Women used to desperately try to hide their freckles with thick foundations and concealers, but I think freckles are a unique and beautiful addition to a person's look. While you may still be looking for coverage for redness or other skin discoloration, I love your freckles and I would hate to erase them. Here are some tips to enhance your look without hiding who you are!

• First, choose a light formula that will even out your skin tone without being cakey.  Many women with freckles find this step most difficult, but take the time to find a shade that matches your base skin tone and also allows your freckles to show through.
• Then, using a damp sponge, work the foundation into the sponge so you don't see any of it sitting on the surface. Start with places you need coverage most, like redness under your checks near your jaw-line, around your nose etc. Use the foundation only where needed and keep the rest of your skin as bare as possible.  It's best to choose formulas that are sheer to begin with like Neutrogena's Healthy Skin Glow Sheers. This provides enough coverage without hiding freckles.
• Next, use a concealer just to cover any blemishes and then choose a cream blush to bring out a bit of color over your cheeks, however, avoid pinks if you are a redhead.
• Next, play up your eyes by using brown eyeliner for definition and sheer eyeshadows. A dab of sheer lipstick or gloss is a great finishing touch.

Once your done, you will find you've created a fresh, beautiful and "totally-you" look.
