Pros:

* does not block pores
* easy to apply
* covers red marks well
* being a party boy I tend to fall asleep with my make up on (Naughty I know) but when I do, I dont wake up to a break out.
* Bottle lasts for ages
* many colours to match your tone.

Cons:

*Hard to build on.
* can go orangey if applied to thick.
* If dry skin it can go cakey and flakey

Just make sure you have moisturized before hand, its excellent best make up I have ever bought.

Pros:

covered up acne
didn't break me out
was smooth, even looking
natural?

Cons:

didn't help my acne... at all
i have oily skin yet it was still kinda drying
can be orangey looking

I use this foundation about everyday I like how it's very easy to apply and even looking, but make sure you have the right shade or it can look kind of orange-ish. It didn't help my acne at all and I know other people who have used this and it didn't help their acne either, but it didn't break me out and i felt like I wasn't making my skin totally worse as if I were using some super cakey, full coverage, mac foundation or something. hope this helps overall i liked it but i can probably still find better!

Pros:

Feels nice and light on my skin. Doesn't make me breakout. Lasts ages. Smells decent.

Cons:

Not high coverage but enough for what I need. If you try and put more on to build up coverage makes the colour look odd.

Medium coverage. Took me a couple of tries to get the colour right. I ended up with a shade number 4 but accidentally bought the 5 first time around. Really happy with it so far. Use it with a concealer brush. Makes a huge difference. I have tried a bunch of different cover ups but they either break me out or aren't enough coverage. This one seems to work pretty well.

Pros:

-Good coverage
-Silky texture
-Oil free
-Prevents breakouts

Cons:

-Expensive
-Doesn't moisturize

This product is worth trying if your self conscious about your skin. It covers blemishes well and also prevents breakouts however moisturizer should be applied before application as it can be quite drying.

good but not for drier skin
I bought this from Debenhams a few months ago, I paid under £20 for it which I feel reasonable as I normally pay around this amount for foundation. The MUA matched my skin color really well so it looks very natural which is good & it comes in a variety of colors for every skin tone. The foundation works well to hide & conceal redness of the skin & does hide spots and blemishes well too. I would advise to use a proper skincare routine & not rely solely on this blemish treatment foundation. The only problem I have with this foundation is that its finish is very matte, it dried my skin quite a lot so I feel it is not suited for normal/dry skin. More suited for oily skin! The MUA in the shop recommend I pair it with a highlighter such as benefit high beam but I feel it doesn't make much difference. I still continue to use this product as the benefits outweigh the cons. A good tip is to apply lots of moisturizer when using to relive dryness

Pros:

Helps the acne

Cons:

Orangey

Okay so, I am currently using this and its not bad. I mean it covers up the problems and that's what you want right? Well anyway, I'm very pale and it does give me a little bit of an orange tint. I have been thinking about blending it in with another type of foundation (any brand) that is a little bit lighter and seeing what happens then. I heard that works. OH, and it kinda lasts long. But not too long. After a while it does look flaky.

have repurchased many times
Im not sure if this foundation actually does help your acne in terms of calming breakouts but generally it works really well for me. It goes on well with a beauty blender and has high enough coverage to conceal all my current breakouts as well as any hyper pigmentation I have left over from old spots. I do sometimes get bit oily on my chin throughout the day when wearing this but its nothing that a bit of powder can't fix and it comes in a shade pale enough to match me which is a great bonus as with many foundations I've tried in the past even the palest shade is too dark. I hate spending lots of money on makeup but this is something that i'll happily fork out for, and its not as expensive as other high end brands.

great for acne skin
this make up is a great make up for acne skin also smell great no harsh smell , ONE down side about the product is the size of the bottle for the price you pay ( light to medium coverage ) tip get a good beauty blender to help even the foundation

Good for acne prone skin
This stuff is pricey, but I think it is worth it. While it isn't going to clear up your acne forever, it will not make it worse either. I bought this at least 3 times over and really enjoyed using it, although I did find that I used it up quickly. Good coverage and kept me matte longer than other foundations, although I did find the colour range a bit off. It didn't irritate my skin and definitely helped fight my spots while I was wearing make up.
