What make-up (foundation) is least likely to cause skin break out?

Lately I've tried BareMinerals, NARS, Chanel, et al. and my skin has broken out. I'm desperate to try anything -- doesn't matter what store sells it, how expensive or cheap. Thanks for ideas!What make-up (foundation) is least likely to cause skin break out?
At the risk of sounding like a commerial. . .try neutrogena foundation oil-free, it has a patent....pending formula clears up blemishes and helps prevent future breakouts.


Helps clear and minimize the appearance of pores.


Time released multi-vitamin complex helps maintain skin's healthy look.


Hypoallergenic - Non-acnegenic - Dermatologist developed - Fragrance free





Indications:


For the management of acne.





I use it and it has worked great! I strongly recommend!What make-up (foundation) is least likely to cause skin break out?
brands arent necessary. what you need to look for are ingredients. water based foundation are least likely to cause break outs.
an oil-free foundation would work


all make-up clogs up your pores so there is no least likely solution


stick to one which is medicated with benzoyl peroxide or saliyic acid
instead of using foundation...


if your skin is good..let it go natural.


since you want a good foundation..try dior...satin finish..it doesn't have spf..and i suspect that is what is irritating your skin.
Maybelline Pure is what you want. It's a liquid foundation that's made with 50% water--completely oil-free, so it won't clog up pores and break out your skin. This foundation looks completely flawless and never cakes. Because it's 50% water, it doesn't dry out skin. It never looks too obvious, because it has sheer-to-medium coverage.





For reference, I have combination skin-- oily nose and forehead, but dry cheeks, and redness above my jawline.





These foundations are ranged somewhere between $4-$10 bucks and are readily available at your nearby drugstore/target/walmart!





I have a fair, warm complexion with yellow undertones. I use Light 02 and it's a perfect match for me! If you're cool-toned, I suggest odd numbers like Light 01 or 03.





If you tend to look orange, that means either 1) the foundation color sucks, or 2) you picked a shade that was too dark for you, or 3) you're cool-toned and picked a warm shade. To check if you're cool-toned or warm-toned, check out the color of your veins on the inside of your wrists. If they're more blue than green, you're cool-toned. If they're more green than blue, you're warm-toned.





I got my Maybelline Pure liquid foundation for $3.99 on sale! It's a blue tube with a gray screw-on cap.





Many low-end brands are just as good as, and even better than, high-end brands, in my opinion.
Try Clinique.





I have acne, and though it does nothing to help me, it doesn't create more of a problem. Also...their skin care line is fabulous for break-outs.
It's completely trial and error. Everyone's skin is different.
Do you need to use a liquid foundation?


Unless you have some kind of crazy allergy, what makes people break out from make-up is the oil in liquid foundation and the talc in the powder foundations.


It's very easy now to find powder foundations (pressed powder, not liquid to powder!) that are talc free. I like physicians formula and you can get it right from CVS for like $15.00


Also, make sure you use a really great face cleanser before bed. It's very important that you wash off not only your make up but the dirt and oil that's accumulated on your face during the day. Neutrogena Clear Pore Cleanser/Mask is awesome.


And be sure to use a light moisturizer in the morning. If your skin gets too dry it'll flake and actually cause clogged pores, but if you use too heavy of a moisturizer you'll get too oily and clog pores that way.





If none of this seems to be your problem, I'd think about going to see a dermatologest to see if you have a skin allergy. At least from there you can get a grip on what's going on with your face and he/she will be able to suggest make ups or creams for you.





goodluck!
try avon... they guarantee their product or your money back!
