I have always had rosy cheeks. People have called it "cute" but it's frustrating. I want my skin to all be the same color, but even when I apply foundation and use skin evening/brightening face products, nothing helps. I just want a skincare product that will maybe not completely eliminate the ruddiness but at least tone it down. Can anyone help?

Same here I use sephora foundation and put powder over top but I leave the top of my cheek bone so it looks like I just came in from the cold😊

My redness is all down my face, not just my cheeks unfortunately

Neutralize with yellow. find a yellow corrector that is your skin tone not lighter or darker. then apply foundation over :-)

Try to find a green primer to use under you're makeup. I know you're probably thinking that's weird, but the colors are opposites so they'll cancel each other out and help get rid of redness. I have one that I use sometimes if I have a red spot and it's loréal magic anti-redness correcting primer. Hope this helps!

I've tried all kinds of green concealer and I swear it still shows through. I'm looking more for a skincare product that would fix the problem rather than makeup to cover it, you know?

Same problem! my cheeks, nose and chin are red. and everything else on my face when I start to get warm or drunk. I use a yellow based foundation and that helps a little bit...at least enough to brighten me up, but red cheeks still poke thru. red lipstick just makes me look like a frigging tomatoe!

My skin gets inflamed red (rosacea 😒) and the only brand that seems to work for me is Avene. I'm not sure what stores carry it, but I always order from DermStore. I feel like dealing with redness is a lot of trial and error. I've tried the Clinique Redness Solutions moisturizer and it made my skin worse. Definitely ask for a sample if you can.

Try a calming serum and cream, First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream AND Anti Redness Serum

Under your foundation, I recommend using Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer in the shade Neutralizer (a very yellowy shade) which will try to cover the red up!

Just apply on red areas and blend☺️

Omg I have really bad rosacea lol and I second Traci's suggestion of the FAB Ultra Repair Cream, she also suggested I try something called "Prosacea" and it has been working really well :). Also I've noticed yellow toned concealers / primers / whatevers hide my redness much better than green which just makes me look sickly lol.
I haven't found a permanent solution for the redness though it's something I've been dealing with since I was a child!

I didn't post this but to everyone who commented: THANK YOU! I have to deal with the struggle of trying to cover up super red cheeks every day! Hopefully not anymore!

I also have really red cheeks and I found out (about a year ago ) that I was using products for the wrong skin type!! I was always told I had oily skin (so I used product for oily skin) but I actually have combo skin. so my read cheeks are in fact the result of many years of dehydration.

So I use a really hydrating cream,for,that zone and it reduces a lot of the red! but I think I'll always have them even if it's wwwaaayyy better now
