Skin Care Help

I posted in the Facebook group, but I wanted to post here too.

I have really red skin.  Like, really really red.  I have been using a Murad Cleanser, and Caudalie serum and moisturizer, but it's not helping with the redness.  I even use the Makeup Forever primer that is supposed to dull redness.  I used to use the Smashbox one, but it did nothing to hide the redness.

I am wondering if there is a mask, or a moisturizer or some kind of product that will help hide the redness.  I hate it.  Nothing covers it up, and there are two big spots right on my jawline (on either side of my face).  Any suggestions?

Hm, no experience, but have you seen a derm? It could be rosacea, that was just my first though. They could probably prescribe something that would help more than regular skincare.

I was going to say the same as aimeefarrahfowler, have you checked to make sure it's not rosacea?

[origamimommy]

That could be it, but it doesn't bother me at all. It's just splotchy

Ditto the other ladies. Maybe have it checked out origamimommy? Good luck!

Is the primer you use tinted green? A green base will neutral the red and then you cover with your regular foundation.

Yes it is! It's driving me crazy. I went to sephora and got a bunch of samples to try. I'll call my derm!

Thanks laides!

Calling your derm is a good idea. My mom had laser correction on her skin when I was in high school and the derm prescribed her a special green lotion to cover her face since the redness from the laser lasted months. Hopefully your derm can prescribe you something similar.

When I had a mild case of rosacea I used Clinique redness solutions products. It helped to cool the skin down and the greenish primer would mask the redness.

Have you tried Bare Minerals? It's really improved my skin (acne).
