Hi, i know exactly what you are going trough! i have the same problem, everytime i was asked a question at school, or had to give a speach ahhhh i was more aware about my face becoming red then the speach i was giving!
Unfortunatley there is no real cure! i mean im a guy so i never tried covering with make up and dont know any of its techniques, hehe, but its a very normal thing!
I mean i got to accepting the fact that when im nervous or shy i become red in the face, all i do when this happens is switch off the lights in the room and shine away! loool!
i know it is embarrasing but if youre shy, ur shy and your heart rate gets faster and blood is rushed up to your face! Accepting it helps because if your are more tense because you get red, than your heart will pump more blood to your face! If you ignore it it will slowley fade away!
I still get red in the face when im shy or embarresed, but hey its how my body works, i just accept it and when i calm down my face turns to its natural colour!
Dont get embarresed, its how our bodies work!
