Not buildable
Too dark just made my oily skin look like tan on my face. Doesn't cover well.

Every Highschool Girl's Daily Routine
Like a poster below, I also began wearing Neutrogena SkinClearing Foundation in my sophomore year. It is incredibly light! I literally got such positive compliments on my complexion that I felt compelled to admit I was wearing foundation. They did not believe I was wearing foundation! Honestly, though, I can't really tell if it is clearing my skin from acne, but it covers well and I do not believe it is causing any MORE breakouts. One negative against it: it runs dark. I am a tan to olive skinned caucasian and I where the LIGHTEST shade (number 10 - ivory). I had a friend, who has extremely fair skin, for whom the lightest shade foundation in this line and brand did not match at all. So, to conclude, I think this foundation is excellent and highly recommended for high school girl's as a light and natural coverage, however, I do not recommend it for those who are extremely fair skinned. Good luck!

Great make up for acne skin
great product for acne skin if you follow up with other Neutrogena products it works better like with the powder, concealer shine free primer , but down side its don't have much coverage and rubs off easy

Didn't clear anything but good coverage
I've been using this foundation for about a year and I honestly don't remember if it ever broke me out. The thing is I remember after using it for the first time it just felt so much "lighter" than my previous foundation which was basically caked onto my face. I use A VERY THIN LAYER so maybe thats why it never broke me out.. Because of this I usually don't have to buy it too often, but it is pricy... SO everyone who said it broke them out maybe you were just using too much?

Neutrogena without a doubt
If I do use makeup I use Neutrogena Skin Clearing. It doesn't hide in a thick matter, but it does hide well. Wash your hands before using it, and only apply on pimples rather than ALL over the face. It doesn't clog my pores and I've noticed it dries out the pimple rather quickly. I do not leave it on for more than a couple of hours, and can honestly say it doesn't make me break out after using it. Which I have had other makeup do.

Long term changed my mind
I used this foundation my sophomore year and loved it.. I really felt like it was taking care of my acne. My acne came back, so I purchased it again, first thing I noticed was that I was slowly creating more acne with this.. I stopped using it, and BAAAM, my forehead and chin got cleared. I have to say though, I loved the coverage it gave because it looked sooooo natural! Especially for me, since I have so much redness on my cheeks and chin. I can't be sure what was breaking me out, but my skin definitely improved AFTER I stopped using this.

Compared other reviews
So I read all of these reviews that others posted saying don't waist your money and it sucks but honestly you're just going to have to try it yourself I started using it my freshman year in highschool and I am now a sophomore in college, I've tried tons of different foundations because I'm a makeup junkie but I always go back to this one. It matches my skin by far the best, it helps my skin, and it's a great natural look. Now on the other reviews saying oh it comes off thoughout the day and oh it didn't work, I wonder if you even read the directions?? Because it says right on the bottle to cleanse your skin, cover the area, 1-3 times a day, and if using prescribed achne products to ask your doctor. Also I don't find it oily because it also says SHAKE WELL before every use. Common ladies read your labels. I absolutely LOVE this makeup and I have recommended it to others such as friends and family and they love it. I work at Ulta Beauty and we don't carry it but I love it more than even the $35 makeup so stop saying it's expensive when it's like $12 (;

Don't waste your money!
This stuff was terrible! It made my entire face break out. Do not use this is you have acne prone/oily skin. It made my face feel like all of my pores were clogged. It also was very watery and had had terrible coverage. Do not waste your money on this product.
