I have tried quite a few products.. but I have found the best skincare products out there are BeautiControl.. and I love there foundations they are all oilfree it doesn't feel like you are wearing any make-up and at but it gives you an awesome coverage.. There are a few different skincare lines that are also great for acne and oily skin.. I have never been happier! www.beautipage.com/paulakleinow
let me know if you have questions :]

I love my Mary Kay so much that I became a consultant. I found a treatment for acne that works with a formula I mixed and matched. My Doctor was so impressed that she told me she wanted me to put it in her news letter. Here is my website. I'm giving all of my Soulcycsters who want to try the formula a 10% discount+tax and shipping. I haven't had any major acne for three weeks now and I love it! www.marykay.com/lizthompson. I got diagnosed in college and my Dr. is putting me on Met and byetta abd Omege 3 fatty acids. I'm nervous but excited! You can contact me through my website. I'm here to help! | |

Kudos to all of you who haven't had any probs with the Bare Minerals. Honestly, they have ruined my face. They contain lots of NASTY things in them that aren't so "natural" as the product claims them to be. Mainly talc and bismuth. Both are known to be cancerous and are NOT good for blemish prone skin - in fact they are known to cause blemishes of the cystic variety.
Read labels when purchasing mineral make up or any make up for that matter. I wish I had read mine instead of just assuming something was great for my skin because it said it was. Bare Escentuals isn't ANY better for your skin than any other make up is.

bareMinerals's list on their website says it does not contain talc. Not sure about bismuth.
All I know is talc makes me break out REALLY bad. I am unable to use it even at close to 40 years old.

I would definitely go for a mineral makeup (as many people have said already). I've never worn makeup before and just bought the Bare Minerals kit a month ago and my skin not only has cleared up a great deal, it also has made it softer and my skin tone is more even. Best of all, you don't have to wash it off at night and it only takes about 10 minutes to put on, mascara and all. If you're in a hurry, you can just throw on some foundation and lip gloss and you'll still look 50 times better than if you hadn't put anything on at all. It works especially well if you have oily skin.

For me, the only thing that doesn't make me break out worse is mineral powders. I would love to find something that had better coverage, though.  | |

My Mood:  Points: 1,393.20 Bank: 0.00 Total Points: 1,393.20 |  What makeup is best if part of my face is dark and part is lighter?
QUESTION: What if my makeup concern is less about breakouts and more about the color of my skin?
I stopped using foundation bc PCOS/IR (or maybe the Pill?) darkened some areas of my face and lightened others. i have NO idea what foundation to buy...its either too dark or ashy in other areas . Does anyone have this prob? Should I go for 2 colors? I want a nice even look. Plus, it doesnt help that the area above my upper lip is always dark! I always look like i have a mustache, even right after I wax. grrr. Would love to cover that up.
