So awkward since I'm a straight. Just encase anyones wondering lol.

But seriously where do I begin?

I want to cover up without anyone knowing I'm wearing makeup, or anything you can recommend to cover my skin?

What is the routine?

Do I just apply, is it foundation lol?

I have no clue.

Oh and let's be clear. Thus isn't eyeshadow, mascara or eyeliner. I know what those are and that isn't want I'm taking about of course.

Please help. This is killing me. I have no other options.

Thank you Gorgonite for your post and for sharing your thoughts here. It sounds like you've had a really challenging time with your skin condition lately and the fact that you are not quite sure what products might be helpful makes me think that you haven't found enough support and information available or accessible which must have made this process harder for you.

Changing Faces offers a free Skin Camouflage Service although I am not sure if it would be appropriate for your skin condition you might find it helpful to connect with someone in our skin cam team to get more information about whether their service or products could be helpful . If you would like to explore if this is an option for you, check out changingfaces.org.uk/skin-c... or you can get in touch with the team by emailing skincam@changingfaces.org.uk or calling 0300 012 0276.

Take care,

Eva - ChangingFaces

If you want some coverage/to conceal redness and don't want to wear actual foundation - you could try the DR Jart colour correcting treatment.
