broken capillaries

Post by ladycattat » Thu Feb 03, 2011 5:39 pm

I am pretty lucky....I don't have any real skin *issues*, but I was wondering if you guys could recommend any of Karen's skincare line that covers or shrinks or minimizes red broken capillaries. I have a small patch on each cheek, but Unblush is too green to effectively cover it.
Any suggestions?
Thx

The eye shadow primer - the white creamy one in the round black tub - was an unexpectedly helpful product for me. Stating the obvious, being a primer, it grabs a hold of minerals. I wondered if it'd hold foundation / concealer extra securely covering up broken capillaries. It does! I'm prone to them around my nose and I'll probably inherit them elsewhere too as I age. This primer is in daily use, applied very thinly, to hold the foundation applied over the top and conceal all day. Also works a treat on nasty acne, cystic bumps and red scars. Not so good on the under eye area as it's too thick for my crêpey skin. Didn't do much as an eyeshadow primer but became invaluable as a foundation trouble-spot primer.

I used it too - for special occasions and I was very satisfied with the result. Green concealer is too green on me either.
