I use to have bad acne, but since i stopped drinking soda, and only drink H20, it cleared up, but i still have the scars from my previous breakouts. I need something that is like medium coverage...and that doesn't need to be applied that often.

try clinique if you have the money. they are at department stores usually. I have that t-zone thing going and there is something with them for the oil control. just make sure you don't over dry and use a moisturizer for oily skin. this way you don't over dry and your skin doesn't feel the need to over compensate with extra oil. ask the sales rep. the compact I used was like a concealer, but turned into powder when it went on, it was great.

A powder makeup like Bare Minerals/Bare Escentuals can work magic. You can get the powder in a perfect match to your skin tone. All you do is buff the powder with a brush all over your face and it will even skin tone, cover marks, and reduce redness. You can apply it a little more heavily for medium coverage and the makeup makes your skin look flawless. What else that is great about this product is that it absorbs oil!! You can try this powder out before you buy it at Sephora.

Bare Escentuals i.d. Bare Minerals Foundation with SPF 15 is the best because it covers everything and is made from pure minerals, so it doesn't cause breakouts! It is also very natural-looking and feels great on skin.
You also might like to try the Multi-Tasking Minerals concealer by Bare Escentuals, it's my lifeline! :~)

Use a mineral make-up and never makep-up that contains oil. Use a primer and a lighter concealer for scarring and coverage then apply foundation and powder to set.

Anything that is a matte finish. Wonderfinish or Dream Matte Mouse by Maybelline are two to try. Also, try the Cornsilk powder from Sally Hansen.

yeah, i used to have bad acne too.. and now i have little scars..
i have clinique coverup for 20$
i guess it works kinda good..
but it dint really match my skin color perfect enough so i had to use my fingers to blend it in
and it dint work that well..
oh and when u have the coverup on, ur face develops visible oil after a couple hours.. so just dot it dry with a tissue or something..

well i think you should clean your face with alcohol you didnt really need to cut it out all the way yeah maybe cut down but not completly gone and after you clean your face with alcohol you should use powder foundation it is not that expensive it is only like $5 and it will also keep acne away as long as you clean your face with alcohol and use powder you could go back to drinking soda hope i help if not sorry

Well for your oily skin, i would use cover-up, but the POWDER not the cream, and then only aply that once, then use bloting pads when your oily skin gets bad durring the day. it works for me!

the best thing is you wash your wash how many time you can.
and pl do not put any makeup on ur face and drink as much as water you can and try to wipe ur wash through dry cloth many time and keep it away from dust.
i am also facing the same problem!
