Infalible by L'oreal. My skin is pretty red also, and this stuff keeps my skin looking flawless!

It's a big misconception to use a yellow based foundation to even out red undertones. It simply gives red skin a pasty look. I suggest using MAC. It comes in neutral, warm, and cool tones. They should have a shade that matches your skin.
However, I suggest that you get samples before purchasing a foundation. Most salespersons aren't properly trained and will try to match the shade to your face, which is a big "no-no". Makeup should always be matched according to your neck NOT your face, or else you'll look like you're wearing a mask.
And the other reason you should get samples is because department stores do not have natural lighting. They all use fluorescent lighting which tends to neutralize colors. So you should go home and apply your make up in natural lighting. (Ex: in a well lit room or outside)

Your best to buy a specialist foundation that is suited to red skin. Foundation which have a green or yellow undertone are best suited for red skin. Ordinary foundation wont tone down the colour, just mask it. xx

ok you will % to bypass with a blush called 30 tweed rose. it somewhat is a channel blush, and it will compliment your gentle brown eyes. because of the fact you have greater of a creamy complexion, the gentle pink, gentle brown, and faint gold speckles in the blush will create a eye-catching combination on your pores and skin. plus, it lasts a quite long term for blush. it won't rub off as certainly as different blushes do, so which you do no longer might desire to stay with it say three times an afternoon. desire that facilitates!!

I highly recommend Prescriptives - they do custom-blending for alot of their products, so you can tell them your exact specifications and they'll blend it for you.
