I don't get acne very often but once in awhile i get one and i wanted to get something to touch up the spot so it is unnoticealbe. However when i tried to do this i think i get a cyst which is the big ones with no puss and last a long time because my pore gets clogged. So now whenever i get a zit that is worth doing something about like dabbing it with some dermablend to remove color im too scared to since i could just get screwed over a longer period of time instead of wait for it to be gone but red for 1-2 days. I don't get cysts very often and the only times i recall having them in the last year which was like 2-3 i remember it was same spot i put dermablend on. Is there any type of make up that will reduce redness look that for sure doesn't clog pores?

Revlon Colorstay caused absolutely no problems for me. It's the one makeup that I was very sure wasn't contributing at all (ie absolutely no increases in any acne spot size ever during the day when I've worn it).

Hey hey! Just to let you know, Dermablend is HORRIBLE for those with active acne as it contains ingredients such as Mineral Oil, Petroleum, and a lot of wax. Be careful when using this stuff, its gross!
