Makeover Your Acne

This entry was written on Apr 30, 2009 by our Holistic Medicine Guru Marina Hanes

When your acne flares up, it always seems to happen when you have a social event to go to. Those red bumps or patchy, dry skin can make you feel less confident…you might even feel like staying at home. However, natural makeup made from minerals can improve your skin and make your acne less visible.
I’ve been using Bare Escentuals for years, and the powder formula is easy to apply, even when you have large areas to cover up. Plus, it doesn’t look cakey and it allows your skin to breath unlike those liquid based products that contain harmful chemicals. There are a variety of natural makeup brands (Burt's Bees, Kiss My Face, etc.) to choose from, and it’s worth trying if you experience irritation or more acne with your current makeup.
