Rachel Brosnahan’s Makeup Artist Uses This SPF to Fix Redness

Some sunscreens protect, but leave you looking chalky, others feel greasy and the rest seem to worsen redness. That’s why Rachel Brosnahan’s sunscreen is worth grabbing, especially now that it’s 20% off at Dermstore. The EltaMD UV Skin Recovery Red Color Correcting Green Tint SPF 50 doesn’t just shield from UV rays — it helps neutralize redness so skin looks calm and even before the first dab of makeup.

For the Superman premiere, makeup artist Lisa Aharon started Rachel’s look with this very formula. “Color correcting before makeup just makes everything go on better,” she told Us. “If I can even out redness and get SPF in one step, I use way less makeup and the skin still looks super fresh. It’s all about starting with the right canvas and keeping it protected.” Tackling redness at the prep stage means you can ease up on heavy foundation while still getting that smooth, lit-from-within finish.

Shoppers say it’s just as effective off the red carpet. One fan wrote, “It totally canceled out any redness in my skin and acted as a base for my makeup, all while protecting my skin from harmful UV rays.” Another shared, “I react to many sunscreens… but this green-tinted EltaMD recovery sunscreen is very soothing and easy to rub in. I use it every day because it seems to decrease my redness from rosacea and doesn’t irritate my skin.”

The feel is a major win, too. As one reviewer raved, “From the first application, it felt more like a luxurious skincare product than a traditional sunscreen — no chalkiness or heaviness. The green tint blended seamlessly into my skin, instantly neutralizing the redness around my nose and cheeks without making my complexion look dull or gray.” 

Whether your redness comes from sensitivity, rosacea or just a little too much sun, this SPF tones things down before you even think about foundation. And with Dermstore’s 20% off deal, now’s the time to add it to your cart.
