Complexion!


Question Posted Tuesday April 29 2008, 4:36 pm

I've had pretty good skin up until this year, a little more acne and my skin's splotchier. I'm SUPER fair, also. I need help figuring out what products to get.

Acne isle- What face washes/cleansers should I get to clear up my acne and would make my complexion better?

Cosmetics- What foundation (I like powder foundations) could I get that would hide my imperfections without making me look like a porcelain doll? I used to use this product-[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
and it did the perfect job but it's a little too expensive.

Thanks!

Try L'oreal Bare Naturale makeup. There's concealer, foundation, glow, blush, and finishing veil, but obviously you don't have to do all that.
The concealer is absolutely amazing. I'd recommend that with either the foundation or finishing powder (finisher if you feel like your skin is oily). Evens your skin out and makes it look amazing.

I had the same problem: super fair skin and blotchiness. One really good cream without a doctors note is Zap a Zit which you can get at walmart or any docter store. Then there is dove which in fact works amazingly for fair skin in case you have dry skin and oily which is normal for fair skin.

But i recomend going to your doctor and get a note for Benzeclin. Its absolutly amazing and cleared my skin up in two weeks with not one ounce of reddness or dry skin. It's like a miracle cream.

But a really good powder foundation is maybelien cover up, its called Mineral Power and you can get in light or translucent. Amazing stuff and it stays on for hours. I use it when a mysterious pimple pops out of no where and it's red. Its really nice:)

Hope i helped

first off it's always best to go to a dermatologist to see which products complement your specific skin type on all product levels.
it's good to wash, not scrub, your face gently w/soap cleanser at least once a day. good ones are aveeno or cetaphil. acne toners are good to apply before you go to bed(put lotion over it though b/c your skin may get dry), or in the morning before you apply your makeup and sunblock. ooh yeah you have to wear sunscreen everyday, just in case you don't it's really important! good toners should have sacylic acid(something like that). neutrogena is a good one.
as for foundations, unfortunately you're going to have to run some trial and error experiments on that to see which ones don't make you break out. it really depends on your skin complexion, whether it's more oily or dry. also if your acne gets real bad i know some people who took acutane(you need prescription) and it really makes a difference. but that's for severe cases. best of luck w/the fight against raging hormones!
