Cover Up Brand
Hey guysss, I'm curious as to what you guys think is the best kind of cover-up. I don't really have acne, but I'll get random pimples and need a nice type of cover up that will make my face seem less red and well pimpley. Let me know what you guys think.
Thanks!!

Stick coverup, applied with a concealer brush, will work best for you.
Start with a face primer to help your makeup stay on and look more natural. I love the Bare Escentuals primer, but there are also less expensive drugstore options.
Next, apply a mineral powder foundation. Unlike regular foundations and are easy to apply. If you have bad skin or a lot of redness you'd like to cover up (or even just okay skin but you want coverage), Maybelline Mineral Power powder foundation is amazing. If you just want very sheer coverage and get a glow, Neutrogena Mineral Sheers is great. (The kind that comes in the brush).
Now it's time for concealer. If you have decent sized specific areas you want to cover (i.e. chin or around nose), a regular sized concealer brush is great. Like this one:

If you just have one or two pimples you want to cover up, precision brushes are amazing. They cover just the problem without getting concealer everywhere else. I love this one:

There are a lot of different methods you can use, like stippling, light strokes, etc. Practice makes perfect and you will learn what technique works on your face best.
I use a stick concealer like this:

And just dip my brush in it.
The most important step is to set it with powder, otherwise it will come right off during the day. Translucent powder will look the most natural. L'oreal's Bare Naturale powder is the best:

It makes your skin glow and keeps your makeup in place all day.
However, it is around $13. If you're not willing to spend that much, most drugstore brands make translucent powder.
