You might have to buy special foundation for people who have this problem. Often dermotolgist offices sell these cosmetics. I don't think you even have to see the doctor.

I suggest that you not wear foundation. If you have acne, I'm going to field a guess that you are mostly likely in your teens or perhaps your early twenties. Therefore, you really don't need foundation, your youth is beauty enough. If I have assumed incorrectly, or you want it anyways, I suggest going to Clinique, there stuff is great and they claim it to be non allergenic. If you are experiencing breakouts of acne due to foundation, first I wouldlike to remind you that cleaning your face of makeup each night is as important as choosing the right product for your skin. I will again suggest Clinique as they have some great cleansers to go with their makeup so you can remove it properly. If you are having allergic reactions however, I would suggest going to see an allergy expert to get a scratch test so you can find out exactly what it is you allergic to, and thus avoid it.

Bare Minerals is GREAT. I love it and it lasts forever.

My friend uses Prescriptives. She gets really bad acne and says this product is the only one that doesn't break her out.

I have acne problems with every cream and also suffer from sebhoreic dermatitis and the only thing that helps me is Light Hydrating creme(normal to combination skin) from Avene. I use it even after shaving.

Arbonne international - They have the best skin care and make-up. I was turned on to it a year ago and I wont use anything else.

the truth is, i don't believe no ance medicine will work, i think it's all phony and garbage... i tried alot of things too for the last couple of years and it worked to an extent. but it would never be completely clear, it would decrease the numbers of acne but that's it... then one day i just got fed up and realize that nothing works so i just stop using everything... including proactiv.... i just use water at night and morning... i don't pick at it , only pop it before i go to bed and just apply some face mask( that's all i use for my face) and that's it... my face got clearer and i'm not afraid to look in the mirror no more and trust me... that's good... i tend to drink at least 9 bottles a water a day and that helps.. soda and fast food like chips and stuff makes me break out... one important thing i do is face my fears... when u have acne you will have alot of fears... i just face it because by doing that your putting your foot down and making some adjustments... nothing works for your face but natural water... natural healing is the best... i don't actually use anything even when i have the flu or cold or stomach pain , tooth pain, i think drugs are bad...

I use Neutrogena Skin Clearing makeup... It has salylic acid in it I think. It doesn't exactly make breakouts go away, but it definitely does not hurt my face at all. It's also drugstore price which is very helpful. Just to mention, I heard that Proactiv has ingredients that react badly with most ingredients of makeup... My aunt who is a dermatologist offered other prescription acne meds to me. Just for your consideration =]

Get Murad acne complex kit at amazon or sephora.It really works & I've tried everything.Make sure to put a layer under your makeup.Use Bare esentuls bare minerals or covergirl simply powder foundation(says non acnegenic on back).Murad also has concealer for blemishes.So far all liquid foundations still break me out.
