Answer 2

you should treat the source of the problem, not just cover it up.

have you started using a new kind of makeup recently? a new face wash? a new lip gloss even? if so, you might want to try not using them to see if it makes the acne go away. (it might take a couple weeks to see results). if that doesnt help, go to a dermatologist! they can prescribe medications for it or even recommend ways to prevent it.

--in the mean time: dab foundation on it and blend it with your finger. then powder over it. if that doesn't quite cut it, find a stick concealer (not the liquid kind) and try that and top with powder. the stick concealers tend to be more opaque.

Answer 3

Usually using foundation helps a lot with covering acne.

For your scab, honestly I would tell you to pell it off becuase when I get a pimple and I popit and I get a scab, I peel it off and then its like nothing was ever there. But if you dont wanna do that you should just let it go away by itself over time.

Answer 4

I have the same issue and had issues with other clients that broke out in the T zones (upper lip, chin, nose to forehead... ). I pop it and put Polysporin (the best stuff) and overnight or at home put like a lot on the pimple that's popped for several days (I mask it by using mineral powder like Bare Essentials with concealer... if you can't get that... go to any Rite Aid, Target, Walmart and get any mineral powder foundation makeup to mask it). Anyway... keep doing that for three days and notice that the scab will come off... and when it does... there's no mark on you!!

Answer 5

Really, unless you want to make it worse, I suggest just leaving it alone until it heals.

Pimples develope when pores get clogged with oil, dirt, make-up, ect.

So trying to cover it up with make-up wont help much.

Just keep it clean and it will heal faster.

If you MUST try to cover it, try not using cream concealers, or foundations. Those are more likely to clog the pores and make it worse.

Use a powder or something.

Answer 6

try to start a face cleaning routine and develope the habit to do it every night at the most if u can. go get a facial clean (w/e u call it) at least every month to keep ur face well. what u can do to cover it up is just put a light foundation on ur skin. =]

Answer 7

Well, the first thing you should do is wash your fast daily, and get a cotton pad and rub witch hazel all over your face. And wear u have pimples just get a Q-tip and put peroxide on it. IT works really well!!!!! That should probably not make your acne so bad if u do it twice a day. MAKE SURE YOU MOISTURIZE!!!!!!!!!!!!! But, its good to just go to Sephora and buy the face powder. Its light, and it doesn't look like you have on glop's of makeup. Just go to the Sephora Employees and ask if they can help you pick out your shade. The face Powder is really good,trust me. Then, just put some light blush on your cheek bones. This all works really well. Don't put on the cream face make up x[! That stuff is bad for your skin, and looks all gloppy and looks like you have on a bunch of face makeup! yuck! I really hope this helped! =)
