it's not rosacea, just some flushing on cheeks and redish complexion around nose. also i heard that a toner to gradually darken skin is good (not tanning lotion, but something light). any one know of a good product for either, or maybe one that does both???

Is it always red? Is it from sunlight, from blushing from embarrassment or stress? Or do you just have pink-toned skin? I would not use the tanning lotion on your face -- which is what it sounds like you're talking about. A toner is like a liquid you wipe on a clean face to moisturize, clean, sooth, etc. You probably need to just soothe your skin. Be gentle with it. Use a sunscreen, don't overdry it (even if you have acne), and stay away from harsh products that contain alcohol, benzoyl peroxide, or alpha hydroxy acid. If it's very problematic, go see a dermatologist because you might have a condition or an allergy. In the meantime, this site is good and has lots of articles on skin issues from someone who understands the chemistry and biology behind skincare and your body: http://www.cosmeticscop.com

You might want to try a Mineral powder foundation. It doesn't feel like you have anything on and it looks the most natural. I use Arbonne's. It's pure and about half the price of Bare Minerals brand. You can shop online at http://www.arbonne.com (you'll need a consultant ID, mine's 16459642)
Arbonne also has a WONDERFUL men's skin care line. It's called NutrimenC Re9. I can mail you a free sample of it if you're interested in trying it. It's designed especially with men in mind and how things like shaving, testosterone, and exposure effect men's skin.

first wipe your face with a little chilled witch hazel found in the band aide isle usually next to the rubbing alcohol then try applying a hypo allergenic tinted moisturizer for sensitive skin check the acne isle or women's cosmetics isle
