Red bumps on my face== makeup?
What makeup usually covers the red bumps? I know it's acne. But it's just RED, no i don't pick or pop at them. I use moisturizer and wait a few minutes because if i do it 10-15 mins later, my makeup cracks. like my face is dry or i used too much makeup o.o My skin is combination though. I dont know what to do use. I tried using concealer, foundation, powder but the red just shows right through and i look weird with lots of makeup on. I see other girls that cover them up nicely. I don't know how to do it.

I use a cover-up stick by 'Flirt' (you can buy it at Kohls for $10 for the smaller tube), it doesn't dry out your skin or leave it oily. You can try it on at Kohls with a cotton ball to see what shade suites your face right, but the makeup blends really well and hides any blemishes perfectly. :] I hope it works for you!

i use concealer to cover my blemishes and it usually works. i dont use a lot of moisturizer either cause i have combo skin, so ill use it where my skin is feelin a little dry, and here and there. Use the concealer, let it sit for a few minutes while you do your hair or something, then go back with a little foundation and/or powder. Nobody knows you have acne...just a few random break outs which is compeltely normal

I have always been told that teens should not use a moisturizer, and if they do only where it is neccessary. Using moisturizer makes your face more oily. I would only use moisturizer where you have very dry skin. This will help keep the zits and pimples down so you won't have to cover them up!

i just went to the dermatologist... and ashe said im not aloud to use a mouserizer anymmore b/c my face is producing enough oil anyway, so you may wanna stop the moisterizer. and make sure your makeup is oil free. i thought mine was but it wasnt. and use a good face wash... you do this and the redness will go away in a few days/weeks and as 4 right now maybaline is good clinique is good. and dont cover urself in make up itll make it worse. and its summer so try only wearing makeup when you go out

Don't use make up. It will make it worse! You have acne because your pores are clogged, and makeup is an excellent pore-clogger. Put down the cosmetics RIGHT NOW. Start washing your face daily with hot water and regular soap, if that doesn't work get Phisoderm or Clearasil. If you still have problems, see a doctor. There are prescription creams that help really well. Makeup will do a lot of damage, you want your face to be healthy as well as beautiful. Later, when you have the acne under control, you can still wear makeup. But don't keep it on for a long time, and beware that it may cause breakouts (which can be controlled). Good luck.

EDIT, in response to your feedback: So you go to a DOCTOR. It can be cured with medicine. Yes, makeup does make it worse--that's a fact of life. And even if didn't, covering it up still isn't going to benefit you.

I have this problem as well. However, i have found some stuff that seems to work miracles for mine. It's by Maybelline, it's called dream matte mousse. They have all different skin tones. It can be used as foundation, but i use it over my foundation and only on my blimishes. Just use your finger and kind of dab it over the acne.[someone the other day complimented me on how 'clear' my skin was, i was in shock. cause honestly, it's not clear at all]. This really works for me. Hope it helped

ok you can go to the store and find these sticks they kinda look like lipstick except the stuff is green its made to conceal red spots BUT dont overuse it because it had oil in it and will make you brake out(i learned that one the hard way)
