Foundation for Acne

Try chanel or Dior forever foundations. I'm using chanel now in this texas heat and it holds up allllll day. It covers EVERYTHING. I have tons of redness and a little bit of a break out

It's all about the color correction too! Color correct before your concealer and foundation and you may not even need to buy an expensive brand. I use drug store and it works perfectly fine when I use my primer and color corrector

I also know people that use tarte and Kat von d for full coverage.

Check out IT foundation. I got mine at ulta and it covers well for me!

When I was in a wedding we went and got samples of Estée Lauder double wear from a department store. Enough for a few days and it lasted all day.

Tey going to a beauty store like ulta or sephora and ask them! They are very knowledgable about makeup and what woukd work best with your skin type.

I use Estée Lauder and it works great!!

I would go to a make up store like Ulta to get color matched and listen to their suggestions if you haven't already just to make sure you get the perfect one!

Firstly you are gonna want a primer to keep your foundation on and make it go on as smooth as possible. I suggest smash box or makeupforever smoothing. I like tarte Amazonian clay 12 hour foundation for acne full coverage. It's matte but you can add radiance with highlighters. I also like tarte shapetape concealer for blemishes. Make sure you also powder so that the oils don't break up your makeup. Nothing with flashback! Laura mercier powder is good but take pictures in different lighting to make sure nothing is astray. Last finish with a setting spray! Very important. Urban decays all nighter is my favorite.

You want to start with a color correcting primer I HIGHLY recommend SmashBox but it is pricey, you can go to Ulta and get the NYX brand, theirs is the photo finish color correcting primer. It's Cosmetics also has a really good Bye Bye Redness serum that just came out a few months ago and I swear by it.

Foundation you want to drop the money on a good foundation. I recommend either Urban Decay Up All Night or Kat Von D. I use both and they really are full coverage. You're going to want to use a setting powder and I recommend Kat Von D's Lock It setting powder. And then stop it off with a setting spray.

It's going to be pricey but worth it

I agree with Hannah, go see what the wonderful people of Sephora or Ulta have to offer. (I prefer sephora) I have always had a great experience with the help they offer. More importantly though, get on this asap! I highly recommend trying out whatever you want to use between now and your big day!

Use color correctors and a color correcting primer underneath for scarring. I recommend two foundations:

- Tarte Amazonian Clay Full Coverage with SPF

- Urban Decay Naked Skin

Both are buildable foundations. Very smooth! They both have insane amounts of shades as well. I will say, all Kat Von D products I've used oxidized terribly on my skin and they do not have a huge selection of shades. Good luck!!!!

Is your reception inside? Sometimes with pictures if the flash is used you can get what's called "flashback" from foundations with SPF and some setting powders. Please do your research on flashback causes if you are having any parts of your wedding indoors.

Second Estee Lauder double wear!

Try: Clinique acne solutions makeup. Estee Lauder double wear, Lancome Teint Idol Ultra, or MAC

Go to Ulta or Sephora and see if they can give you a free trial of some that they recommend, just let them know you need FULL coverage and long lasting!

I personally use IT Cosmetics.

I use neutrogena foundation because it treats the acne while covering it. I've been using it for years and it's helped me a lot.

IT cosmetics covers VERY well!!

If you can find someone available I'd splurge for airbrush makeup. It is waterproof and covers VERY well.

I have the Kat Von D foundation and it's a full coverage foundation. Also make sure to use setting spray and primer to lock in your makeup for a long lasting look.

Do not use MAC foundation. I have the acne problem as well and some scarring. This foundation is dense and oily, which we don't need. My cousin is doing my makeup. I do use Tarte but I don't think it covers that well. Hope this helps.
