Okay, so the concealer that I use does not cover up my acne very well and I was wondering if I could get some recommendations on something that would make them less noticeable?

I really like all of the cover-girl products, that is a brand, that is not expensive, but is really good quality.

Honey why don't you just get rid of your acne instead of worrying to cover it up..:)

Get rid of it by going to the derm. They are amazing if you stay with them.

If you're concerned about your skin, I'd try looking at foundation that's going to be better for your face as well as going to the derm. Ulta has a really good estheticians pod and they use Dermalogica, which has a great acne line. I'd look into a good toner, moisturizer, and face masks (I love the Mario Bedescue cucumber cleansing lotion, Mario flower mask, Lush mask of Magnaminty, lush grease lightening, and lush cosmetic warrior). If I used that foundation I'd break out too. Try Tarte, bareminerals, or Juice Beauty.

CoverFX is a makeup line made specifically for acne-prone skin. You could check out some of their concealers/foundations. They have different products for different skin types. And honestly, if you aren't taking good care of your skin, no amount of makeup can make it look nice. Try some new products (in moderation) and see what type of products work well for your skin.

My face is clearing up, it just breaks out pretty bad sometimes and I wanted something to cover it up until I could get it cleared up completely :) all of this has been helpful, thank you! I will definitely look into you guys' suggestions next time I go shopping :)

1st, Use a cover-up with a green base first to lessen redness (right on the zit or mark). Then top with reg color concealer and blend.
To reduce acne redness (in general), I highly recommend trying Michael Todd Organics Cranberry Toner and Eileen Mai Cucumber Masque at night. These both can really help reduce the redness/inflammation and appearance of marks overtime. Organic aloe vera gel (formulated without alcohol) can also help reduce acne redness. Earth Science also carries a lot of gentle skin care products ideal for acne-prone skin.
** Stay away from any topical skin products containing alcohol, lemon juice, lime or grapefruit oil (these will only make your acne look redder).**

Yeah like Luna recommended products that reduce redness will help a lot. I use the teatree range from bodyshop nothing has kept the redness down in the skin as well or for as long
