I have LOTS of freckles, and I don't want to cover them up, most people say they're cute, but my skin is far from perfect and I get breakouts sometimes, and I need something to conceal zits with. Most concealers don't work that well, they either cover up my zits AND my freckles, and it looks like I have random splotches of freckle-free areas on my face. Or, the concealer is too sheer to do anything at all. What should I do?

use a q-tip and apply directly to the blemish.

Dab the concealer on the zit, and blend it only at the edges. I like Erase by Max Factor.
Figure out the actual color of the freckles - golden, rosy, or dark charcoal brown. Golden freckles means you are a WARM, and rosy or charcoal means you are a COOL.
COOL colors:
white, pinks, cherry red, coral, lemon, mint, jade, forest, sky, royal, navy, lavender, plum, gray, black, and silver jewelry.
WARM colors:
ivory, tomato red, peach, orange, rust, golden yellow, lime, kelly, olive, aqua, turquoise, teal, purple, caramel, coffee brown, and gold jewelry.
Coose colors form your group for shadows, liners/mascaras, blush, and lip colors.
Let all those freckles show! Guys love them.
Be sure you wash off all the makeup every night before sleeping. Sunscreen in AM, and moisturize in PM. Make sure formulas are for your skin type - oily, normal, dry, combination, and sensitive skin.
Make sure all makeup is non-comedogenic [ says on package. ]
Exfoliate with Aapri or St Ives apricot scrub, 3 times a week - initially skin will be a bit worse, then all the new unclogged layers will show.
Use a dab of acne gel or cream on any spots.

Iould say till you have zits or redness, don't be concerned with face makeup! I you do have them i might purely say to apply concealer on the spots and sheer powder to set your total face. in case you opt for for finished face makeup, purely get a tinted moisturizer, or powder commencing place, so your freckles instruct with the aid of.
