I have acne and red skin and would highly recommend bare minerals/ bare escentuals. It covers up without looking like you have make up on. Because you use a brush to apply the minerals you are not irritating your face with your hands like you would if it was a liquid foundation.
IMO, if you have acne, you probably shouldn't be wearing makeup, especially to cover it up. It'll just make it worse. Instead of buying a new foundation, invest in proper skincare. If you have beautiful skin, it really doesn't matter what foundation you use.
Mac studio fix the new kat Von d foundation and for drugstore I really like the Revlon color- stay whipped foundation or neutrogena healthy skin :) hope that helped !

I'm obsessed with HD makeup forever! The best part is its non comodegenic which means it won't clog pores!
