It will still get worse becuase the foundation is blocking all of your pores and you will never be able to clean it all out, so yes, it will still get worse
Putting any sort of makeup on your acne will just irritate it and make it worse or cause it to take longer to heal. i know that the temptations of covering it up are so big, but its best if you just leave it be.
if you use mineral makeup thats usually better for your skin.
and its still somewhat bad for your skin because your keeping it on for most of the day, other than sleeping. think of it as not wearing it out, then putting it on at night, it can still affect your skin
You should try the Neutrogena skin clearing foundation. It is wonderful for acne prone skin and gives great coverage. If you have breakouts it will actually dry them up while you wear it. It has certain acids and acne medication in it. It really works!
It won’t make your acne any worse, so don’t worry about that. Make sure you do clean it off at night, preferably using a mild cleanser designed for your skin type.
No, that is the kind of foundation I use and it doesn’t cog pores. If you use a foundation with oils in it, or sleep in it, then yes, you are risking breakouts. If you are just using the foundation daily and washing it off at night, you shouldn’t experience any skin problems.
If you notice that you are getting more pimples and don’t know why, try and find a foundation that says “non-comedogenic” on it. This means it will not clog your pores.
Wearing foundation is fine, even when you have acne. It disguises the acne aswell. . .
As long as you wash it off afterwards, its fine. If you don’t wash it off then that could bring acne because you are basically leaving dirt on your face which causes spots.
Try applying a foundation primer, they’re expensive however they act as a mineral barrier between your skin and your foundation allowing your skin to breath and feel smooth. I recommend the Smash Box Foundation Primer for redness it’s green but dries clear. I promise you will love it. Also dont’ forget applying your foundation with a sponge allows it to go on more evenly and lighter.
yes , it will clog your pores, so get a non pore clogging , protecting mineral foundation, it will also stop your skin becoming oily.
I don’t think its particularly good for your skin but I have been wearing foundation on my skin nearly every day for the past two years and I haven’t noticed any difference. I wash it off before I go to bed and use moisturisers and cleansers.
It might agitate your spots a little, but as it helps to make them less noticeable I think you will be alright.
Maybe take a break from foundation for a few weeks if you can cope, see if your skin improves, if so, you will know your skin likes it best when there is no foundation to clog up the pores.
You could try a light powder foundation that doesn’t clog the pores so much and helps with oily skin cause it helps to soak up the excess oil in your skin.
Hope I helped.
I suffered really really bad with acne and yes foundation does make it worse, I got told a top top tip (however you will have to be seen in public with no make up and spots) however it does work. Wash with a non Perfume face scrub, pat dry, then put Vaseline all over, light in the day slightly heavier in the night it will take a fair few days but believe it works and doesn’t cost a fortune like me you may find that you don’t need to use foundation again good luck

…THE INFO’S BASED ON MY OWN EXPERIENCE. I’M 36 NOW SO I’VE HAD TO DEAL WITH THESE ISSUES FOR QUITE A WHILE AND THOUGH MUCH OF THIS ANSWER MAY BE IRRELEVANT, I HOPE THERE’LL BE SOMETHING THAT CAN HELP YOU!
GOOD LUCK!!!
RECOMMENDED SKIN CARE…I use clean and clear cream wash (good for sensitive skin or those that dry to easy) or Neutrogena clear skin make up remover wash. Both contain salicylic acid which prevents breakouts and gradually evens the skin tone out too. This is the most important thing you can do. I’ve tried various ‘oil free’/’salicylic acid’ moisturisers but the best I’ve found is the clean and clear on…I found the Neutrogena one actually seemed to aggravate my skin.
EMERGENCY SPOT TREATMENT!. . . The toothpaste things works! Put on a blob at night and put a bit of tissue over it so it doesn’t make a mess. It cools the area down and reduces the inflammation. I also recommend the clean and clear advantage spot treatment gel.
HORMONAL SPOTS…Any female with spots I’d recommend trying dianette or yasmine contraceptive pills because if it’s hormonal that can sort everything out within weeks…though it can take a couple of months to get used to the pill.
FACIAL ACNE: AVOID…Don’t use harsh scrubs and peroxide products daily like some people do; that can dry your skin and make produce MORE oil. . . just exacerbating the problem. Many face packs I’ve tried and those blackhead removal strips too seem to have caused problems.
I’ve also had problems with those ‘facial wipes’ made by clean and clear and Neutrogena because they’re too drying and when the top layer’s too dry, the oil gets stuck underneath and causes more problems!
Some say chocolate doesn’t affect it…it does for me and I don’t know how or why that should be but certain foods do seem to affect break out. Coffee is one of those things that seems to aggravate my skin too. So look out for anything you eat that might be making it worse.
HAIR PRODUCTS…Be careful what products you use in your hair if it’s long – certain conditioners have causes me to break out at times. Also be careful of hair gels, hair sprays and serums.
INGROWING HAIRS…For men or women…if you have oily skin, these are more likely. For men…use a facial scrub and avoid moisturisers that don’t have salicylic acid in them if you use a moisturiser. Some hair conditioners are much better lubricants than shaving cream too – so you might want to try that, and then was afterwards with a clean and clear was etc. Also I recommend the microdermabrasion kit mentioned later.
For women…waxing seems to cause the main problem – we pay most attention to our faces. Waxing seems to be the main culprit as opposed to shaving or hair removal creams…to avoid in-growing hairs, make sure to exfoliate. I recommend using those exfoliating gloves – that way, you can use any kind of shower gel.
NUTRITION…I recommend taking a 100% multi vitamin/mineral complex – those little spots you get around your mouth can be due to a vitamin b deficiency for example. Also I recommend Omega 369 oils every day because they improve blood flow.
OLD WIVES TALE??. . . It’s an ‘old wives tale’ type remedy – but a spoonful of cider vinegar and honey in hot water 3 times a day is meant to help EVERYTHING. It tastes nice too. . . kinda like honey and lemon X
HYDRATION…. Keep your hydration right by drinking plenty of water, avoiding caffeine and alcohol and too much salt!
DEALING WITH SCARRING…there’s an excellent micro-dermabrasion scrub called ‘re-finish’ by L’oreal. You only use it a couple of times a week (and use at night because it makes your face red!). It really works not just with the colouring but also the texture – smoothes it back out. It comes with it’s own moisturiser which I don’t use but I use the scrub at night a couple of times a week and put bio oil on which it supposed to help clear scarring and even skin tone.
If you get your skin relatively under control, try using ’21 days Fade Cream’ (which I get from eBay) because it quickly clears up any scarring. It’s a skin lightening cream and is very effective as long as your skin type agrees with it. Bio oil is a good alternative!
Also, to detract from the colour variations in your skin tone, I recommend using Benefit’s Posie Tint or Benetint lipstain – this can be put on your cheeks and lips (which also makes your teeth look whiter as an added bonus). Lipstain is better than lipstick because it doesn’t smudge and it stays on; you can put lip balm or lip gloss on over it. Also, if you use it (SPARINGLY) on your cheeks, it is just like putting water on there; it doesn’t aggravate the skin or cause breakouts.
