Red Patches Face redness often signals skin inflammation because of “conditions including rosacea, eczema and acne as well as irritations such as rashes, allergic reactions and sun damage,” says Pooja Rambhia, M.D., a dermatologist at UnionDerm in Greenwich, CT, and New York City. FAST FIX Apply a green-tinted color corrector before makeup to neutralize red areas; top with a medium- to full-coverage foundation to even skin tone, says Carolina Gonzalez, a celebrity makeup artist in New York City. CORRECT IT To help prevent and quell redness, opt for a gentle, fragrancefree cleanser and a barrier-repairing moisturizer with ceramides and anti-inflammatory ingredients (niacinamide, green tea, azelaic acid), Dr. Rambhia suggests. If you have chronic redness, see a dermatologist for treatment options, which include prescription topical skincare and specialized lasers. Brown Spots…

Q: What’s the difference between a whole-body deodorant and a regular one? —ANN MARIE D. A: While traditional deodorants and antiperspirants are formulated for underarms, “whole-body deodorant is designed for other areas that tend to trap odor and sweat, like the soles of the feet, around the groin and under the breasts,” says Omer Ibrahim, M.D., a dermatologist in Chicago. “Unlike many underarm deodorants, their main purpose is to mask odor, and most do not contain the antiperspirant ingredient aluminum to block sweat.” (Avoid ones made with aluminum or baking soda, which can irritate, he advises.) Full-body deodorants come in cream, spray and solid-stick form and usually have a soft finish on skin.

BLUSH—FOR EYES! Blushes of all kinds have been having a major moment with celebs, on social media and beyond. But blush is no longer just for cheeks — makeup brands and artists are using it to enhance eyes too. Let the powder or cream blush in your makeup bag do double duty, creating a fresh look that brightens skin. GH LAB NOTE For the most natural effect, opt for neutral blush shades like peach, soft rose and mauve in matte or subtly radiant finishes. Blend a sheer layer on eyelids from lashlines up to creases.
