Rosemarie Ingleton, MD, FAAD

Board-certified dermatologist and founder of ROSE MD. Dr. Ingleton has spent 30+ years practicing general and cosmetic dermatology in New York City, treating patients of every skin tone and type. She is the Medical Director of Ingleton Dermatology in NoHo and a Fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology. Her work has been featured in Vogue, Allure, Essence, Glamour, and Oprah Magazine.

“As with many things in life, my path as a dermatologist didn’t follow a straight line—in a sense, dermatology found me. Growing up in Jamaica, I didn’t know any dermatologists. It was only during a clinical rotation in med school that I discovered my love for helping people feel at ease in their own skin. To me, that’s what it’s all about.”

5 Questions with the Founder

What is your skincare philosophy?

"Simplicity and consistency are key. It’s important to understand how to select products that target your unique needs and give them time to work. The right ingredients will feed your skin and promote a naturally healthy complexion."

What does a typical day look like for you?

“I aim to start and finish my day with the practice of self-care. It begins with meditation and prayer, and then I do some cycling or yoga for exercise. After that, my day gets busy with patient appointments and working on the skincare line. No matter what the day looks like, I finish with good food, reading, and eight hours of sleep.”

What's the biggest mistake people make when it comes to skincare?

“Immediately going for the big name or big price tag without knowing whether it will take care of your skin’s needs. And you don’t have to use several products or follow a lengthy regimen to see results. Sometimes less is more.”

Who has been the biggest inspiration in your life?

“I’m endlessly inspired by my mother. She’s consistent in her path and never gives up. I look to her often and remember where I came from. I want to provide for my sons in that same way.”

What's something people would be surprised to learn about you?

“People tend to think I’m a very serious person because of the field I work in. But I’m easygoing, fun, and relaxed—and I have a silly streak. I always find fun and laughter throughout my day.”
