I have very noticeable red cheeks that look irritated sometimes. Any products or homemade facial masks or routines. Or if you have the same issue what do you do that really works? help please :)

You might have rosacea.. I'm not a doctor though.

If foundation is covering it enough, try putting concealer on before the foundation! Don't use any lotions that are scented, those always make mine more red. Outside of my makeup, I only use a non scented moisturizer for sensitive skin. That has helped me a lot. Also don't wash your face with harsh or too drying of products!

I know how you feel. I have really red cheeks too. I like the Velocity moisturizer from Mary Kay. It gets rid of redness temporarily but... I don't know.

I do too! Try rubbing a couple drops of Visine redness reducing eye drops! Also I use a clarisonic which I have seen improvements over time!

Try mixing cucumber juice with water and rub it over your face...Let it sit for a few minutes before washing off...A mixture of milk and oatmeal helps reduce redness too...leave it on for 10-15 mins...Clinique has a great redness solution line for the same problem...gud luck :)

I have really red cheekiness too, it's from karatosis Polaris so I can't really get rid of it but what I've been doing and I think it's really helping is I use bio oil and coconut oil on my face and lather it on right before bed and it helps a lot. I would say though you should probably see a dermatologist (if that's possible for you) first because they can give you the best lotions that will really help! Also like lynzie said anything with green will counteract the redness and then apply foundation over it but I rarely do this because foundation is enough for me, but nyx makes a green primer for half the cost of the smashbox one and works just as good! I would also deff recommend the Clinique line if you can afford it but these things will only help if you have a problem like rosacea, something like what I have those redness reducing products won't help.. Only what the dr gives will- so that's why I deff recommend you see a specialist before you waste money on gimmicky products that won't work! :)
