Best concealer for hormonal acne please

Definitely peri menopausal (47) Once a month I get lump like spots around my jaw no head so I can’t squeeze them (tmi sorry!) so I need something heavy duty to cover them up until they go away.
Give me your best tips please S&B gurus

I think maybelline is the best concealer, the age one and the stick one are both really good and so cheap

Thanks ThatIsNacho do they give good coverage?

You want a dry-ish and non highlighting concealer that stays put on oily skin.
I can't recommend Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage enough. Because you get two colours in the palette, you can adjust for perfect coverage.

It's a bit pricey but oxgenetix acne control foundation. Contains salicylic acid so not only covers but works to fight the spots.

That's the one I'm angling towards OHolyNight

It is great, I have used mine for years. I use SC2 in the winter and SC3 in the summer, but best to find a counter and try them yourself. Just remember to set it with some powder.

Mac prolongwear is perfect for what you need. Not too dryer but still absorbs oil. Stays put all day.
