A good foundation that prevents acne and doesn't get face to oily. Or more than it already is? I use to use Mac but found it to heavy for my skin and made me get more pimples.

Face Primer would be good Rimmel Stay Matte is affordable and a good product, Neutrogena Clear Skin Oil Free Foundation, and Physicians Formula Rx Concealer. Make sure you wash brushes regularly and your pillowcase.

I believe the cover fx creme foundation is for all skin types. (someone correct me if I am wrong) the cream does have a transfer to it but if you set it with a setting powder, I'm sure it would reduce some transfer. I think they actually have a waterproof setting powder.

I just bought neutrogena skin clearing foundation. It has salicylic acid in it :)
I'm VERY oily and have acne prone skin. It's supposed to be light-medium coverage but it is buildable! I've used it for 2 days and such a dramatic difference! I've only had to blot my face once a day :)

Bare minerals is really good I started using it over a year ago and my skin has cleared up a lot it has no chemicals in it so is very good for the skin. I have the same pot of powder foundation for 7 months now and I wear makeup everyday so its lasting very well.??

Just remember what works for one person might not work for you. So trying sample sizes of the products is really a good idea. My daughter has tried everything under the sun for her acne , proactive, bare minerals and the products that is finally working for her is
CLINIQUE Acne Solutions Clear Skin System | $54.50, there is a make-up and concealer that goes along with this system too. Her complexion is the best it's ever been!

Use cover fx clear prep, it's a mate foundation primer and anti acne treatment gel. it has only 1% salycilic acid. more than that makes my skin peel, but if you need more there's the new smashbox primer with 2%. and I use a mineral powder foundation.
