If you suffer from skin blemishes, scars or rosacea, you know how difficult it is to make your face look fair and even. However, there are some easy ways to neutralize red tones on your face and get rid of those issues. Head to your local pharmacy or beauty supply supplier for some essential tools needed to combat blue redness. First, you’ll need to choose a foundation that’s right for you.

Opt for a light, whipped foundation that is oil-free and can be easily applied with a cosmetic sponge. Match the shade to your neck and chest color to make sure you pick the right shade, as red faces are harder to match. Choose a concealer stick or wand in the same shade, as well as a pressed powder. However, the secret ingredient for a perfect face is a green neutralizing stick, which is sold in most beauty supply stores. This stick looks like a tube of mint green lipstick and will help cover the worst redness on your face. Also pick up a green tinted powder with a brush applicator.

Once you’ve gotten home, wash your face with a moisturizing cleanser and warm, not hot, water. Hot water can easily aggravate an already red face, so stick with a lukewarm temperature. Use the green concealer stick to draw light marks over the reddest spots, including the outside of the nostrils, chin and cheeks. Blur until no longer visible. Then, gently apply the green powder all over your face to neutralize and set the tone. Use your natural concealer under your eyes and apply foundation with a cosmetic sponge all over your face. Set everything with the pressed powder, and apply the rest of your makeup as usual. Goodbye, redness!
