Pimple and its picture day! will bare minerals work to cover it up?

Question

i have a red pimple on my cheek. would bare minerals work to cover it up because that is the only makeup i have.

Answer 1

ok so go to walmart are your nearest store and look for clearasil vanishing creme...they have a cover up one the color of your skin and they also have a white one..but the cover up one covers up the pimple plus it gets ready of it in like a day are two..it works wonders..i use it all the time..

Answer 2

bare minerals is great, it covers really well with a natural finish. it should do ok by itself if thats the only makeup you have, but it depends on how bad the blemish is. if you have other makeup or can borrow some from a friend, here's what i suggest:

if you have concealer, try dabbing some on, not rubbing, to get full coverage, and if you dont have concealer specifically, try the same approach with regular liquid foundation.

with that and a dusting of B.M., you should be good to go :]

Answer 3

It covers up mine just fine. If you have a concealer brush, dab some on and blend it in gently. If you blend it out too much and you can see the redness again just put some more on and do it again. You can do this with your fingers too but the brush is the best. Then apply the foundation like normal around you face and blend it around the spot where you put the concealer on until you can't see it.  

Answer 4

try it and see i would think so i have it to and i think it works pretty well just make sure that it matches your skintone! the best way to cover it up is to put a dab of conceler on it (a shade lighter then your skin) blend that in and then put the powder over it good luck

Answer 5

Bare minerals works wonders.  The bump will still be there, but if you cover it right you should be okay.

Now if you had a cyst-like pimple on your chin or something, even if you do cover it up it'll look bad.

Also, don't ever cover up a pimple with a lighter shade because it draws even more attention to it.  If anything find a green colored concealer (I know Avon has some) for red acne and it will balance the shade out so it looks more natural and then you can cover it up with normal foundation.

Answer 6

Yes, take a small brush, or your finger and rub a small amount over the zit. Then, take the big brush and buff over it (and the rest of your face) as you normally would.  Bare minerals is all I wear and this is how I cover up a zit.  If pictures are tomorrow, put some bare minerals on the zit  before you go to bed, it will help dry it out.  Good luck!
