Any tips to lessen redness on the cheeks? Not too much though, as I like to keep some of the color. Thanks! |

Green primer. I like the Dr Jart Tiger Grass products because they have SPF in them and work really well to neutralize redness. |
More sunscreen, less drinking |
Stop drinking. |
Laser - BBL. |
Stop using products that irritate your skin |
Depends on the cause. Is it rosacia or irritation? |
I spent six weeks of the winter doing wind sports on Baja. I got terrible wind burn. It’s basically just recently healed.
I cut out anything irritating like retinol and vitamin c. I used Avene products ( the thermal water and repairing balm at night), Dr Sturm calming serum (expensive but helped a lot), Dr Jart ceramide day cream, squalene oil and Erborian green CC cream. I avoided the sun as much as possible. I did see a derm to make sure it wasn’t dermatitis, an allergy or rosacea. Just a bad burn that I kept inflaming by being in very windy conditions. |
Laser
Microneedling Skinceuticals Phyto Corrective Gel All expensive but all work. Very little downtime for the top two and numbing cream make them painless. Laser feels like a rubber band snap. Microneedling actually tickles with the numbing cream. |
Appreciate some of the feedback! It's been like this my whole life and multiple specialists confirmed it's just my coloring. I just want to tone down the appearance and I don't mind it that much. |
Green primers like Dr Jart are great and work surprisingly well. |
If you want something topical, ask for a prescription for RhoFade. It reduces redness for about 12 hours. |
I have had a lot of success with Musely's red repair and red rescue lotions. |
It's genetics so nothing works other than trying to cover it with makeup.
