Cover-up Tips That Will Make Your Acne Quit



Acne is a spiteful little thing and is always ready to one-up you when you take retaliation. Being a suffer of acne's wrath, I put my researching skills into overdrive and came up with a face routine that has helped my acne and acne scars become the least of my worries these past three months.

Morning:
Checks and Balances Frothy Face Wash $21

"When it comes to faces with dry and oily places, it takes a clever cleanser to balance the two. This gentle, frothy face wash carefully does both jobs without canceling each other out."

My Recommendation - use a tiny pencil eraser size amount and gently swirl it around you face for about 20 seconds.

CeraVe Facial Moisturizing Lotion AM $10.89

"CeraVe® Facial Moisturizing Lotion Am helps repair damaged skin and maintain the skin's natural protective function with ingredients not commonly found in other moisturizers. Its patented Multivesicular Emulsion (MVE®) technology releases theses ingredients over time, penetrating deep into the skin to hydrate and nourish."

My Recommendation - I use two pumps to gently cover my entire face and neck. I love the fact that it has SPF.

Pur Minerals Correcting Primer, Peach - Color Balancer $31

"Vegan friendly, Paraben-free, and Gluten-free. Neutralize the look of dark circles, age spots, freckles and uneven skin tone with color-perfecting ingredients. Plus, brighten and firm the skin's appearance while smoothing away the look of lines with clinically proven skin care technology."

My Recommendation - After applying a thin layer, give it some time to dry and be absorbed. This is the time I usually do my hair while I wait. This color works well for most skins. I usually use this primer for special occasions or when I know I'll be taking a lot of pictures.

OR TRY:

Primed & Poreless Pressed Powder $30

"With just one brushstroke, pores disappear and skin glows with a stunning, soft-focus effect that can stand up to the harshest lighting. Wear our innovative, tried-and-true matte powder under foundation to prime skin, on top of makeup as a setting powder, or alone for a nearly-natural finish."

My Recommendation - This is my everyday primer. I just brush it all over my face and make sure to really get my problem areas so when I put my powder foundation, the coverage will really stick throughout the day.

Pur Minerals 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Foundation $27.00

"Our newly enhanced formula has everything you love about the original 4-in-1 and more - same great coverage, same lightweight feel, same no-mess mineral makeup, but now with new built-in skincare ingredients, clinical results and sophisticated packaging.
With this one compact, our newly enhanced formula has been clinically proven to:
Correct, prevent and interrupt your skin concerns
Smooth away the look of lines and wrinkles
Plump, lift and firm the skin's appearance
Balance uneven skin tone."

My Recommendation - I usually go over my cheeks twice as those are my problem areas. This powder is great because it can offer full coverage with more layers and doesn't give you that unattractive cakey look. The color matching is spot-on. With other brands, at the end of the day my makeup ends up looking so pink but with Pur, the color is perfect all day long. I also recommend getting the Chisel Brush as it really puts the makeup on your face so well and I end up not using that much of the product so it lasts longer.

Smooth Operator™ Finishing Powder $34

"This convenient compact and included brush applicator deliver tarte’s best-selling smooth operator™ Amazonian clay finishing powder in a pressed format for an effortless application that never looks heavy or chalky. Set your makeup in place all day with this easy-to-apply formula infused with Amazonian clay to help mattify skin, minimize the appearance of pores and reduce excess oil, for a soft focus finish even when you’re on-the-go."

My Recommendation - Keep this in your purse! I absolutely go crazy when I don't have this on hand. It keeps my face looking porefect after putting my makeup on. Throughout the day, I still get a bit oily but once I brush some of this baby on - my skin is back to looking refreshed and lively! I love this, I love this, I love this!

Since using these products, my face has been beautifully recovering from acne. Try some of these products and let me know your results or if you have any juicy makeup secrets you'd like to spill, do it below in the comment area :)
