    are there any products that actually work at reducing facial redness and even out skin tone..
    have tried the "anti redness" things (like green moisturiser) but they dont work, my cheeks are unbelieveably red and i dont like having to wear foundation every day to cover it up + would give anything to have lovely even skin..
    im on a veryy small budget so hopefully anything suggested isn't overly expensive,
    thanks :)

    you could try something like the mint mineral concealer from every day minerals perhaps?

    Do you know if it works ? Do you still have to wear foundation over it (as in if it leaves a green tinge on your face) ?
    I'm just sick of wasting my money on things that dont work :mad:
    'cause seriously my face is very pale and my cheeks are stupidly red :o:(

    yeah you'd have to wear something over it. I use it on red spots. Then put normal mineral foundation over it which isnt horrible to wear like the liquid stuff.

    you can get a free sample from everydayminerals.com if you want to try it.

    Post is around 5 dollars for the free sample and yes, they're pretty quick in my experience.

    You could learn to love your complexion. Sounds like you have gorgeous peaches and cream skin.

    nah my face is really uneven, my cheeks (the whole hing not just the apples) are very red, and the rest of me is very white.. and if im out in the wind / cold too long i get more random red patches (nose etc).. veryy annoying :(

    yeah i get that too sometimes. I find mineral foundation in a pale shade gives great coverage & i also use benefit bluff dust- a yellow coloured powder that evens out red. Bobbi brown or mac have yellow based foundations which are meant to help.

    thanks for all the suggestions..

    but is there anything that could get rid of redness and/or even out the rest or my skin tone that i wont have to wear foundation with..

    sick of putting it on every morning :o:(

    i know clinique do an anti-redness range or else i remember seeing eucerin cream etc. advertising something similar as I know you said you were on a budget. You should get eucerin in boots. However, tbh dont know if they actually work.

    Is it possible that you have rosacea or eczema? It might be worth seeing a doctor for.
