Studio fix powder by mac for acne skin skin#
I am a fan of powder-based makeup as my skin is oily and powders keep it shine-free for relatively longer amount of time. They let the skin breathe and don’t settle in the pores. Sometimes when I apply water-proof eye-liner or long-stay lipstick that does not get removed by Bioderma, then I use Lakme make-up remover (purchased during pre-acne-mantra-days), only for those parts.Īll the products used are very light and don’t feel heavy on the skin. None of the make-up that I usually use is waterproof so it comes off easily with Bioderma H2O. The most important part is to remove your make-up completely once you come back. Then I do my usual eye and lip makeup which is only kajal/liner and tinted lip gloss. For touch-ups on the move MAC is great and easier to carry. It is a translucent powder which can be used for touch-ups too. Mineral Veil by Bare Escentuals is a nice product to set the makeup and mattify the face. Once I am done, I just swirl the empty brush all over my face to blend everything. Anyways I use this as a bronzer occasionally for minor contouring / blush. I have one darker shade of my BE foundation powder too which I had bought when I was tanned after vacationing (so got a wrong color match). I apply just a hint of blush on my cheeks – otherwise the face looks really flat.

If I notice any scar peeking out, I just dab a little bit of powder on it with my fingers. I swirl the brush in the product and put it on my face in small circular motions (you can see various mineral powder makeup tutorials on Youtube to get this right). I use MAC for light/medium coverage and BE for complete coverage and longer staying power.

Studio fix powder by mac for acne skin plus#
I use a small fluffy powder brush to either apply MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation or Bare Escentuals Matte Foundation. Do ensure that the concealer you buy is an exact match otherwise your acne will shine out from under your makeup. If you see any edges then dab and blend with your fingers. You can place the concealer in your pitted scars with the brush – which is difficult to do with your fingers. I also apply some concealer under the eyes and the eye lids if needed.Īpplying concealer with a brush is easier and it blends better. This really helps in diminishing its appearance. If I have any active pimple, I also put concealer at the place where it casts a shadow right below. The mild ones will get covered with the foundation. I use a concealer brush to dab concealer only on the prominent/dark scars. During the day, I apply primer after the sunscreen. Primer is essential if you want longer lasting and complete coverage with a powder product. Primer really holds the powder foundations well and keeps them stay longer on your skin. Once this sets, I apply another teeny drop of primer on the areas where I have pitted scars.

This is what I do: Step 1: Prep and Primeĭuring the day I apply sunscreen all over the face and neck and during the night, I apply a few drops of primer. Some of them have mildly comedogenic ingredients that don’t cause any breakouts for me. Bioderma Sebium H2O for removing makeupĪll the products that I use have no highly comedogenic ingredient as per Skingredients analysis. Fluffy powder brush and concealer brush – from Sephoraġ0.
