It’s all well and good that trends like the barely-there coverage and “no makeup”makeup are in since we are all for embracing and enhancing your natural beauty.
That said, how do you embrace your complexion for a “My Skin But Better look” when skin conditions like rosacea, inflammation and blemishes make you want to cover up more?
If the redness won’t quit – and you’re going through buckets of foundation on the reg – here are some products that will not only tamp down and conceal redness caused by acne scars, sunburns and inflammation but also get to the root of the problem by calming and soothing skin.

Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Re-cover SPF 30/PA+++ ($74)

It has been said that tigers roll in centalla asiatica or cica for short to heal their wounds. If it’s good enough for tigers to fix their battle wounds, it’s good enough to soothe redness.
This green-to-beige colour correcting cream is designed to keep your skin calm and also strengthen and protect it from environmental damage. Because it is green in colour, this treatment cream also doubles as a colour-correcting primer to neutralise redness on the face so you can use less foundation and concealer.
Bye Bye Redness Correcting Cream ($52)

Think of this cream as a cross between a colour-corrector and a sheer water-based (water is present in the highest concentration) foundation that works to camouflage redness due to rosacea, psoriasis, eczema and so on.
This skincare-makeup hybrid is also made with complexion-soothing and moisturising ingredients like aloe, avocado, cucumber and chamomile extract to keep the skin in tip-top shape.
Clinique Redness Solutions Daily Relief Cream ($58)

This thick and green-hued moisturiser offers immediate relief to red and fragile skin. Over time, the oil-free cream also helps to combat visible redness with extracts of green tea and vitamin E, while the caffeine and algae extract help to combat irritation. This cream also doubles up as a sunscreen with its SPF 15 formula.
Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer – Colour Correcting Adjust ($57)
image
Like a photo filter, this green-tinted primer helps to create the perfect canvas for your foundation by evening out your skin tone. The silky primer also contains skin-loving ingredients like vitamin E and vitamin A to fight inflamed skin. Don’t be intimidated by its rather dark colour. When applied on the face, it works in the same way as a tinted moisturiser and can be used without the need for foundation on top.
