Red Faced

[Ric.ror]

I’m ginger with white skin and a tendency to a ruddiness about the nose and cheeks (also spots on my nose when I apply too much moisturiser). Can anyone recommend something to cool the flushing?
Thanks in anticipation

Use a green primer under your makeup

[Islay]

I have used this one - its expensive but there are others available

I'm naturally red haired with white skin and Islay is right correct with a green primer but I also use Holland and Barratt Manuka Honey skin rescue as a face cream which I fancy helps fractionally x

I too have red hair and very pale skin but funnily my redness has reduced this last year - I now get away with just using a concealer on my face and a bit of powder to hide it.

Oooh I might try that one Islay, is it good?

I have 2 that I use depending on how my skin is either
Maxfactor master touch or Mark by Avon.
The Mark one is slightly heavier and is very pale which I use during the winter when my freckles are not so bright - but the maxfactor one I use in spring/summer when I have more freckles due to the sun
I love then and always have them in my makeup bag
Oh and only No17 compact powder in translucent

Be careful not to over-apply that green primer though ;-)

Thanks for your answers
I wonder if you could recomend a cream to cool things down too

Try natural yoghurt as part of your routine - blot on and allow to sit then rince with cold water.
Get a good muslin cloth and a gentle foaming cleanser and use cold water - that has help no end with me.
Also Clarins hydration mask used once a week has helped with the improvement.
Unfortunately the redness never truly goes we can just try and improve things x

Can only think of ice-cubes in the cistern ?

Kvalidir - if you look on FB at my latest pictures you will see - I am only wearing the concealer and powder and no red comes through - I'm pleased with it
