Hello! I'm extremely new to this site (just created my account five minutes ago :D) and was wondering if anyone could tell me what makeup I should buy. I just turned 18, so (hopefully) my acne should start going away as puberty and all that stops, but as of now I still have some scarring, lots of redness, and just acne. I'm not really ashamed of it anymore, it's been far too long, but I'm going to school soon and want an easy routine in the morning that'll last all day, and still provide a little coverage. I realize to cover EVERYTHING I'd need a face full of makeup, but I'm wondering if anyone has a light daily makeup routine they follow? I mainly want to get rid of the redness and oil all over my face-- my acne can be somewhat visible. I've only ever used liquid foundation, but I'm open to all types.
For reference, my skin is extremely sensitive and very oily. I'm also super pale (not fun for finding makeup haha) and at Sephora I did the color IQ and got 1Y01. I have some makeup for that skin tine, MAKEUP FOR EVER, and while it matches, it makes my face RIDICULOUSLY oily. Granted, when I wear it casually I don't use primer because I'm terrible. Anyway, thanks in advance to anyone who responds. My main worry is finding a shade that actually matches, and won't make my look like I sprayed myself with liquid Cheetos.
You should try using a BB cream/tinted moisturiser. It is less heavier than a foundation and would definitely be more skin friendly to you on a daily basis as it is light. It offers light to medium coverage however, it can make oily skin even oiler because it is a moisturiser.. Try looking for a BB cream that combats oil.
