Hi y'all! I am doing my own makeup for my wedding (in 10 days!!!!!!!!). I have been on the search for a good foundation that will hide acne super well. I don't have HORRIBLE acne, but as a younger bride I still have some hormonal and now a bit of stress acne. I use a cheap drug store foundation just for daily use, it covers okay but doesn't last long (and it doesn't break me out in any way, it just doesn't last). Since my wedding is on one of the hottest days of the year, outside, in South Carolina, I am definitely looking for a well covering, long lasting foundation. Thank you in advance!!

It works on open wounds (like open pimples- sorry to be gross!) I am an actress and I had a bad breakout before a shoot last week and I asked the makeup artists what they were using on my big zits- and they said BOOBOO. I ordered it the next day and have been using it ever since! I don't use it on my whole face, I use L'Oréal Lumi Foundation or Maybelline FitMe, but it covers my zits and breakout areas like magic.

Estee Lauder Double Wear! And get a good primer. Urban Decay DeSlick is pretty good.

Use a good primer first! I like Givenchy mattifying primer (I have oily skin), and Make Up Forever HD, both are from Sephora. When I was younger I used Bare Minerals which worked very well but I now prefer liquid foundation to powder.

I definitely recommend heading over to Sephora and getting color matched - tell them you need a full-coverage foundation and they'll be able to find something perfect for your skin type.

I have combo acne-prone skin as well and my favorites are:
Estee Lauder Double Wear
Makeup Forever HD
Dior Forever

Drugstore Brands - Wet and Wild Photo Finish is actually a pretty decent foundation for a low price; lasts me all day and looks great in photos.

Tarte shape tape is also a GREAT full-coverage concealer that doesn't crease.
And a primer is super important! My favorite is the Smashbox Photo Finish or Too Faced Hangover
