    Default Facial Product Or Procedure That Takes Out All Pink Tones

    Have any of you found a facial product that takes out all pink tones? My face is naturally pink except for early in the morning. Its doubt its rosacea, but I'm not sure. Its not the lupus butterfly rash. (Though I'm pretty sure I had both of those when I was much younger). Its just my entire face turns kind of pink.

    However, the skin on my entire body is pale and does not really turn pink (unless exposed to hot water), and I'd really like to have my face match my body. The only way I can achieve this is by wearing heavy coverage foundation, but would prefer not to do that.

    I once read a Dita Von Teese interview where she talked about how she had the same issue, and was told a million times it would never go away. After seeing a bunch of dermatologists, she finally found one in Orange County that gave her a px creme and then the pinkness never came back. But I have no idea what the product was that he/she px'd her! And said it was a one-time-course treatment with a pill (px) and lotion (px) and it was gone forever. (Besides that, I know she likes Darphin & La Mer products, and she wears a heavy foundation.) Does anyone know who her dermatologist in Orange County is???

    How can I get rid of the pinkness in my face without makeup?

    Well, if you could, you should really start w/the dermatologist. It might be some type of sensitivity, or just your skin tone that happens to react/change tone..my mom was light like you, I think she was kinda like that..
    Other than the derm. dr. which I highly suggest, I know there's products that calm the skin, the herb feverfew comes to mind, oatmeal (mainly for the body)
    Finally, there's some products that are tinted, they don't show the tint on your face, I think it's like a tinted primer, my skin's somewhat sallow, so if I remember right, a green tinted one was suggested, again, it does not show up green/or whatever color, it counteracts the color you don't want to normalize.

    I've been to a dermatologist probably more than any other doctor in my life. They don't really do much for me, or the ones I have seen. That's why I want to know who Dita's is.

    Tinted moisturizers or powders don't do anything for the pink.

    Nevermind! I found the information on a forum from someone who talked to her, and got her dermatologist's name. Yay

    If you get a better understanding of her treatment, will you post details? I hate my pink tones. I currently use Smashbox's green primer, but I'd rather a more permanent option.

    She was px'd a pill and a lotion and it got rid of it. Its not like... pink undertones. Its like... skin that turns pink when irritated, which is what mine is. You just need to find a derm who will px you medical-grade stuff so it goes away.
