Kellett of DLK on Avenue. “It predominantly affects the cheeks, nose and chin but can also appear on the neck and chest. Some patients will also develop rhinophyma, a thickening of the skin on the nose. Rosacea is genetically inherited and found most commonly — but not exclusively — in Caucasians, especially those of Celtic origin. If you have rosacea, avoid skin-care products with glycolic, lactic and salicylic acids, and use a mild cleanser and a sunblock with an SPF of 30 or higher.”

Shoppers Drug Mart has a new prescription for beauty shoppers: This fall, the Canadian drugstore giant will launch Murale, a stand-alone beauty-boutique concept named to suggest the relationship between art and beauty. Unlike the current stores, in which cosmetics share space with detergents and diapers, Murale’s shelves will be stocked strictly with makeup, fragrance and skin-care items from more than 200 lines and feature established brands like Bobbi Brown alongside niche picks like Smiley, a mood-lifting French perfume. Each store will be manned by expert aestheticians and makeup artists outfitted in uniforms created by Canadian designers Oliver Capistrano and Vania Peruzza. The first outpost opens in Ottawa this month, followed by a Montreal flagship, with more stores set to open next year.

With eyes dusted in shimmery-grey eyeshadow, models at Ferragamo looked celestial. This softer spin on the dramatic smoky eye has an understated, ethereal feel, says CoverGirl makeup pro Paul Venoit. Sweep a pale grey on the entire lid and apply a darker shade in the crease, blending up and out toward the temple. Curl the lashes and finish with two coats of volumizing mascara.
