Avoid spicy food: If you are fond of spicy foods and are struggling with this problem, the food could be the culprit. Consider cutting down on the spicy foods.
Cut down on alcohol and cigarettes: alcohol takes away moisture, making the skin dehydrated and increasingly vulnerable to pore clogging. Excessive amounts of alcohol in the body also leave your blood vessels more susceptible to rupturing. When capillaries rupture, the blood coming from them go to the skin surface and can make the nose appear reddened. Cigarettes also dehydrate the skin in addition to exposing your body to more toxins. Avoiding alcohol and cigarettes (although not the easiest of options for most people) can help reduce redness around nose.
Use a gentle face wash: You should also consider using a mild face wash that is formulated for sensitive skin twice a day, one time before sleep. Simply apply the face wash on the face and massage gently before rinsing it off with lukewarm water. Finally pat a towel gently (don’t rub it across) on your face to dry the face.
Apply a water based (oil-free) moisturizing lotion or cream that has chamomile or any other botanical ingredient to soothe the skin. Apply it on the whole face and take some time to apply some more on the on the reddened area around the nose. Apply gently however to avoid peeling off the skin.
Use a caffeinated serum: Once the moisturizing lotion has dried up, you may want to apply a serum containing caffeine on your nose. You can get one in your local drugstore. Simply rub some serum and rub it gently on your nose.
Puff some green-tinted powder: once you have allowed the caffeinated serum some minutes to dry, use a powder puff or makeup brush to apply some green-tinted powder on the nose. According to the Cosmopolitan magazine, this can help to reduce the skin redness giving you a more evened-out look. You should however blend the powder properly to avoid having a greenish hue on the nose.
Apply some concealer: this doesn’t really get rid of the redness around the nose but rather camouflages the skin discoloration. The best concealer to use is one that matches your skin tone.

Just so you know, I copy oasted this from some website so I haven't tried it myself because I don't have the problem. Hope I helped though :)

Green concealer has never worked for me. I'd suggest the cc cream though.

I have redness all over my face, I'm basically a tomato, I wash my face with cold water, use cooling and soothing products, and use first aid beauty anti redness serum. These all help some so if you don't have severe redness I can see these really helping. I don't have rosacea but I'm really fair and I get hot easily which leads to me getting really flushed.
