Okay so every time I cover pimples the usually end up looking black? I moisturize, prime, green concealer (because they are always so red), reg concealer and then powder and foundation. But when I'm done it looks black! Its mainly just with popped pimples or just really bad ones but it looks so gross with no makeup and then just as bad with? How can I fix this?!!

It's ok to use green and then skin colored tru moisturizing it more and a more full coverage concealer.

Sorry guys I meant scabs! Thank you all so much for answering, you helped a lot. I do blend a lot but matter what it always looks disgusting no matter what application method I use. I'll have to try a yellow toned correcting concealer to see if that helps. Thanks again!
