My face is permanently red after variety acne treatments... Do you know how to get my natural face colour back?

Don't exfoliate! Make sure to use a really gentle cleanser, and when you dry your face don't rub it, just like pat the water off lol. Try using a more yellow toned or even green concealer to counteract the red when doing your makeup, and you could even buy a moisturizer made to help with redness such as Eucerins Redness Relief moisturizer or Philosophy's Keep The Peace! And from reviews on MUA I learned that MoM can be used as more than just a primer for oily skin, it can also help counteract redness :)

I used to exfoliate 2 or 3 times a week 😳
Thank you for all the advices!

I did too! I have rosacea and I was exfoliating like CRAZY until my doctor told me it was the worst thing I could do for my red skin. I had no idea bahaha.

Find a product with willow bark. It will calm down the red. Try not to irritate your skin also. Exfoliate once a week unless you are using products that make your skin peel. (Salicylic acid, brightening serums, etc.) Mac concealers are amazing. I had acne that left severe scarring and I have tried so many products from sephora. If you are dealing with scarring, caudalie vinoperfect serum will lighten the spots naturally. Just remember to use SPF everyday! So the spots don't get darker and you don't waste your money. I work at sephora and I have heard so many people complain that their product isn't working, because they are not aware that SPF is a commitment.

Use a green primer under your foundation I use smachbox and it works great. A lot of people say not to mix and silicone primer with a water based foundation but I haven't had a problem. I use Revlon colorstay because it is high coverage and I love that.
