Can Makeup Cause Acne On Non-acne Prone Skin

Does makeup cause acne?

Yes, makeup can cause acne. But, only if you don't your face before you apply makeup. Here's how to keep acne away while wearing makeup:

1. Every morning, wash your face with oil free face wash (non-oil free face wash + makeup= no good)

2. Then, wash the face wash off with cold water (this closes the pours so that no makeup can clog them because this will create acne).
3. Apply your makeup ( if you use foundation, make sure it's oil free.)

Can wearing makeup cause pimples?

It can, but it doesn't have to!
People make the same mistakes that lead to pimples, such as not washing their makeup brushes and not taking their makeup off at night. If you do that then yes, that would probably give you pimples.
But if you are really hygenic about it, using clean brushes or sponges, using a good quality and not overly-oily foundation and making sure you take it off really well at night, then it should cause you no problems at all. Just make sure you have a good cleansing routine - that really is the key!
There's also this really great makeup you might be interested in - it's mineral makeup made up of natural ingredients. It's really gentle on your skin and doesn't clog pores at all, so that might be something to look in to!

Kat Von D Makeup + acne prone skin?

I definitely recommend it :) I tried their Tattoo concealer and it covers amazing i think you should buy the concealer and use it on your acne problem areas and then use a good powder over all that. If you want a brightened up pretty natural face i say use a concealer a shade lighter then your regular tone and pat it on your under eyes in a V shape and then apply that on your chin and bridge of your nose and blend it it and apply it on your dark spots it will brighten your face up.

Oily African American acne prone skin care?

I have oily skin and I tend to get blackheads. Then I get the acne scars when its all over. I CAN NOT find a product that will work for me. Either I get very very dried out or it just cleans the first layer of skin but doesn't get down deep. What are some products i have try??

Does make up foundation cause acne?

look for products that are oil-free and non-pore clogging. these products are specially formulated so that they will not aggravate or cause acne. however, keep in mind each person is different, therefore something that trigger acne for you might not trigger acne for one of your friends.

some good drugstore foundations include revlon, physician's formula and almay. neutrogena is also better for your skin. hope this helps!

oh and i forgot to add physicians formula makes a foundation powder that's called mineral wear. it's all natural ingredients so it's good for your skin and is specifically made for acne prone skin.

Giorgio armani foundation? is this acne prone?

Sometimes even if makeup claims that it is non-oily (best for acne prone skin), an individual's skin type plays a huge factor. What works for one might not work for another. Unfortunately, I found that when it comes to foundation there is really no predicting how it will work unless you try it out yourself.

Will wearing foundation cause me to get acne?

Remember 1 thing: MAKEUP DOESNT CAUSE ACNE! The makeup can get clogged in your pores and is like a new house for Bacteria to grow and infect causing pimples, white heads, blackheads, etc

Acne mainly comes from 2 sources: Hormones and Bacteria

Now Access the situation! What is your skin type? What products are you using to clear your skin? How long have you been using that makeup? do you use your hands or a brush for application? Whats your diet like?

Sometimes its not the foundation or makeup causing the acne, but its yourself and your hygiene habits!
But always date your foundation! It should be thrown out after a year of use (if it lasts that long) to prevent bacteria from growing too much!

Are your hands/brush CLEAN like your face??? Always wash your hands before applying makeup so that bacteria doesnt transfer from your hands/brush to your foundation and foundation bottle to your skin!

And do not apply makeup directly after cleansing! Your pores will be more vulnerable to the makeup clogging them!

Instead wait about 10 minutes after you wash and moisturize your face, get dressed or eat breakfast to pass the time, THEN apply a PRIMER under your makeup. Primers work by acting as a barrier to prevent makeup from getting in the pores. Dont worry, primers dont clog your pores, the molecules are too big to fit in them and it washes away easy.

Try a concealer instead of full foundation. Concealers are meant and formulated for covering up imperfections like acne, foundation just acts as a tone evener. Look for one thats medicated specifically for acne. Almay has GREAT products for acne that include acne serums, a little pricey, but worth every cent!

Also, try tea tree oil or green tea after you cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize your face at night. Both are great for clearing acne, but the smell of the tea tree oil is a little harsh so you might want to dilute it in some Extra virgin Olive Oil
