IS MAKEUP BAD FOR ACNE?

people say it is, but who really knows?IS MAKEUP BAD FOR ACNE?
Hypoallergic cosmetics do not affect acne, so you can try that. Also, try asking the beauty expert in the cosmetics counter if that particular product you have chosen is bad for acne before buying it.IS MAKEUP BAD FOR ACNE?
it can be, to some extent. i mean if you cake on loads of foundation and blusher and everything, then you are blocking up your pores even more and it certainly wont help.





but acne is different to just a few spots. spots are caused by blocked pores, caused by leaving make up on for a long time, overnight and not cleansing etc. however, acne is caused by a high level of testosterone (yes really! females do have this - inc. me!) wich causes a waxy layer on the skin which causes the spots. to get rid of this, you can get lotions from your doctor, or you can just pay a little extra for the really good skin stuff like dermalogica.





i also know, suffering myself, that you really dont want to go without make up! i would never leave the house without some foundation on, and the patterns that my skin goes through, i dont think it affects my skin.





my advice would be to just use make up in moderation, take off when you come home for the day, and cleanse well with a decent facewash. and ALWAYS take make up off at night!





good luck!

not really,I use mineral make up and I very seldom get zits on my face, use the make up products that suits you, you might gone through a tough period trying and testing products that suit you but is definitely a process for those who love make up.


once you found products suitable for your skin, makeup not only can improve your complexion but also wont lead your skin to acne prone skin.


my skin has improve since i use mineral products.
Most foundations, no matter what are in them, is bad for your skin and can cause acne. Its not because of the makeup though, its because you have to really clean your face good at night or you wont get all your foundation off your face even if you think it is. Mineral makeup is going to be the best for acne.
yes make-up is generally bad for acne but if ur desperate to cover up, i've found a useful product called nude by nature. its mineral make-up, contains no skin irritants especially bismuth and feels so light on ur face. and the best part???? it actually helps treat acne while you wear it. just don't wear it to bed just in case!!!
That's what mineral make up is for, it doesn't have heaps of chemicals so it doesn't irritate sensitive skin. I use the Maybelline mineral powder and i like it! (although I don't have acne, just really sensitive skin)


I think the main things is not to get foundation that creates more oil or clogs pores.
Some make up is bad for acne, some of them have harmful chemicals in them that causes pimples. I suggest you use a limited amount so that acne won't break out.
some make up is bad but if you invest in make up which is good for sensitive skin and is oil free and a good cleanser to remove it later on it should be ok.
