So I woke up with 2 huge cystic pimples, one on my cheek one on my neck. I remember reading a thread where Ms.Jacqueline explained how to cover a pimple. Basically avoiding too many layers and use a base on the pimple so the concealer has something to attach to. I tried it out.
1. I first washed my face with Nuetragena Redness relief cream cleanser and applied My argan oil as usual.
w
2. Applied Covergirl Outlast Stay Luminous foundation with my beauty sponge, avoiding the pimples.
3. Applied Almay Clear Completion Treatment gel to the pimples.
4. Used a small lip brush and spot concealed using Hardcandy Glamoflauge Heavy Duty Concealer. Blending the concealer with the foundation around the zit.
5. Applied some Rimmel Stay Matte powder on top of the zit, using a small powder puff. making sure not to swipe, but to pat.
6. I applied the rest of my makeup, avoiding shimmery bronzer /blush/highlighter on top of the pimples.
What do you think? I love it, doesn't look cakey and it's not slipping off.

I think she might be asking about the hard candy glamoflauge heavy duty concealer? What color do you use if you don't mind my asking? : )

Whoa! Doesn't even look raised, either. I might have to look into that concealer for my scarring.
