Make up for redness

Any suggestions please for what works for red/flushed cheeks. I am using Dr Jart which has some effect but my glowing redness beams hrough when I am overheated/ stressed etc.
I am very pale skinned, so need to be careful that a product doesn't make the skin look orange. I don't have rosacea. My skin is normal but the blushing /redness is embarrassing

The loreal cc cream is very good. Has great coverage with small amount

Erborian redness correct cream (it’s green) is very good

Seconded. This is really good.

The new Tropic CC cream is apparently very good as my friend has just started using it.

I really like Altruist anti-redness SPF50. I’ve been using it for a couple of years (tried Rosalia, didn’t like it - too thick and slightly too dark for my skintone) and used to mix it with it Aveeno oat moisturiser for my itchy skin. The normal one is a bit dark for my skin, which is why I used to ‘dilute’ it with Aveeno, but there’s a lighter version now, which is ideal. And I’m glad I’m now getting full SPF50 from it now.

Anyway, it controls the redness really well.

What cleaners and moisturiser do you use? I only ask as I suffered a lot of redness and turns out it was caused by fragrances in my other products

Cetaphil cleanser and I use Eucerin or Dr Jart face creams with SPF
