Does Bare Escentuals mineral foundation make acne go away?

I've always used oil free liquid foundation and my acne breakouts were erratic - sometimes good skin, sometimes bad. Does B.E. mineral foundation make acne go away or is it some marketing scam?





What's a better choice:


1. Bare Minerals Foundation spf 15


2. Revlon ColorStay with Clinique's City Block Sunscreen under it?Does Bare Escentuals mineral foundation make acne go away?
Bare Escentuals has a product in it that is supposed to be anti-inflammatory, so it might take away the redness, and using such a dense brush might exfoliate a bit, but honestly, foundation is foundation. It still has the potential to break you out. The only marketing scam which is completely untrue is the part that it's safe to sleep in. Under no circumstances should you sleep in your foundation.


I think the Revlon Color Stay is a really good product, so it really depends on your personal taste. If you've tried MAC's Studio Fix Fluid and liked it, you'd like the Color Stay too. Bare Minerals is definitely worth a try though, but my personal suggestion is to try the Bare Minerals at Sephora, walk around, see how you like it for the day, then another day try out MAC's Studio Fix Fluid. Walk around for the day, see how you like it, then give your own verdict.


(I personally like the Color Stay better because I have dry skin.)


Good luck!Does Bare Escentuals mineral foundation make acne go away?
Omg i just bought Revlon Colorstay today %26amp; ive gotta tell you to buy it! It has to be the best makeup ive had! It does stay on for a long long time. As far as sunscreen ive heard that 15 spf isn't gonna do you much good. Go for 20 or 30 depending on your skin tone.
It doesn't make acne go away for people that are naturally acne prone... if your breakouts are caused by liquid foundation... MAYBE.





Revlon ColorStay is ok... but don't use the mineral one. That one sucks.
