Answer 1

i use max factor it's really good and comes in a range if shades for every skin tone,and it isn't that expensive other than that why not try a few and see what works best for you?

Answer 2

I also have spot prone skin and suffered quite bad until i started using a tea tree exfoliating face wash on the t-zone. I now have clear smooth skin but because my face is more pale than the rest of my body i use rimmel recover foundation, its lovely and smooth and has illuminater in which has a slightly glittery effect, it lasts all day and doesnt grease like others tend to.

Answer 3

No7 foundation, is fab. You buy it in light, medium or dark and it matches your skin tone. If feels really light and doesn't end up all over your clothes. Its gives a nice matt finish with a bit of a sheen. Its the best one I've tried and I've tried them all. Just make sure you cleanse tone and moisture twice a day with products suitable for your skin type to keep your skin clear. Tea tree based products would be good for your skin type. Have a look in Boots, avoid anything that will make your skin greasy.

Answer 4

I'm the same really I have been using loreal true match liquid foundation. I think this is really good as it looks like a small bottle but lasts a long time, by using it I have found that it covers up spots and DOESN'T produce anymore.

Answer 5

Max factor. But it's important to use concealer on spots aswell, becauses it's not the job of foundation to cover up spots...foundation is supposed to make your skin one tone. You can use a cheap cover-up stick but it's important to have good foundation. Blend them together.

Answer 6

I use Maybelline Superstay Silky Foundation. It is so good for coverage and lasts for 16 hours. It has SPF12 which protects even sensitive skin as i also have sensitive skin. Go to Boots and use the testers and see which shade is right for you. Good luck!

I use BOBBI BROWN creamy concealer/correction to cover any spots, it has 3 colours in the pod, bisque/natural and pale yellow. Then I use Boots no.7Soft & Sheer Tinted Moisturiser for Fair skin. It is hypo-allergenic and has SP15 in it. It works for me give it a try lol

Go to the different make-up counters in Boots and explain what you wnt then ask for some samples so that you don't have to make costly mistakes! Most of the cosmetic franchises are happy to give samples out. Also, find someone who sells Avon products as they can get you loads of samples in several different colours.

Answer 10

max factor is good and since you have a spot prone skin I would advise you to get a concealer and make sure you thoroughly wash off your make up every night.
