Hi guys, I'm new its nice to be apart of this site- it looks amazing! But I need some advice..
I recently stopped taking birth control, thus my skin has become more 'pimple prone' than before when I was taking it. It's awful!
What are the best foundations/cc/bb cream for pimple prone skin?
Help me so I can get a foundation that won't attribute to my annoying new coming pimples!

You need to use a foundation that is noncomedogenic. I've had good luck with Lancôme Teinte Idole, Chanel perfection Lumiere, Benefit Big Easy and Bare minerals. You might want to look for oil free as well.

If you're willing to spend the extra $$ then I recommend the Hourglass Immaculate Liquid-Powder foundation. I had some really bad acne problems last year and that foundation actually helped clear them up thanks to the cashmere kaolinite clay that absorbs excess sebum on your skin. I was skeptical when I was told it would actually help clear my acne, but that claim was no joke, it really did and I loved it.
Also, I currently have the Cover FX Mattifying primer and do not recommend it, even though it says it has anti-acne medication, it's incredibly greasy on my skin and I totally regret buying it.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I currently use clique's liquid even better foundation.
I have no idea if its oil free or not. Does anyone have any suggestions that are more budget friendly?
Aren't there foundations that have ingredients that fight acne too?

I would stick with lighter coverage like a tinted moisturizer or BB Cream until your breakouts start to clear. That's what I did when I had occasional breakouts.. I know we all want to cover it with more product, but your skin will take longer to heal. If you want to invest in a good one.. my favorite is Laura Mercier.

I use maybelline wake me up liquid foundation as I have the same problem. But I find Any liquid foundation is good for spot prone skin, jut avoid matte foundation(I'm not sure of the actual name of it lol) as it just makes pimples more noticeable
