This CoverFX Primer soothes redness almost immediately

When it comes to my skin, I’m lucky: I’ve never suffered from any serious skin problems like acne or eczema, and for the most part my skin tone is fairly balanced. That said, I am terribly prone to redness. My face turns the same shade of tomato red whether I’m working out a 45-minute spin class or just walking outside on a windy day. (Seriously, a friend once asked me if I’d just gotten a chemical peel, when in reality I’d just been walking around in the cold air for half an hour.)

Because of this, I have become accustomed to using soothing skin care products to reduce the redness. However, in an effort to simplify my entire beauty routine, I’ve hit the… CoverFX Stress Remedy Primer to soothe my skin — even on days when I don’t wear makeup.

CoverFX has been one of my favorite makeup brands for years (I still religiously use my six-year-old bottle of their highlighting products) Improving drops). After a three-year hiatus, they’re back with super-powerful, skin-loving formulas this primer is one of the main highlights. The three-in-one product skillfully neutralizes redness, soothes the skin And ensures that makeup stays in place all day. I love a good multitasker!

I especially like it great for combating redness for two reasons: 1. It has a slight green tint, and if you’re at all familiar with color theory, you know that green neutralizes redness, so when I put this on the skin, it offsets my natural pink tint. 2. I also think the refreshing, cooling feeling helps reduce redness (and it feels like a tall glass of water for more skin!).

While I can’t attest to its makeup-lengthening ability (I don’t normally wear foundation), dozens of reviewers say it has changed the way they do their makeup forever. “It really helps my makeup apply more smoothly,” writes a customer. “My problem areas are always around the nose and the inside of the cheeks: my foundation doesn’t apply very smoothly there, so I resorted to a primer. When I have this on my foundation glides on much smoother and I don’t see the pores or patchy areas.

Regardless of whether you wear makeup daily or not, this redness-fighting primer could be your answer to smoother, calmer skin – it certainly was for me!
