Hi! Please let me know what concealers and/or foundations work best for you to cover up red blotches and that do not look cake-y on the face. Thanks for any responses!!! Cassie :wave:

I've still gotta go with mineral makeup! LOL! It's the best thing I've ever tried. There are several threads about it here. My favorites are Aromaleigh & Geografx, but there are a lot of others, too. They are all different, so they apply differently, look different on your skin, & have different staying powers. So you really just have to sample them to find the one that works best for you.

I have coverup issues every day b/c of broken blood vessels, freckles, and scarring. I use Bareminerals makeup that I dab on the bad spots then go over the whole face. Nothing else has ever covered and looked so natural, plus given me additional spf.

I use Bareaminerals too, but for concealor, I like the Model's Prefer. I get it at QVC. You get three different shades that you can custom mix. I have hereditary dark circles under my eyes and this is my favorite, although I also like Dr. Denese's concealer that comes in a pen.

I thought about trying Models Prefer. So, it's good huh?
I wanted to get her lip glosses yesterday but they all sold out!!

I have never heard or seen baremineral products before..... Where do you purchase them? Thanks Cassie

I like Physician's Formula. Lightweight, not cakey, and doesn't break me out like every other product I've used. :)

Hey Soar,
I get the Bare Escentuals products at QVC. You can go to their website and check them out if you want.

I use max factor color adapt, at first I wasnt believing it at all,
It doesnt make your face look all one collor like the others I have tried in the past. It only is a good cover up if you use a powder with it though,
Its also not to oily. x

I use that too and I hate it. It's waaaaaaaaaaay too sheer. I have blotchy skin that's pale so all the broken vessels and little red marks and blackheads show. The color adapt looks like my skintone anyway, but it matches my mother's too. The texture sucks. It's either too dry or too greasy if I put stuff underneath. It sits there for a minute before it sinks in. Over my blue under-eye circles, it makes them look worse somehow. I think it makes my skin look even paler and makes me more zombie-like. It also sticks to the fine hairs of the face, any blackheads that stick up a little, and these tiny little fine bumps on my face I have everywhere. I absolutely hate it and I'm only using it because I'm trying not to waste money on a new foundation that I hate again. Clinique superfit had much more coverage, but then again, it's a little too dark for my skintone. (I guess the saleslady thought I was too pale too). But I will say that my mother loves the max factor color adapt. I can't understand why though! But if your skin has an uneven texture and you're trying to cover up uneven tones, then don't get it. It just lets it show through.

After searching for the best makeup for coverage without looking heavy I finally found one! AmyMichelle Cosmetics Matte-Finish Foundation gives me the best coverage and doens't look or feel heavy. It covers everything I need it to so I don't have to use concealer! highly recommended!
