I need to know what type of DRUGSTORE brand foundation to use on my oily and acne prone face!

Question

I'm on a budget, so a reasonably price foundation would be perfect!

Answer 1

My favorite's are Cover Girl Clean compact($4). I like the one in the green colored compact. And NYC's Transulcent Powder($2). If your not familiar with translucent powder, it absorbs oil and sets the foundation so it lasts longer.

Answer 2

any kind of mineral based makeup is best for acne-prone skin. Physicians Formula has all mineral makeup, and WetnWild at the drugstore does too.

Answer 3

N.Y.C smooth mineral loose foundation powder! definetly! its like 7 dollars and can be picked up at any drug store, i got mine at CVS! I have acne and wow, its soo awsome!! i can't believe i ever wore that gross sticky liquid foundation. this is good for the skin, dosent clog pores and dosnt look oily and gross like foundation! :D

Answer 4

I have the same skin type and I prefer Neutrogena oil-free tinted moisturizer. It's sheer enough to not feel cakey and provides enough coverage, while not clogging pores. You can get it at a drugstore or Ulta for approx. $7-$9. Other than that, your best bet is to shell out a bit more for the Bare Minerals starter set b/c that is the ultimate best foundation for problematic skin.
