Well I got mine at ross but its kinda hard I have to squeeze it many times so it can be manageable, I have heard really good things on the real techniques sponge.

A beauty blender will really help and no need to splash out on the real expensive one there are many dupes on amazon that work just as well.A primer might help,I hear the more you rub it in the nicer,silkier finish it gives.There are some youtube videos on how to but I find not many of the girls have raised bumps to cover up. I know many people find applying foundation to acne prone skin without it looking cakey hard.Applying foundation to acne prone skin can make it worse and clog up the pores and make it worse.If you still want to cover it I recommend a tea tree oil concelar which helps the pimples while you have makeup on.

I've never used a Beauty blender personally, but I think that could solve the problem.

I also agree with a good foundation primer, to give you a smooth, silky canvas. Too Faced Primed and Poreless Pure gives that silky finish and so does Smashbox Photo Finish. (NOT the light one, the original.) I don't have any drugstore picks because I'm not familiar with drugstore primers.

Don't apply foundation to blemishes. Use concealer then blend really well.

Green concealer under your usual one to cancel out redness, pat it on with your finger, also pat and blend foundation. that works best for me x
