hi there! as a makeup artist & and someone who has sufferd from acne for 14yrs i would advise you to buy a foundation called bourjois matte lovely. it is a wonderful foundation and after spending years looking for one myself this is the best i have come up with. both for myself & my clients.
i would also advise you to visit your doctors and seek his/hers advise. if this is something you have already done i would recomend using lancome. i would have never recomended it before because of the price but i have started to use it myself and its fab! believe me i have tried everything, clearasil, all medication from doctors, superdrug makes ect.... and none of them have ever helped. i hope that this has helped as i no how upsetting it can be. if you need anymore advice you can contact me by visiting my website and using the contact number

Double wear foundation...it lasts ages and gives really good coverage.

For the ache, theres a solution from the doctors I used to get. I can't remember the name but will have a look when I get home...Its tropical something or other!

Also are you on the pill, I went onto cilest when my skin was really bad....it really helped!xxx

Either tigi bedhead oil free foundation or matis perfect fluid radiant foundation. With matis u may have to use two layers for more coverage,they are a french professional company with awesome skincare too.

hi ya, im not to sure about a foundation for acne, but to be honest if you treat your face of a night or before you apply foundation then you just need a foundation for oily skin. i have oily skin and im prone to spots, i am using chanel double perfection at the moment and it is great!! x

Try Pro Active Solution products to help clear the acne. Foundation for oily skin, wash & then use toner for oily skin. Moisturiser- which is suitable for oily skin Garnier is good & cheap! Then use a mattifier (Body Shop) allow these to set a few minutes. Then put on your foundation. Prescriptives custom blend is good as they will tailor it to yr skin needs and the amount of coverage you require. They do make custom blend concealers too for that added coverage. To counteract redness of the acne, use a green colour corrector (MAC, Body Shop) before applying foundation. Good luck!

Hiyah!,
I had Acne a few years back and found it really hard to find oil free foundation,they are a lot more out there now,i still use oil free as i dont like the shiny look.
Try:_Revlon diffusing tints,Maybelline Everfresh make up,and also Decoderm max skincare make up?.
they are all really good!.

u can actually get medicated foundations that will help your prob. have you had much help on how to cover your spots and what to do before you put your foundation on?

I mean what brand?
I swear I've never heard/seen such a thing.
