If your face is red, please come in

I have such uneven skin tone and its mostly red (not rosacea) and I CANNOT find anything that evens it out. Other than that, and being unbearably dry, I don't really have any blemishes. What do you use to hide the redness???? I can't find a foundation or BB cream that REALLY works.

I have a decent amount of broken blood vessels in my cheeks that make my cheeks look red and uneven. i just started doing Photofacial laser treatments (there was a groupon) and its working really well.

Re: If your face is red, please come in

Have you tried the Smashbox primer- the green one?
That is supposed to help even out the redness...

i get this after showers, I am probably too rough with facial cleansers.

i use Philosophy Lasting Hope and it helps! I use it before makeup and have no problems covering with basic foundation

I have the same issue and I use Laura Mercier Tinted moisturizer and Bare mineral on top of that (bother from Sephora) and so far it covers a good amount of it.

Re: If your face is red, please come in

I just started using Rodan & Fields Soothe daily regimen. It has CHANGED my skin tremendously. I have absolutely no dryness, no inflammation, and my redness is significantly less so that my makeup actually covers it! Also, I used to feel like I needed to exfoliate my face at least 2x a week. I haven't needed to exfoliate in almost a month! I LOOOOVE it.

Re: If your face is red, please come in

I've been using aveenos face wash and Moustriser, the calming one, and my face is soo much better. I can even go out without makeup if I wanted and its not that bad, but even just a light coverage makeup makes it gone! It's the best!

i have redness too and my dermotologist said it actually is rosacia . I have been using clinque even better. It makes your hole face look one color.

I *love* this tinted moisturizer. It's so smooth and not cakey at all like I experienced with other ones I've tried before. Just hate that the tip leaks so I put a tiny piece of tape over it each time.


I use the Smashbox green primer (doesn't really help the redness but I like the smoothness), with the Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer. I let that dry and then I pat Clinique concealer on the worst bits - around my nostrils, under my lower lid, chin, any blemishes. When I finish my eyes, I put NYX powder on.

I use the Physicians Formula green primer. I've had the Smashbox one too, and I like this better. My skin is insanely red.
