My face has a lot of redness. Like in my cheeks forehead and chin. Basically my whole face! Hahahah I was wondering how you ladies hide or neutralize that? Either in make up or skin care.

I typically do a mask with oatmeal or Aloe Vera ( or both. )
I also use non-comedogenic oils ( Jojoba, Argan, Rosehip ) to help soothe my skin so that my face is free of redness.
The products in your current skin care/make up routine may be irritating your skin and causing redness. Alcohol & fragrances ( plant extracts as well ) usually contribute to redness as they are all irritants.

I agree with Kitty! Argan is one of my faves!
Boscia has a Blue Calming Mask which over time helps with redness. I love it during the summer because its really cooling! Feels good when you don't have A/C(:
Also if you find that it is product induced redness, Ole Henriksen has a moisturizer called Nurture me. Its really good for overworked/ irritated skin. Even just sensitive skin! Smells like Creamsicle too lol.

As far as makeup goes, Any foundation with decent coverage should get rid of the reness on its own! I have redness on my cheeks and I like to stick to a medium coverage foundation. All the ones I use have cover it perfectly fine. If you use powder, pat it on rather than rubbing it or sweeping it. Also some natural haired brushes can irritate the face to try a synthetic brush instead.
Stila has a CC cream that starts out green then it changest to your skin color, I love that one! Also Tarte has a CC clay primer and it has green and purple as well as flesh color, really good at neutralizing. It gives good coverage too but just set it.
