Red nose

7 replies

I've got a fairly prominent nose (and am not mad about it), which goes red very easily when I'm cold, or exercising, or have had a glass of wine.

Can anyone recommend a colour correcting product to tone down the redness on my nose only? I don't have red skin anywhere else on my face, my skin is generally 'normal', so I don't need a full colour correcting base.

I bought a L'Oreal product called CC C'est Magic- but is more of a foundation and quite orangey, too dark for the rest of my face and looks weird just on my nose.

Slightly niche request, but any recs welcome!

I use Rosalique which is a green concealer that changes to skin tone when applied. It's a bit expensive but you only need a tiny amount so it lasts ages.

Thanks @fruitpastille :)

Second rosalique. Only a little will tone redness down. Also, as well as concealing it is supposed to treat the problem. No idea if that's true though.

Have you seen anyone about possible rosacea? The red nose after alcohol is often rosacea, (I have it too). There are loads of treatments for it now, so worth checking out maybe.

I have a winter red nose from being very cold! I use an NYX green concealer (tiny amount). It’s not perfect but ok

@SmashingPumpkinPatch no had not considered it could be rosacea- not knowing anything about it, I'd assumed since my cheeks aren't affected, it wouldn't be that. But will take a look into it.
