Get a green concealer and apply it underneath your skin tone colored concealer. Than add foundation overall to even out the color.
Go to the local drug store and there will be many cover ups. Match one that is closest to your skin tone. Also to reduce redness try using ice on the pimple.
make up
i've heard toothpaste works great
there is really good medicated ointment called retin-a u should talk to the pharmacist about it first though because it depends on how sensitive ur skin is. there are different percentages get the one that work out better for u. also wash ur face when u wake up and bfr going to bed as well as wash your sheets and pillow covers at least 2 weekly and drink lots and lots of water that should get rid of your acne with some time.it wont get rid of it temporarily it will go away if you continue doing this every day.
hmm I'd try some foundation followed by some cover-up.
First of all, no one has flawless skin. Some people have it better than others, but thats just genes and stuff. Go to www.freewebs .com/reelbeauty11 for skin and beauty tips. I know its for young girls, but it works for anyone!
I know some people who have tried ProActive and it worked, but I also know some others who have tried it and it made it worse :( I know some who have put rubbing alchol on their skin or peroxcide to dry up the pimples. It also kills bacteria :) . Also, try going to a dermotoligist, or ask your regular doctor. Often times the regular doctor, who knows more about your med. history and whatnot can help you more than a dermatologist.
are you a vegetarian? That might have something to do with it. Its worth checking into.
Try dabbing toothpaste or honey on your zits before you go to bed - works wonders.
Overall, remember that beauty counts more on the inside than on the outside, and your true friends will love you for you, and not your skin.
Oh, and try a different kind of foundation, if you wear it. Try to use a kind with lots of water in it. It looks great and doesn't clog pores half as bad. And check your habits - do you prop your chin up a lot with your hands? That might cause the acne as well. Look for the cause, as well as the cure.
