Well I have acne and scars. What is the best makeup that works for you. Is there really a makeup that can hide the scars and blemishes? What works for you?

Thanks,
Charlotte

I would suggest Ben Nye. Its stage make up and hides acne and such. It isnt to thick but you will have to play with blending until you get use to it.

I personally haven't used these products, but I have heard great things about Bare Minerals, Sheer Cover, Mineral Basics, J. Lynne and Jane Iredale - these are all mineral makeup lines that have great coverage, are very lightweight and breathable and will cover up acne scars. I've heard wonderful things about all of these lines and I am actually trying to decide which one to buy now! But I think I will just cave in and buy samples from them all to see which one I like best.

Good luck to you!

Yes, deifnitely try bare minerals. I have some shallow acne scars and this foundation provides coverage without accentuating the scars. Doesn't even look like you are wearing make-up and is great for touch-ups. Also, it will not cause break-outs.
