What is the best makeup that will cover acne scars?

Question

I have some old acne scars on my face and I need to know a good makeup that will cover them. I currently use CoverGirl but its like a liquid/powder in a compact thingy. It makes my skin look really oily. I don't like it.

Can someone tell me a different makeup to try that will cover scars really well and not make my skin look oily?

Answer 1

MAC has a great line of foundations, I would start there.  Just ask for some help  and I am sure that they will take care of you.  If that does not do the trick then there is a product called Dermablend that is made specifically for this but it is quite thick so if MAC will do it for you I would go with them first.

Answer 2

MAC studio fix and concealer and you need a primer.

Answer 3

I'd recommend a foundation with a shade that matches your skin color.  

Answer 4

1) Cook oatmeal and apply on face for fifteen minutes and wash.

2) Make a warm bath with blanch of nettle and rosemary.

3) Apply equal amount of lemon juice and rose water with a cotton ball and wash it after haif an hour for 15 to 20 days.

Answer 5

Okay I know that this sounds totally weird, but it is an inexpesive way to cover them up without having to buy new concealer. If you put just a tiny bit of green eyeshadow on your scars and then blending it in with the concealer, it will hide them, you won't even see the green. Its really crazy but my mom told me this secret and it actually works.  

Answer 6

Concealer - Cover Girl TruConcealer http://www.covergirl.com/products/produc...

Foundation - Neutrogena MIneral Sheers http://www.neutrogena.com/CosmeticsDetai...

both used together cover scars/imperfections well together. and look very light and non oily. I have oily skin too with some pimples and scars and these products work great!

hope I helped :)

Answer 7

Answer 8

go to your MAC store or counter and get select cover up concealer, it is fanatastic  it covered all my acne and scars it looked natural. Also use MAC's select SPF 15 foundation it is great and gives a natural look then use MAC press powder to set it but you must buy a primer so that your makeup will appy evenly control oil and make your face makeup last. so try MAC's prep + prime face.
