Foundation for oily/acne skin?

Just wondered if anyone on here suffers from acne and if so what foundation do you use? I have acne scars and still get occasional spots and i wanted a good foundation to help cover them.

anyone? I'd be interested too

i use Prescriptives which is available from House of Fraser, they also do "Customblend" where they mix your ideal shade. I love it as I have quite a few scars. Good luck

I suffer with acne, too, chuckie.

I use Avon's Mineral foundation without too much trouble.

I'm interested too. I don't think I can stretch to perscriptives but may try the avon one?

Try dermalogica. I use their treatment foundation. It costs around £25 for a tube and it lasts me 6 months or so. You dont need to use much.

i buy mine from www.halomineralmakeup.co.uk it is just as good as lilylolo but much cheaper and has no nasty chemicals in it just pure minerals.it soothes my skin really well , i used to by lilylolo but it got too expensive in the long run and this stuff is so much cheaper but really good quality, it covers my rosacea and acne which can be a real drag to live with. you get a sample of a darker shade foundation to mix in with your foundation which i find fab.

I suffer very badly,break outs last forever and I have some scarring and enlarged pores.. but for the last few months I have been using Rimmel true match minerals and it is totally amazing, looks like I am not wearing makeup, but covers beautifully and (touch wood) no break out!! just the odd pimple
