I have oily skin and pimple problems what kind of foundation do i use? Loreal,covergirl,revlon,etc?

Question

there are so many to choose from I dont know where to start

Answer 1

Creme to powder foundation by Mary Kay or their medium coverage foundation. Neither will break you out and have good coverage. I have oily skin and prefer the medium coverage foundation because if I use powder over it, I am oil-free all day.

I also use the Mary Kay Oil Control Lotion 3 as a moisterizer in the morning to help with oil. Then, if I do get oily (like in the summer, or on a very humid day) I use the MK oil mattifier. It goes on over make-up and dries to a powdery finish.

Make sure you are using a good skincare routine to prevent excess oil production and breakouts. Email me for tips.

Answer 2

Look for foundation that is either non-comedogenic or non-acnegenic and oil-free. Neutrogena claims to be a forerunner in this field, but I find their shades or pigments to not match very well. Dermablend is a good cover creme foundation, but you may have to buy a couple and mix them to find your exact skin shade. But really you should ask your dermatologist or see a dermatologist if you have not already. Sometimes makeup can make your problems worse even if it does read non-comedogenic or oil-free. The dermatologist can prescribe you a medication that can help you to become pimple free and fade the scars they leave behind. Then you won't have to wear make up at all. Good luck.

Answer 3

Take it from someone who knows...Bare Escentauls Foundation and Mineral Veil. And the thing that has helped the MOST is using the Bare Escentuals Skin Rev-er Upper under my make-up and before bedtime. It is worth the money. And sometimes you can find some good deals on Ebay. Good luck!

Answer 4

I have the same problems you do and I like Estee Lauder Double Wear or L'Oreal Infallible. Also for touch ups during the day when you're feeling a little greasy, MAC blot powder is fantastic!

Answer 5

I've had this problem for years. Neutrogena makes one of the best around, and reasonably priced. Try their Skin-
Clearing Oil-Free Makeup. (see link below)

You should be able to buy them just about anywhere (drugstores, grocerystores, Ulta, etc.) The key is "oil free" on the label. Good luck!
