If you suffer from blemish-prone skin, no doubt you’ve been told that makeup can make it worse, however this is not entirely true! Although acne can form if cosmetics are not washed off correctly, makeup itself is not the root cause. However, if you are prone to pimples, we recommend reaching for cosmeceutical cosmetics that are created by Dermatologists to help improve your complexion. Not sure where to start? We’ve rounded up the top products that are specially designed for blemish-prone skin.
Clinique Anti Blemish Solutions Liquid Makeup
If you’re after a natural looking finish, the Clinique Anti Blemish Solutions Liquid Makeup is the perfect foundation for you. The lightweight formula provides a natural to medium coverage to help cover up discolouration or redness caused by acne. Infused with blemish busting ingredients, this foundation not only helps to reduce pimples, but also works to prevent any new ones forming – win win! Another great thing about this foundation is that it doesn’t cling onto dry patches, so you can create a smooth, soothed canvas with ease.
VICHY Dermablend Covermatte Compact Powder Foundation
If you prefer a little more coverage, the iconic VICHY Dermablend Covermatte Compact Powder Foundation is your go-to. Perfect for oily and acne-prone skin, the formula helps to shrink the appearance of pores whilst improving the overall texture of your skin. Infused with Zinc Gluconate and Salicylic Acid, the foundation offers up to 12 hours of full, buildable coverage to help you create the ultimate non-cakey finish.
