I have tried numerous of foundations and they seem to make me break out with acne. I have super sensitive skin and it drives me crazy. I like a medium/full coverage and also my skin is a little dry. I would appreciate any input! Thanks.

What foundation are you currently using? Primer? Do you set with powder or use a setting spray? Also, what type of acne do you get when you break out?

(Also does your skin break out when you don't wear foundation?)

Have you tried stuff by coverFX or Clinique or Estée Lauder? Those brands make products specific for sensitive skin types and none have irritated my sensitive acne prone skin.

A great full coverage imo is Hourglass immaculate foundation. a for light/medium I like Mabelene dream pure bb cream. it has salicylic acid in it to help keep my acne in check. will you let us know what you decide?
