I am fair complected, with pink undertones. I don't have redness/flushing/broken caps. I'd really like to normalize the pinkness. Do you think that a product with coffeeberry would help? I've read the encouraging reviews for Revaleskin, but it seems to be most effective for rosacea, flushing, and sensitivity. I'd like to stay with topicals, as opposed to laser. Does anyone else have this dilemma? Appreciate your thoughts. |

If you have pink undertones there really isn't a skincare product or treatment that will change that.
As gretchen mentioned you could try a yellow tone powder but I don't think it will make much a difference. A few different companies make them.
I'd say embrace your cool toned complexion |

Hi Hikerbee
Jom has already linked one of the threads. Here is one on RevaleSkin:
http://www.essentialdayspa.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=40430&highlight=revaleskin
I really like the Revaleskin. I don't have constant redness, but I do get flushing. I strongly believe that it is hormone related. I still have fair skin with pink undertones. When I was younger, I didn't have the flushing I do now, but I certainly blushed.
While yellow pigmented makeup and/or foundation will help, you have to watch you don't over-do it or it will make you look sickly - been there !! I now use mineral makeup foundation and LOVE it, but prior to using it, I really liked Lancome's Teinte Idole foundation. I found it lasted all day and did a great job of covering up any pink in my skin. I currently use Meow Cosmetics foundation. It still gives me great coverage, but feels like I'm not wearing anything. I also think it is much better for my skin. My skin has been a lot healthier since I switched to mineral makeup foundation. |

Jom, have you ever tried any of their products? There isn't a lot of information on the site. I found that a little unusual for a natural product line.
I used to use green to conceal redness; I now find that yellow works much better. |

I've only used their bath products. The detox bath and the milk bath. I have never used their makeup. |

Just FYI, here's some information about the founder and CEO of the company.
