So I used to fight with Acne all the time, but it had improved so much over the last few years. Now all of the sudden I can't wear any foundation without it causing me to break out. I have tried different brands, tried using less, I have tried everything. I have never had this problem until just recently I don't know what to do?

Have you tried mineral powder foundation.

It might be certain ingredients that trigger the breakouts. Talc and Bismuth Oxychloride are often big offenders but there are others as well. I found that I can't use foundations with natural oils (jojoba, argan, etc.) in them. I don't really know why since I love oils for skincare, but they just don't play well with my skin when they are used in foundations.

What foundations have you tried that break you out?

Have you tried using a silicone based primer to create a barrier between your skin and foundation?
