NO!!! Do NOT use foundation to cover zits. Use concealer. You can get it at any pharmacy for probably about 5-6 bucks. Everyone uses different make-up so use whatever kind you like. Try a couple different kinds until you find one that's right for you. I am prone to break outs so I use Physicians Formula (I buy it at CVS) because it's gentle and it doesn't cause breakouts. Give it a try if you have problem/sensitive skin. Oh, and the green concealer is to cover red spots or pimples, the yellow concealer helps dark under eye circles, and the skin colored is for any other problem areas. I know it can be confusing but once you start playing around with different products you'll get the hang of it!!! Good luck!!

Here are two suggestions. One, if your skin is oily, wash it morning and at 3 PM and if needed at bed time. Why at 3? Because the skin starts producing the most oil at 1PM, Oil, or sebum as it's referred to, is extremely irritating, so you won't heal if the oil remains on till bed time. Also take ONLY 50 milligrams of zinc per day as acneic skin is zinc deficient. Use an almond scrub to take away all the dead cells that mix with your oil and clog your pores. My second suggestion is, if you are not oily and breakout all over, stop all dairy, as it commonly causes very bad acne. This includes milk, ice cream, cream, yogurt , cheese....... Then use a nice mineral makeup. If it is loose powder it usually means that it has no fillers and binders which can harbor bacteria. A cleaner makeup means less bacteria on your skin. If you use liquid makeup, NEVER apply with your fingers. Do you know where they have been!!! Use a clean sponge and don't dip it back in the bottle, use a new one each time.

easily..this has constantly labored for me..do attempt it:- Use a warm compress on it (a washcloth, sponge, or something which will enable you to coach moist warmth to the area), and then use cool water to close the pores. Do the technique back and back back, approximately 5 or six situations. Use cleansing soap to bathe the area, rinse it with heat water, blot off the surplus water with a sparkling towel, and then manage it with an alcohol soaked cotton ball. it is going to be long previous interior of five to 6 hours. this might help drain the pimple out and not leave scar

Use concealer to cover blemishes -- Neutrogena has a "Skin Clearing" medicated concealer that works well, and is not expensive.
If you must wear foundation, get a good oil-free formula. Lorac makes a good one, as does Lancome, Origins and Clinique.

Hi,
Try to find a concealer with a green colour base in it. The green counteracts the red and hides the blemishes better. I use a Dior concealer which is pricey but give fantastic coverage. You can but them cheaper on line at strawberry net and they deliver to your door. And any products with zinc and clay in them should help your skin.
Good luck

i think you should use a something called "bare minerals". i think it will help you cover all your imperfections. i use it and its lightweight too. i think the cost is about $60 dollars, its a bit pricey though.
