I deal with frequent breakouts and redness. I've tried a few concealers but my redness still shows through or it'll kind of fade or rub off :/ I've heard of dermablend for concealing but I'm not ready for that kinda money jump. So, any help? Any good coverage foundations under $20?

Try to purchase oil-free products, I would suggest Neutrogena SkinClearing foundation and my favorite thing to apply before applying my foundation is Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream: Combination to Oily Skin. Hope this helps!

Try a green-tinted primer (Smashbox and NYX make great ones) to counteract the redness. As far as some of the cheaper foundations go, try Revlon Colorstay or Clinique Stay Matte.
If you want to invest in anything, it should be a good setting spray. It makes all of the difference. My favorite is Model In A Bottle.

I like Mac concealer. Yes it's in a tiny pot and it's $18 so it's a tad expensive but I have acne prone skin and it covers all my blemishes, it applys great, and of course with all makeup you should wash it off to avoid break outs.

Ok for a flawless look my secret is; smash box colour correcting primer or too faced primed and poreless, Estée Lauder double wear (either maximum coverage camouflage if extreme acne or stay in place foundation if not) and for concealer I like double wear also. If I get paranoid about shine I will use Clinique stay matte powder or almost make up powder.

I agree with Meg about Too Faced Primed & Poreless and Estee Lauder Max CC Luv those products but I read that you want products at the cost of under $20 and Too faced and Estee L are well above that price range so I would suggest Hard Candy camouflage concealer it's around $6 at walmart the other option is Neutrogena products since you have redness & break outs.I would also like to suggest when you want to buy a product that cost more but want it to work with your skin I say Cover FX is wonderful for sensitive acne prone skin and it provides super high coverage and has a lasting Matte finish.Here is their Brand Philosophy :)

I agree with bare minerals but it didn't cover my acne, it was fine when I didn't have blemishes. So for covering well I recommend Merle Norman (look on their website) mineral foundation, it allows my skin to breathe instead of masking with a foundation, it gives me a flawless face and I use elf studio kabuki brush $6 with it... I first moisturize and prime with rimmel londons fix and perfect and cover dark circles/blemishes with Hard Candy (walmart) Glamoflauge concealer applied w/ elf studio complexion brush and then apply the mineral powder and BAM flawless face. Believe I have tried every single foundation that others on here have named and the Merle Norman has been the best thing for me

Do you have dry or oily skin?

If your skin is prone to breakouts I would be very careful with smashbox primers and foundations! They are notorious for creating major breakouts to already prone skin :)
