Cold compress works and anything with lavender,chamomile,or cucumber. A cucumbers mask will prob be the easiest to find .u can also put it n the fridge before applying it and it feels so good and soothing. Also,to cover it up in the mean time ...use a green concealer ad then I put a flesh tone concealer on top of the green ..THEN my regular foundation and powder. Good luck :)
Peroxide as a daily toner. There is some contention about whether or not it is truly skin safe, from what I can tell this is because it can cause irritation, especially on dry skin. I have been using it one to two times a day to combat redness on my very fair skin and it works like a damn miracle.
Caffeine will constrict the blood vessels underneath your skin. I know Mac Fix+ contains caffeine, as do a lot of eye rollers (yep, I've been known to use my First Aid Beauty Detox Eye Roller wherever I'm red, not just on puffy eyes). Alternatively, you can make your own face mist using green tea. Just keep it in the fridge and spray it on in the morning.
There's a fabulous berry which is in a lot of beauty products which actually reduces the redness in the skin. It's amazing. It completely takes it down. It's called bilberry and comes in creams and serums and oils. Have a look into it.
use a green primer all over your face, and for spots, use a green conceler for more distinguished spots. the primer will tone out red cheeks, or other face redness. the green conceler will help redness with acne.

Oh! And for acne scars. Actually any kind of scar or stretch mark, rose hip seed oil. Every night. Fades it and conditions the skin.
