hey babe- don't be ashamed :( i've seen way worse acne! first of all, make sure you wash your face both morning and night. when you are in the shower, wash your hair BEFORE you wash your face. have you tried using an acne clearing cream?
and as far as a full coverage foundation, i love revlon colorstay for oily skin.
i have a video w/ my skincare routine if you want to watch!!

-wash your face with an oil-free cleanser every morning & every night (Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit is amazing)
-use Clearasil Rapid Action Pads once a day (harsh, but they work)
-avoid touching your face
-pull your hair back more often (oil from your hair can get on your face)
-DRINK MORE WATER! it helps clear up skin!
-wash your pillowcases (trust me)
also, if you are willing to splurge on an expensive treatment, maybe try that?
hoped this helped, and you have NOTHING to be ashamed of!

I had problems with acne for years! The only thing that really cleared everything up was Proactiv. I tried everything before that, over the counter and prescription. Within a week or two, I saw a huge difference! I would give that a go. As far as concealing everything goes, Bare Minerals foundation covers up everything, especially the redness acne can cause. Michael Todd Long Lasting cream shadow in Nude also does a good job if you have a fairly pale-medium complexion.

Oxy Spot Treatment will clear you up in a week! No lie it is amazing. It dries your skin out like no other though so be sure to moisturize but I was breaking out around my cheek and it's been two days and my breakouts are completely gone. Also, I use the I-Skin Pore Perfecting System and it just buffs your skin and makes it baby soft :) It's like the Clarisonic but only $30. Any type of "buffer" will help loosen up the dirt and oils trapped in your pores. Use a gentle face wash with that, such as Simple or Cetaphil. I hope I helped:) Oh and for makeup, Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation is the best thing on this planet. It literately hides every imperfection on my face. You can get it at sephora its like $40 but you can ask for a sample of it before you actually purchase it!

I agree with Megan that I have seen worse but of course when it is your own skin we always think the worse. The last couple of years I started having issues with my skin and I had tried some of everything in order to clear it up. I went old school and gave Noxzema products a try and I notice that my face started clearing up. Also I use the E.L.F. zip zapper for a $1.00 and it heals my pimples up really quick.
