Anybody ever try this powder?
I used to never have acne. Ever. In the last 2 years though, I've been battling constantly with it... so bad at times that I now have scars. I tried every kind of cleanser and then I tried every kind of foundation, and then I tried not using anything. You know what works? Not using anything. It truly is foundation that's doing it. ANY foundation. From MAC to Smashbox to MUFE to drug store brands to Bare Minerals to tinted moisturizers. So far the -only- product I've been able to use is Benefits "hello flawless" powder. I've been using it for 2 months with no breakouts. The only time I got a couple pimples was right before my period, but that always happens with me. The weird thing is, I don't even have oily skin. Actually, my skin tends to be on the dry side. So I'm not sure why it clogs so bad. The issue with the Benefit powder is that, while it's nice for daytime and whatnot, it really doesn't cover as well as I'd like for work or nights out, it also tends to look a little "dull". So, now I'm looking into other powders. For some reason I havent had luck with any type of mineral line. I see that the Philosophy stuff has really good reviews. Any opinions on it? Any other suggestions? I'm trying desperately to find something that will give me coverage and glow without acne. : / Unfortunately I like the "dewy" sort of "just above natural" look... but that seems to be impossible for me to get without breaking out.
stupid face!
