Make up advice
Kind of embarrassing to post but does anyone know somewhere that does make up tutorials but not high high end make up. I'm 31 and have really red cheeks and pale skin. I've never been able to colour match foundation etc myself as I need a darker colour to cover the red which is then no where near my colouring on my neck and rest of my face.
I'm going through tiktok but can't find anyone with a similar complexion.
I dont also have a lot of spare money to buy different ones to try them out.
I'd love someone to basically go round boots with me and show me what the right products etc are. Starting to get me down as I hate how I look in photos with my child and feel really self conscious about the redness.

Thank you for this. Went with the skin and me to see what they recommend. With your rosacea how did you get the diagnosis? Looking at the symptoms of that, the only thing I can of it is the redness on my face which I think is more my Irish skin as it's never gone away.
Boots do this with their no7 products. You can book an appointment online for free, no product purchase necessary. https://www.boots.com/no7/no7-inspiration-and-advice/no7-book-an-appointment Sounds like the Your Complexion Your Way appointment might suit your needs. Also I have a similar complexion to you with red cheeks and pale skin, and I use a green tinted serum on my cheeks which corrects the redness. I then apply foundation on top. It sounds like you also may, like me, have rosacea so it might be worth investigating that. I used the company Skin & Me with their introductory offer to learn what to use on my skin, and then cancelled the subscription and bought cheaper versions elsewhere.
