It's true, I'm make up mad and when I'm not writing my weekly column in Scotland's best read Sunday newspaper The Sunday Mail or my Beauty Spot page at 5pm you can find me with brush in hand working on a blushing bride. www.craigalexanderwilson.co.uk and www.createthedream.co.uk www.5pm.co.uk

Feeling Flush?.....What a relief

Every now and then I get a client who, well,....... lets just say, their cheeks are more than a little rosy. I've tried all the remedies up until now even the horrid green lotions and potions didn't really make that much of  a difference. I came across DR Nick Lowe's Redness Relief calming Cream when a bride to be expressed her love of it. After showing me before and after pictures I thought I'd give it a try. Now it has taken me a few weeks and a willing helper later to come up with the results and both myself and my lesser flushed friend(who shall remain nameless) were well impressed.

This protective calming cream is packed with natural soothers to cool and target skin prone to redness and as it states proudly on the box 84% of subjects reported a reduction in red skin tones and 82% reported a more smooths skin.

This slightly tinted creams helps to minimise red tones and has cooling menthol. It worked well as a base for make up as you will still have to apply foundation and concealer at first and depending on how angry your skin looks. It isn't the richest so you may want to continue using your current day and night cream. Providing they are suitable for your skin type.


Arnica , Chamomile and Allatonin are powerful soothers while Ferulic Acid is a naturally derived phytochemical to protect against UV damage. With the techie bit over and our findings to be fab its up to you to give it a go. At the decent price of £15.31 you wont have to be flush either. Available from Boots
