@Ailani: No moisturizer? Just cleanser? Hrm...

I think, even if you don't break out all the time or have issues with oiliness or dryness, you still need a consistent skincare routine, even if it's just a gentle cleanser and a moisturizer once a day. If you're going to wear makeup on your face, you need that good clean base to start with. I'll also suggest using a spot treatment for the acne itself. Burt's Bees has an excellent one that I thought they discontinued, but they still make (and I am very happy about it, because I love it!).

In terms of covering it, seems like you've found something that works for you. Yay! :)

Revlon ColorStay foundation is awesome! It hides all my acne, my scarring, and what not.

I bought Dermablends concealer and foundation and I'm in love. I don't think I'll ever switch to anything else. This brand is so amazing.

I swear by Benefit Hello Flawless Oxygen WOW for foundation, I have stress breakouts too, you can build your coverage but I have found that even just a light layer covers most of my redness. As for concealer, smashbox makes this amazing solid stick concealer, full coverage without feeling heavy.

Christina, I've never heard of either of those, I'll definitely look into them though.

Ashley, I used to wear Bare Minerals, but it never gave me coverage without applying a heap load of it. I don't like nor want to have to wear a lot to get coverage so I stopped using it.

Amazing cosmetics amazing concealer is what it says, AMAZING!! It should be called an eraser because it leaves no trace on the skin of you wearing makeup it just blends, and for foundation, tarte amazonian clay foundation, it's full coverage and doesn't feel heavy on your skin, it feels like your wearing no makeup at all!! Hope this helps :)

Fortune, I don't have acne. I only break out when I'm stressed, which is usually never. I clear up on my own within a day or two of breaking out, plus I can't just use any treatment, my skin doesn't do well with the majority of cleansers. So I just stick to the one brand I have that works.

I might be able to check out the even complexion product though, but I don't know if that would have the same affect on my skin as cleansers do. No, I'm living in the US.

Antonio, I'm going tomorrow actually to purchase some Dermablend concealer and foundation. I've heard and seen a lot of good things from it, so it looks like it's going to be a new favorite for me.

Ailani I work as a Mary Kay independent beauty consultant. If you have acne I would suggest you try the acne treatment set. It works wonders, it treats the acne and clears the marks as well. Our even completion essence is good for clearing skin discolouration. Do you live in the uk? 

I haven't tried any full coverage stuff, but I heard a lot of good things about dermablend, you should check it out it might be the thing if you want to get a flawless skin if you've got anything from scars to discoloration or anything in between.

Laura Geller's The Real Deal Concealer. Best concealer I've tried.

Denisha, I can't wear MAC. It breaks me out.

If your skin is über dry and acne prone, check out bliss clog dissolving cleansing milk. It works great both as a gentle cleanser and a five minute mask. I have the same problem with cleansers making my skin flaking, especially if they are acne cleansers. This one keeps my skin clear and doesn't strip it.

Look into colored concealers. I know a green concealer will cancel out redness. I use green to conceal the red on my cheeks.
There are other colors that help for different situations.

Dana, I've actually never used any YSL products, so I might check that out.

Mary, the stress is gone. My skin is just deciding not to clear afterwards. I've tried the MUFE foundation, and I love it. But I have to buy two shades in order to get my right fit, and it's far too expensive to do that when I have a 2 year old at home.

Kelly, I just watched a bunch of videos on Dermablend's concealer, I've heard a lot of great reviews about it, but never really checked it out. I think I'll be purchasing that soon.
As far as foundation, I can't wear anything from MAC, for some reason they always break me out.
I've never tried the Perfect Cover BB Cream either, but I think I might try it out as well.
