Answer 2

Mineral makeup may offer new hope for acne sufferers. Because mineral makeup has several unique qualities not offered in any other makeup product that make it ideal for helping cure acne.

To understand how mineral makeup can cure your acne it is necissary to look at the seven causes of acne:

1. Genetics. Sadly, nothing can change your genetics. If your parents had acne as teenagers there is a good chance that you will too.

2. Hormones. During adolesence, hormones called androgens become active and stimulate oil glands in your skin, increasing oil production. This, in turn, clogs pores, causing pimples and blackheads.

3. Stress. Although stress doesn't actually cause acne, it can add to the problem by affecting hormones.

4. Diet. Many times what you eat has been shown to cause acne. Most of the time acne is an adverse reaction your body has to a food allergy.

5. Washing your face too often. This can irritate the skin making acne worse.

6. Medications. Many medications can cause acne or make an existing condition worse. Read labels or talk to your paharmacist to find out if acne is a side effect.

7. Using greasy skin care products and oily cosmetics. Most makeup falls into this category.

While these are the casuse of acne it is important to remember that acne is ultimately a result of bacteria growing in clogged pores. Bacteria is organic and thus cannot grow or multiply without the presence of water. This is where mineral makeup plays an almost magical role in curing acne.

Mineral makeup is made of natural minerals derived from the earth, these minerals are not only inorganic but they are also extremely resistant to water. They actually act as a shield on your face keeping bacteria feeding moisture away from your pores. Mineral makeup is not soluable in water so even if you put water directly on your face the minerals will not be absorbed and the water cannot pass through.

Mineral makeup does not clog pores either. Because it is so finely milled during production, the granules are much smaller than your pores. This not only prevents acne from forming, but makes the makeup extremely easy to blend into the skin with a very flawless look and conceals problem areas very well. If you suffer from a break out the finely milled minerals are very effective as disguising it.

Because of these and other unique qualities mineral makeup is known througout the world as the skin care makeup and recommended to acne sufferers by dermatologists. Ultimately, it does not matter what the cause of your acne is, without water to feed the bacteria, and something to clog the pores and hold that moisture in acne cannot form or worsen. If you suffer from acne, mineral makeup may end up being your best friend.

Answer 3

yes it could be because of the makeup. The makeup could be clogging your poors and causing the acne to get worse. I suggest taking a break off the makeup for a while and pop all the zits and clean them with proxy or some other acne pad from walmart (do not use proactive) then get some of this stuff from smash box (a makeup center at nordstroms) it keeps the makeup out of your poors and after the acne clear start wearing makeup again (but not till its all clear) if your acne is really bad right now use the acne pads everyday once the acne's gone to clean your face at night before going to bed so that your makeup doesn't get caked on cause even with the poor blocking stuff from smashbox your poors still need to breath

Answer 4

It certainly could be. Try not wearing any makeup for a while and see if it helps. If you cant go without makeup, then switch products. MAC studiofix made me break out like crazy and I'm 28! Things that helped my acne were washing my face with Panoxyl soap, using clearisil pads, applying Benzaclin ( prescription ) at night and taking the birth control pill, Apri.

Answer 5

It's likely the type of makeup. Some people's skin is sensitive to certain ingredients, i.e. mineral oil. If you want to keep wearing makeup without getting acne, you have to find out what ingredient in the makeup is causing the acne, and then buy new makeup without that ingredient.

Answer 6

no definite answer for this.
if you're using comedogenic make up AND not removing them thoroughly then there would be no reason why your acne wouldnt get worse.
but if you're using non-comedogenic make up and you always make sure you clean off every single trace of make up at the end of the day and yet your acne gets worse then perhaps it's due to other factors like stress or diet. do you always have an acne problem before you started using make up?

Answer 7

some people say that, but it msde absolutely no difference to my skin when i stopped wearing make up 4 a few months. i think some makeup clogs your pores a bit, and using dirty sponges etc might spread bacteria, but if you already have acne, and you use non-cosmonogenic make up and only clean brushes and sponges, makeup wont make a massive difference

the only way i know how 2 get rid of acne is to go on oral anti biotics, its working 4 me, yay! go 2 ur doctor and get some, it takes a few months 2 c results, but its worked 4 me and a few of my friends.

Answer 8

Some makeup is "comedogenic," which means it clogs your pores and can cause acne. If you use makeup, always make sure it says "non-comedogenic" on the package. There is also makeup for oily, acne-prone skin, and that would be a good choice, too.

Answer 9

If you put on consealer with a sponge it will give you really bad acne. I recommend putting it on with a make up brush. If you don't see any results with that, all I use is compressed powder and it works great!

Answer 10

your makeup is probably oily. i got acne because of make up .. & it took about 4 months to clear ! you should use proactiv ; it's only 20 bux & it is a deal trust me it does clear your skin.

Answer 11

u have to make sure that ur makeup is appropriate for skin with acne
