When my makeup wears off, the skin tone on my nose and cheeks looks patchy.

My skin tone looks fairly even right after applying makeup, but I am writing to inquire because the areas around my nose and cheeks look patchy by the afternoon. Sebum and redness appear next to my nose, while my cheeks feel dry and flaky, revealing my naturally dull skin tone.

When I touch up, the difference between my light and dark areas gets worse, and the more foundation I apply, the thicker my skin looks, so doing my makeup has become stressful lately.

Thinking it was simply a matter of incompatibility with my cosmetics, I tried changing my base products several times, but the problem of uneven skin tone remained the same. The attached photo was taken by me after washing my face to show the skin tone around the sides of my nose and cheeks.

In this case, I am wondering if I need to receive a pigment laser treatment or if I should also manage the redness and skin texture. Rather than covering it up with makeup, I want to manage my skin so that my bare skin tone looks a little more even.
