Has anyone managed to find a contour powder that hasn't caused breakouts? I tend to get a horrible line of blackheads the next day...

I like to use a taupe shade rather than bronze and have tried the following to no avail:

Inglot
Nyx taupe blush
Maybelline
Rimmel
ELF

For foundation the best I've found are MUFE studio finish powder, Lily Lolo, Effaclar and YSL fusion ink.

For powder: Hourglass, MUFE

Blush : just got one from Jane Iredale

The NYX taupe blush contains isopropyl myristate which has a comedogenic rating of 5 out of 5. It's one of the worst things you can put on your face. All of the NYX blushes rate pretty poorly. The other products-- you'll have to be more specific, but I'm guessing you'd have better luck if you check the ingredients for comedogenic rating and potential irritants (bismuth oxychloride is a common offender). Good luck!
