How can I reduce red marks left in my face after a facial cleansing?

I had a facial today and it has left my face with lost of red areas, like marks, not uniform.





I'd appreciate any tips with at-home remedies. Brand products will be gladly taken into consideration as well. I'd just like to tone them down before I go back to work on Tuesday.How can I reduce red marks left in my face after a facial cleansing?
A nice oatmeal mask should soothe that for you...





1/2 cup powdered oats


2 tablespoons honey


1 squished gel-cap of vitamin E or about 10 vitamin E drops


1 teaspoon sunflower oil, or any other liquid oil such as olive oil


optional:


1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract





Mix the ingredients in a dish. Add enough water to make a paste. Warm your skin and open pores with warm compresses. Apply to skin and leave on for 10 minutes or more. Rinse. Rub a tiny bit of liquid vegetable oil on normally dry areas.How can I reduce red marks left in my face after a facial cleansing?
Visine will temporarily reduce redness, and a green-based concealer (under foundation of course) will also help hide them.
Did your Esthetician do some extractions? If so this is why you have red marks. They should go away within a day or so. If they don't go away, you can cover them up with a GOOD mineral make-up (bare minerals or jane iredale). Plus, a mineral make-up will keep your skin healthy and won't add to break outs.
