Hello,
Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for foundation to go over acne.

Thank you

My daughter battled acne flare ups for a long time and found that the best coverage for her was (on clean skin); e.l.f. ‘Blemish Fighting Putty Primer’ to gently even out skin tone, followed by e.l.f. Camo Colour Corrector in Green (a tiny amount dabbed on the reddest spots). This is a great, inexpensive range, available at Superdrug in the UK. Would you consider trying prescription skincare to clear your skin? It really works. My daughter (late teens) started on it last year and honestly we couldn’t believe the improvement. (Monderma subscription service - after an online consultation they send a customised formula to you each month). I hope the above suggestions help in the meantime.

I had acne and after Covid it cleared up , I think it’s because the foundation I was using was clogging my pores. I moved to Clinque anti blemish and not had a problem since. So it may not cover it up but it helps the skin recover.
