So I've got fair skin, pretty moderate acne, and i have acne scars too, so i need a great foundation that covers all of this without sliding off, without getting cakey on me, and blends/matches skin tone well! can anyone recommend a foundation/concealer they've found at a drugstore that might work for me? I'm currently using cover girl trueblend but don't like it.

Maybe Revlon Color Stay?? They have formulas for dry and oily skins and it's very full coverage...

I have the same problem, my skin is really oily and usually gets shiny after a few hours ... try to minimize your acne first, wash your face at night and if you have to use makeup I recommend Covergirl for oily skin and after a couple hours the powder works well

Neutrogena blemish control in your color. It helped control my break outs and prevents new ones. I use it often and it doesn't get oily or run off I retouch it maybe one in six hours. Good luck !!

ive found that revlon colorstay really has the best coverage for my acne scars because it provides medium-full coverage, which im assuming is what you need. i also use a bit of hard candy's glamoflage concealer too...which is also the best full coverage concealer that is cheap.

Physicians formula worked for me when I had terrible acne. Some stores sell a kit that's specifically made for evening out skin tone. Plus, it didn't make my acne worse like most makeup.
