I love Sheer Cover! I just stared using that and I don't need a foundation now.

Your foundation needs to match your skin tone so when applying foundation it is not seen. maybe you have the wrong foundation colour. try the foundation on your jawline on a clean face and in a good light. if the foundation disappears it is your true colour. Also blend with a sponge. Use an oil free foundation.

SO THEN MIX IT WIT FACE LOTION AND APPLY IT THE WAY U WUUD NORMALLY!

You should be using a natrual mineral foundation from Loreal, Bareminerals or Sheercover. Any foundation that is not pure and natrual will only make your acne worse. In the meantime, a good regime of cleansing/exfoliating/moisturizing/sunscreen will help your complexion look smoother and softer, and also help clear up acne. After cleaning and moisturizing your face, apply some natrual concealer that matches your skin tone to your problem areas sparingly and blend the edges of the makeup so it isn't obvious. Then lightly apply a small amount of the mineral foundation with the special brushes generally provided until the acne isn't as obvious. Very heavy applications of makeup will only make your skin look worse.

Moisturizer helps, of course, specially if you had a break-out that is healing; the foundation will then go smooth on, when you cover it. You can apply to only dry areas of your face if you feel greasy after a short time OR if a liquid foundation is enough, since it's liquid, then ok. But try to moisturize some other time of the day though. You need to specify your foundation type. So if it's liquid, & oil-free (non-comedogenic), which you should choose since you suffer blackheads, it should cover well & then set it with powder. No, not too much makeup. You'll apply it only once a day or twice at most & it'll stay, as powder sets the makeup & absorbs the skin oil. Liquid makeup is the liquid foundation, by the way. There is the water based kind which is more like waterproof, which is amazing for oily skin & for the summer as the skin sweats. So that it's sweat proof too. Creamy foundation is heavier, a mix of liquid & powder at once, to disregard you from using powder. But using powder still afterwards is ok. But if you'll use a powder blush, then you won't need the other. Applying this kind of foundation is by wetting the sponge as it's too heavy. There are green, blue, & purple concealers which colors are strong, to cover the strong redness of a pimple or a spot. You then apply the normal yellow one over, to blend with the complexion's tone. Hope that was helpful ;).

If you have skin problems, then I would recommend sticking with a liquid foundation, something oil free or aniblemish. Let it dry and then dust with powder.
