Hey everyone!
I need a good high brand foundation for acne scars that doesn't have oil but still moisturizing and doesn't brake you out.
Thanks!

sometimes all you need is a good concealer (that isn't cakey, you know?) and i found too faced absolutely flawless concealer to be REALLY GOOD at covering up acne scarring.. you could try that and stick to your foundation or try makeup forever's HD!

try a mineral foundation they are really good cover ups and are good for sensitive skin and are totally oil free. I like useing Avons "smooth minerals" because it is light, and covers extreamly well and it dosnt make me break out. If you want a bit of moisture under try a day spf cream under it. Avon also has their smooth minerals foundation in pressed powder and liquid foundation. But I like the loose powder the best

I've heard good things about Make up Forever HD Foundation covering very very well, but I also agree that Mineral foundation might be the better choice for skin:)

Bo--ing concealer by Benefit is great for covering acne marks. Revlon Colorstay is a great full-coverage foundation. MUFE HD is good, doesn't fully cover all of my scarring, but it's much more light weight than the colorstay foundation.

Like the others who recommend mineral, I would also say that would be a good choice.

Back when I had cystic acne and horrible breakouts, I covered my face with tons of concealer and foundation... to a point where it was basically caked on. I thought I should be letting my face breath... so I switched to Meow Cosmetics and got their highest coverage mineral foundation. It covered just the same, and my face finally got the fresh air it needed.

I will say, no matter how much product I packed on my face to conceal the scars and acne, the brown scars and pimple still showed through (like Jordan mentioned, it would "slide" off)
