I have sensitive, combination, acne prone skin, Can you recommend non-acnegenic, non-comedogenic foundation?

Question

I used several prouducts, but got break outs, black heads and redness......
Please help
Thank you

Answer 1

I really like the Bare Minerals, Everyday Minerals and Estee Lauder's Equalizer Makeup. I have used all of them and can reccommend them. The Equalizer controls oil where you need it & not where you don't, and all 3 are oil-free and have a non-chemical sunscreen. Always look for Titanium or zinc as the active ingredient in a sunscreen- more often as not it's a chemical sunscreen that makes a foundation irritate skin. Minerals are inert and so don't make your skin react.

Answer 2

Look for products that contain NO oil. Oil Free. The water based foundations are much better for the skin. I think Shisheido is very good for combination skin, which is what I have. The ladies at the counter are very nice too!

And for the acne, I would see a dermatologist. Otherise go to the mall and look for the Proactiv stand, it helped me control my acne and now I only use it when I get a pimple or two.

Answer 3

The new Maybelline Pure Make-Up is designed for people with problem skin such as pimples, and for sensitive skin, so it is a godsend for me. I have sensitive, combination AND acne-prone skin too, and although I've never tried this foundation, it sounds great! Go to the website, and check it out!

Answer 4

stop using products for a while..then get into the habit of using all natural product like olive oil and liquid vitamin e ...after skin has cleared use hypoallergenic make up...if you are ance prone..use a powder foundation instead of liquid....

Answer 5

actually neutrogena makes foundations and makeup. you can check em out at walmart. or you can use maybelline's clear smooth gel foundation. its made out of 50% water and wont clog pores. after using the gel foundation, use a light powder to cover up.

Answer 6

Use Biotherm products. They have products specifically made for your skin type. If you want something a little cheaper, definitaly use Almay.

Answer 8

for very sensitive skin, you should try all-natural mineral makeups.

there are many out there ... glo minerals, bare escentuals, etc...

but jane iredale is the top of the line brand that many dermatologists promote in their practices.

Answer 9

I use Revlon, I have the same horrible skin too. I find that Revlon brands are best because they don't add to your problem. Try it, hopefully it works well.

Answer 10

almay cosmetics area all that, and they are hypo-allergenic as well. i think you'll really like almays line of cosmetics. they fit your description.
