It makes me feel like S**t


Question Posted Monday April 2 2012, 8:05 am

alright so... i don't have the best skin. it's oily as hell. and the pimple... i'm not worried about that it's the blackheads. the makeup i use doesn't cover them nor the bumps they have NOR the holes they leave when i pull them out. and i'm not sure what to try now. i mean i'm cheap so i use drugstore, walmart type store makeup like maybelliene and covergirl... but i've been looking at MUFE, MAC, Smashbox, and other stuff...
but before i buy them i want to be sure they'll work because they are so expensive. so if you know any makeup good for covering blackheads or can find out some.. or even can find me a good article on this or a internet makeup tutorial please tell me.
and don't give me a lecture on how makeup won't help it, i'm not a retard i know that. but i would appreciate the help, not a LECTURE.

I wouldn't recommend MAC, their foundation tends to clog pores and it would probably make your problem worse. MUFE Mat Velvet+ really changed my life (as much as makeup can, anyway haha). It does a great job of controlling oily skin and gives awesome coverage. Definitely worth a try (and Sephora will let you return it if you don't like it).

I know of the perfect foundation for you! It's called Palladio Dual Wet & Dry Foundation. It's only about 8 bucks too. It helps a lot because it's wet and dry, and it doesn't make your skin look oily. It also doesn't make you break out anymore. It covers everything, and you don't need to put too much on. What I normally do is put that on, and then a little bit of bronzer POWDER to give it some pizzazz. As for the oilyness, just to give you a tip on that, buy a face scrub and use some face soap and gently rub all over your face with warm water, it should help quite a bit. Good Luck, hope I helped!

High end brands such as MAC and Smashbox for example are of better quality usually. However, make up works differently for everyone. Just because someone loves MAC and it works best for them doesn't mean it'll work best for you. Maybe Cover Girl works best for you. Everyone's skin type is different and not everyone gets break outs from the same products. With that being said, if you are looking into a new make up brand then I would suggest getting samples first. Go into MAC and tell them you are interested in trying their products for covering blackheads but you want to make sure it works with your skin before you buy something. That way you won't be wasting your money.

That's a good website to show you how to cover them. Also, you should try those blackhead remover strips. You can find them at CVS or Wal-Mart. However, if you really want to see an improvement then you should go to a dermatologist.
