Hey everyone! So I have a problem that I've been struggling with, well since forever and I'd like to know some advice that could help me!
I'm 16 and I've been wearing foundation since I've been about 10-11 and lately I've been really getting into makeup and making sure I look good, and my problem is my redness! When I go foundation shopping I obvs look hard for the right colour and I'll test it on my neck and get a store employee in the makeup section to help me out too but EVERY TIME after I put foundation on, there's a pretty noticeable difference between my neck and face. Of course I'll go back thinking it's the wrong colour and get a lighter one but same thing happens! Idk if I'm allergic to foundation, or it really is the wrong colour (I doubt it tho!) but I just want the redness to go away so everything looks one colour!
Would you guys mind helping me and telling me what might be wrong and giving me tips!! Thanks!!

It Cosmetics has a product called "Bye Bye Redness" that works well.

Are you setting it with a powder that's the wrong shade?
