Almost 6 years ago when I turned 30 my face has decided to turn against me. I have had continuous adult acne on my forehead, chin, cheeks and there is never a day when it is completely clear. After MUCH trial and error and a monetary fortune later I have tried every mineral makeup, facial wash etc out there. Unfortunately my face just does much better when I don't put anything on it including foundation. However, I still get acne flare ups and I have acne scars and dark spots. This is the only concealer I have found that actually works to cover up my imperfections and it blends easily into my skin and I don't have to wear any other make up. I wish I could have smooth, glowing skin and be able to wear any make up foundation on the market but I just can't and it is the only way I can keep my acne under control. I really like this concealer and I am so glad I purchased it because I have tried EVERYTHING!

When I turned 30, six years ago I started getting adult acne. It has been a roller coaster ever since. I would classify it has mild most of the time then moderate when my time of the month approaches. I have spent a FORTUNE trying to get rid of the acne once and for all but nothing is stopping it for good. So I decided to go another path. I searched high and low for the best mineral makeup to try and cover it. I have tried everything including Bare Minerals, Silk Minerals, Everyday Minerals and I have tried every foundation brush out there. I happen to stumble across an article that listed the best mineral foundations and Merle Norman was #1. I was skeptical but I found a Merle Norman store and I purchased the foundation. I found the price to be very reasonable considering the amount of foundation you receive. I have been using it for 3 weeks now and it does not seem to be causing additional breakouts. If I build the coverage it covers my active acne and acne scars. Overall my face glows after I put this on and I am very happy with this product. It doesn't feel heavy and it stays overall throughout the long day. I think this foundation is great and I am very happy I purchased it.
