camouflage Makeup

redpoison

I am looking for some camouflage makeup to cover my red cheeks, can you recomend any?

I was told about dermablend, but i weary of paying so much if it wont suit me.. I have sensitive-normal skin... I just want my face to be one color..

Do you know of any samples i could buy? Of any camouflage makeup products please?

Thanks

How red are your cheeks - is it pigmentation or more of a blushing colour?

I've used Dermablend (for acne/scarring) for 5+ years and find it very good when used along with setting powder. If you go to a retailer near you they should have testers.

Have you tried mineral make up? The L'oreal and Max Factor gives good coverage and you can apply more to the area that needs it most. Not so keen on Avon and Rimmel minerals.

I called into Boots yesterday to get some samples. The girl gave me two very generous pots to try, Max Factor (different shade) and Urban something. I much prefer these mineral powders (although they can cause a lot of dust) to the thick foundations. Good luck.

Try going to a make up counter- not so much to buy stuff, but to get tips- its all very well buying camouflage make up, but if its badly applied- trust me, red cheeks will look miles better! Its about toning down rather then covering up- I have seen too many people with makeup "issues" not to suggest you please get some advice!

Most makeup counters are really friendly, and you can easily say "I need some time to think/ I am writing a birthday/xmas/gift list/I want to get everything you have suggested but only have the money for one item, I want to get it all together so will come back when I get to payday"... But having a trained make-up person to do your makeup and give advice can really help.

Hiya, estee lauder double wear is good at covering most things, go into debenhams/house of fraser/boots and get a sample, I found it to be fantastic - good luck!
