Looking for a new foundation for skin prone to clogged pores?

i am and have been using clinique dewy smooth foundation for about 2 years now. it clogs my pores and breaks me out.. but ive tried switching to other foundations but nothing seems to look as good as this... im looking for a foundation that looks natural and doesnt bring out my dry patches. i really just need it to cover up my mild acne on my cheeks. until it will clear up and i can just stick with a tinted moisturizer. u was thinking about mineral foundation but i fear i wont use it correctly and it will bring out the dry patches on my skin and just wont look natural... any ideas?

Bare Minerals WON'T cover acne, I have acne and I use MAC, you can't go wrong with MAC. Their photo-finish is nice, or just explain your problem to the MAC girl at the counter and she'll help you choose one. Also, if you have acne do not exfoliate to much, you'll destroy the top layer of skin and the skin will produce more sebum and dry flaky patches to compensate, I know this sounds strange because you'd think it would be the other way around but if you have dry skin exfoliate more, oily skin with acne exfoliate less. If your getting dry patches it usually means your putting to many products on your skin. Most important thing with open pores is not to layer make up on and congest the skin. Also MAC do tinted foundations/moisturizers. I found Bare Minerals was hopeless on oily skin and sat in the pores and slid off the rest of the face. Hope this helps, Rhianna x
Reply:Get a mineral powder foundation. BareMinerals is still the best. It won't clog pores, looks very natural, and has a natural SPF. And weekly exfoliation with a gentle scrub should get rid of those dry patches.
Reply:The best way to look natural - is actually to be natural!





Try to avoid using foundation - just use a tinted moisturiser!





You are never going to really cover acne, so don't bother.
Reply:You should check out the foundations they have at Proactiv. Not only will it give a fresh look to your skin, but they are medicated! So, it will help in the healing process of your acne. Seriously, it's like a two for one deal. :)
