10 Reviews: Best Foundation to Cover Redness (Apr 2024)

This foundation glides on like a dream and works to enhance the tone and texture of your skin as it sits, thanks to antioxidants like vitamin E, feverfew, and natural soy. It gives perfect, gorgeous coverage across a wide range of skin types and tones, so your skin appears its best right away. It’s lightweight and has a satiny finish, according to users. Apply it to the skin with a thick blending brush for the best effects.

This semi-sheer makeup covers without being too heavy or too light on your skin. I have sensitive skin that reacts to most brands, causing redness or bumps. This brand is the only brand I’ve found to not cause sensitivity problems. Love it!

Creamy and decadent are two words that best describe this rich formula. It works 24 hours a day and repels everything from humidity to sweat. The texture is velvety, but it’s not thick, and it mixes nicely over uneven patches, redness, and acne. The formula’s ability to adapt to different skin types is enabled by a flawlessly balanced dispersion of pigment and water at high concentrations.

excellent product it is lightweight leave your skin looking flawless not like you're wearing makeup. I definitely would buy it again

Choose this long-lasting foundation for your desired soft-focus finish. It’s also medium to full-coverage, allowing you to tailor your appearance to your specific needs. The oil-free solution is developed with climate-adaptive technology that is resistant to sweat and humidity and won’t clog pores—so it will function on your skin no matter where you are. While some people like to apply with their fingers, a beauty sponge is ideal for getting into those hard-to-reach places.

Obsessed with this new foundation. The coverage is amazing. It fades out dark spots and redness even my skin beautifully. Blends easily and the finish is flawless. I am surprised I was able to grab the right shade online.

A flawless finish is entirely possible as long as you have this hardworking foundation in your arsenal. With this 16-hour formula that resists smudging and transferring, you can get the coverage you desire, even over uneven textures or tones. And, although it does function to give you a smooth complexion, the ultimate effect still appears natural. Plus, it also works like a wonder for sensitive skin.

I was skeptical about this foundation because I suffer from such bad roseaca. I was amazed by how this foundation felt on my skin. No irritation and the coverage is amazing. I only need to use a tiny bit. It feels so soft on my skin and has actually calmed down the redness so much! It’s worth the money.

Laura Mercier’s Flawless Fusion is our next foundation recommendation. It’s a long-wear product that keeps you looking good all day. Coated pigments glide on to provide a medium to full-coverage color that flawlessly evens out skin tone and reduces the appearance of pores and flaws. Weightless texture has the appearance, fit, and feel of a second skin. Skin-fusion technology gives extreme long wear while being comfortable and breathable.

My everyday foundation! I love this and it covers my redness and acne without caking my face. Doesn't seem ever dry out my skin either and lasts all day even when I worked Summer Camps. I also use the Urbay Decay all nighter setting spray and the Laura Mercier powder.

I have never been so happy with a makeup product before!!! This is lightweight and full coverage with sunscreen! I don't usually wear makeup daily, but this product I will to cover my rosacea.

There’s a reason why Armani’s Luminous Silk Foundation has become a cult favorite. This award-winning oil-free foundation provides buildable, medium coverage and a bright, glowy-skin finish for a natural makeup appearance. Micro-fil technology enables color pigments to lie flat for seamless blending and layering. It will become one of your all-time favorite foundations, and it does an excellent job at concealing rosacea and uneven skin tone.

This is the best foundation I have ever used. It looks very natural and makes my skin look flawless. It covers my redness and evens out my skin tone without covering all of my freckles. Highly recommend!

If you haven’t tried Koh Gen Do’s famed Aqua Foundation, we strongly advise you to do so. The medium-coverage, buildable product offers you flawless skin that could easily pass for your own. It is really light, and it blends into the skin to delicately brighten dull spots. It’s not inexpensive, but since a little goes a long way, it lasts far longer than most foundations. This foundation will let you say farewell to any flaw!

This is light coverage that feels weightless on my skin. Covers redness with just the right shade. Does not settle into fine lines or emphasize texture. Similar to MAC face and body foundation but works better with a slightly lighter feel. [...]
