I am so excited to try this. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this will be the solution to impossible to match skin!

As I get older, my rosacea is getting worse....to the point where blush really is not an option much of the time (so sad because I love blush!) I tried it along the areas where it is the worst, and it helped me look a little more normal. I am hoping we add this permanently... ;)

Sometimes I have redness across my cheeks as well--some days are worse than others. I usually do a blend of a concealer and a glow under my foundation. I tried just the Equalizer yesterday, and then foundation, and it really did help! :D I also hope this becomes a permanent addition!

Looking forward to trying this tomorrow! Must have misread the description though because somehow I thought it said something to wear instead of foundation, LOL! Looks a little too green for that.....

Count me as another that wants this to become a permanent resident of the SN product line! I love it and want to buy it in larger quantities!

I too really hope that Equalizer is made permanent! I've used nearly all my little pot up now and hope to be able to replace it with a big pot soon. My skin doesn't need much coverage, just toning down the red patches and sallowness slightly and Equalizer does that perfectly. It also blurs pores and has a kind of luminous/matte finish. Perfect for throwing on my face for the school run!

I really like the way the Equalizer evens out my skin tone and covers the rosacea redness. Unfortunately, the formula does not work with my skin, and slides around on my face within an hour or two like all the foundation formulas (except for All-purpose, which I love). It even slides when I put something over/under it or both. I have weird oily/combination/sensitive skin, so I expect this to work for a lot of other people. I'm also pretty pale, so it's a smidge too dark and green/yellow toned for me, but I expect it will work for a lot of others who aren't too pale or too dark.

I have used this the last couple of days. Yesterday it was under foundation, today over foundation.
I have rosacea that has grown worse as i get older, and this is a great product to subdue the redness. I use it only where I have redness, which is mainly on my right cheek , nose and chin. I prefer this under my foundation, as over it really is too pale for me. I am medium/light in foundation formula and this is still way too pale for even my light times(winter, spring). I would love for this to become a permanent product! I will recommend this to any of my friends that have similar redness issues.
