NBR: best concealer for pimples?

I figure plenty of us are dealing with stupid pregnancy acne and was hoping for some recommendations on a good concealer to cover these bad boys up? I don't normally wear concealer, but I'm sick of seeing these red spots all over my chin and neck. What's your fave concealer for covering up acne, ladies?

Re: NBR: best concealer for pimples?

  • Actually I use the BB cream foundation by CG straight on a pimple but generally I use bare minerals and it covers everything. I have loss of pigment body wide and I always have slapped red cheeks and what not and it covers that and the stupid acne plus it looks more natural and some people don't even notice I'm wearing make up.

    I love NARS concealer and then I use smash box BB all over. 
  • If you're looking for something on the cheaper end, Glamoflauge by Hard Candy is amazing. My sister is a makeup artist and it's what they use to cover tattoos (like for brides on their wedding day who want to conceal - that's how well it works!)

  • I just stay home. 

    Kidding - but feeling depressed about my face today and embarrassed so I can't wait to get to run out of work. I just started using Sonia Kashuk and it is very affordable(got it at Target) and works really well. I am usually a bare minerals girl but since my skin has changed I find her stuff to work better on covering things up.

    This is exactly what I use.  Laura Mercier makes amazing tinted moisturizer and NARS has the best foundation and concealer ever. I actually don't need concealer when I use their blended powder foundation. It's not too heavy, but offers good coverage.

  • I already use Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer so I will look into NARS concealer (looove their blush!).

  • I feel bad for you girls. My face has never looked better. I'm scared for after the baby's born.

    I love the Neutragena stick concealer.

  • I use the cream, but you can't go wrong with NARS, IMO. Everything I have of theirs is awesome.

  • I'm using Tarte right now, and I like it alot. I usually use Clinique.

    I put on my foundation BEFORE concealer, and then I usually just need it under eyes and around my nose. And I use primers.

  • MAC concealer. By far the best I've found. If you live near a MAC PRO store, they sell it in a larger size and call it "full coverage foundation" - it's 4 times the size of the small concealer and only double the price. I literally call the PRO stores and have it shipped to me. Have done this for years now-  ;)

  • Merle Norman. Hands down the best!!!! Waterproof also. If I could....I'd shout it from the roof tops! I can have a mister red one & I swear when I'm done its blended & unseen. Also a huge plus....it last so long for a small tube. I get at least 5 months out of a tube. The tiniest but covers a great deal.
  • I use this with my acne as the bottom liquid is to help with clearing up the acne and reduce the redness/swelling let it dry and put the concealerimage over top. i use to have really bad acne and would use the almay line it helped majorly with my blemishes and clearing me up.
