I’m going through chemotherapy and I’ve noticed my freckles and red marks have become darker, and my skin isn’t as good as normal.
It’s difficult to find a foundation that covers without looking heavy or caked on. Any ideas would be helpful. I am 52.

I asked Lesley Rees of the charity Look Good, Feel Better for her advice on this one.
She says, “Match your foundation to your skin tone rather than the freckles. Apply a sheer layer making sure to blend all the edges and beneath the jawline.
Then, instead of using a concealer, apply another layer of foundation using a press/pat/roll application on the areas that are troubling you. A dusting of translucent powder will help hold the foundation in place.
Make sure your last sweep is downwards to lay the facial hairs flat.”
