Hello:

First off I would suggest using spot concealer instead of foundation. Makeup is usually oil based, so it is not uncommon that it would cause you to break out. Spot concealer would cover up any problem areas but is not applied to other areas of your face. It just blends in with your skin tone.

Or using powder instead of foundation. Powder is lighter, and does not clog pores as often as foundation will.

I would also suggest using a foundation that also fights acne. I know that there is usually one line of this type of foundation from each brand, check out a Target or a Walmart.

I hope this helps, and good luck.

Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.

In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.

Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.

In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.

If you would like to learn how to treat your acne permanently and regain your health and wellbeing, without drugs, without typical acne treatments, and without any side effects, then this will be the most important letter you will ever read.

Mary Kay is the only thing I have ever used that did not cause my face to break out. You can also get the face wash and all that to go with it and it help prevent breakouts. There are many diffent formuals of foundation and consealers for you to choice from. You can look at all the products at MaryKay.com and if you like what you see you can find a consultant on that website. Good luck!

Physicians Formula works well. It is made for people with breakout prone skin. Also, no matter what foundation you use, wash your face every morning and every night, and never sleep with your makeup on. That should help keep your skin clear as well.

I have found the best foundation --- it's not a cream but a mineral powder. It's called Bare Escentuals. I first found it on QVC but have also found it on the Sephora website (they have free shipping available). I love it - it's very light and covers imperfections!!!! It's goes on with a big fluffy brush and it's absolutely flawless!!! The eye shadows are gorgeous too. I buy several different eyeshadows but have found you can "custom blend" your own depending on your mood :-)

Use a tinted moisturizer or one that is for oily skin/acne like neutrogena.
