Sensitive Skin Make Up Suggestions?

So I have a bit of an issue.  If I become the LEAST BIT nervous, excited, heated, ANYTHING I become covered in red blotches everywhere....my chest, arms, face, EVERYWHERE!  Does anyone have any suggestions for makeup that will either tone it down or cover it up as much as possible?  I'm desperate.  I don't wear a lot of makeup as it is so I don't even know where to start and I certainly don't want this in my pictures.  Thanks in advance ladies!

    I also have very sensitive skin, and I use Philosophy skin care products and I'll be using their makeup line for the big day (I wear makeup like maybe once a week). 

    Are you having a MUA?  I'd definitely do a trial run WELL in advance of the wedding and do a test drive of concealers and foundations to make sure you don't blotch through.  Try to have the trial done earlier in the day so you can see how long it can last.  HTH.

    you dont mention if your skin is sensitive to makeup, mine is and i get splotches like you, one tip, when trying on gowns in the hot bridal salon I noticed that ivory fabrics seemed to tone down the redness a bit, while brighter whites made it look more noticable. Also my skin is so sensitive I get rashes or break out at so many things, mineral makeup and powder foundations especially are very bad for me, cover girl clean make up works the best I have no reaction and its very low cost, the oil control formula seems to last the longest but they also have a sensitive skin formula, if your more sensitive than I am, tho that would be tough lol
