What's the best foundation for oily and acne prone skin?

i'm using acne medication from my dermatologist and it's working but school is starting soon for me and i want a foundation to cover up my flaws (black heads, redness, large pores, oily skin and acne - yeah, i have horrible skin).


i'm hearing liquid foundation clogs up pores, powder foundation gives you a cakey look, etc-- ugh! i don't know what i should be looking for tomorrow when i go shopping at Ulta, since this is my first time getting any type of makeup. (i'm 16) x)


please help.What's the best foundation for oily and acne prone skin?
I would buy Urban Decay Make up... Since you're a teen, it won't be too harsh on your face and it's really gentle. Urban Decay make up is made with all vegan ingredients so it won't harm your skin. I'm 17 and I use it and my skin hasn't had a problem with it ( and I have really sensitive skin). However the downside is that their products are a bit pricey, but I would say it is well worth it!








BTW You can also get it at a Macy's store..What's the best foundation for oily and acne prone skin?
definitely go for mineral (:


and i always recommend this for people but you should try neutrogena wave (: its like on the ad a really weird little machine thing that removes makeup, pimples, clogged pores, oily skin etc etc etc (: but you should use this only costs about $20 at the most and for the foundation you should go for a natural mineral to start off with because normal foundation will only clog your pores more. take a look at the link below. Mineral secrets mineral makeup is a great alternative to actual makeup and you should definitely try it out (: good lucck
Covergirl Trublend whipped foundation.


I use it, and it covers nicely, eliminates shine, doesn't look cakey and most importantly DOESN'T clog pores nearly as much as other foundations do.


But you won't find it at ulta, i don't think.


at target you will
my skin is really sensitive, and i use maybelline mineral powder:)


it has good coverage, and doesnt clog my pores,


so i dont break out(:

i have extremellyyyyyy oily skin, and i have acne, plus majorrr blackheads. my face also gets ready very easy because i am pale and a redhead. i have used pretty much all drugstore brands and decided to try something else. i was at macy's one day and one of the women at the elizabeth arden makeup stand stopped me and wanted to put makeup on me because she noticed mine was all over my face because of oil, and my skin was discolored. she used the Elizabeth Arden Pure Finish Mineral Powder Foundation. and i must say, it is AMAZING! it lasts all day, and has medium to heavy coverage. clears all my acne and blackheads aren't visible. covers my redness, everything. i looooove ittt! and the cool thing is, even though elizabeth arden is more expensive, you pretty much always get a tonnn of free stuff. seriously, i just wanted the foundatio and i walked out with blush, eyeshadow, liner, lipstick, and tonsss of other stuff. it's definitely worth the money, and that stuff is the greatest. of course, on days it's extremelyyyyy hottt, you may have to use an oil sheet around your oily spots, because it may get a little greasy feeling, but def. won't show up. greatest stuff ever made! trust meee.
