Does anyone know any good foundations that cover up redness? As you can hopefully see in the pic I get quite red cheeks. But as well as the redness I also have quite dark freckles. I need a foundation that can cover the redness but without completely covering the freckles (as this makes my face look a bit sickly since I can't really contour cos my face is so pale that bronzer looks like smudged dirt) thanks in advance and sorry for the weird expression haha.

I would try a green tinted primer! Smashbox has a nice one!

I like revlon colorstay if you don't pile it on because it thick enough to cover redness but shear enough it won't cover freckles ( I've struggle with redness too) but if your pale make sure you get a light shade.

"It cosmetic Bye bye redness"
A few beauty gurus use this. I know one has bad redness and the foundation covers up really good!

Green primer will cancel out the redness before out put on your foundation or bb cream.

Try the Clinique super primer base, it helped my redness and doscolourations within a week of starting to use it :) hope that helps.

NYX has a green tinted primer if you're looking for a dupe for the Smashbox one :)
I also have freckles, and one of my favorite foundations is Rimmel Match Perfection. It evens out my skin tone but still lets my natural skin and freckles shine through.

I agree with Patricia for the IT cosmetics Bye Bye Redness, but it will be too dark for your skin tone because it comes in one shade and you are very fair. I would try the Covergirl 3-in-1 foundation because it has awesome coverage.
