Products used:
makeup sponge & water
Revlon Colorstay foundation (I use buff in the oily/combo formulation)
mineral foundation (I use Bare Minerals in fair)
finishing powder( I use Bare Minerals mineral veil)
powdered spf if I'm going to be outside(I use Bare Minerals spf 30)


This is a much better way to apply if you need to cover scaring, acne, discoloration, hyperpigmentation, etc.

  • does it look cakey when youre finished??

  • @chhaachaa No, not if you get thin enough layers. It might look a bit cakey the first few times you try it just because you'll probably use more than you need at first, but after that you'll quickly get the hang of it.

  • I'd like to know what product you use to remove your makeup because Revlon Colorstay is very hard to remove with normal makeup removers :/

  • @lyllith69 I follow the oil cleansing method and use olive oil. I have a video up on it if you're interested.

  • This is one of the best tutorials i've seen for acne skin. My daughter will be too excited. Thanks so much. But can I ask why would you use a colorstay concealar?

  • @kareemtiheed I tried it but didn't like it. I had tried many concealers at this point and just couldn't find something that worked as well as using the foundation on a small brush. This was 2 years ago though, and I can recommend the Maybelline SuperStay concealer now. It's super pigmented, dries to a smudge proof finish and won't budge.

  • Have you tried retin-A or tazorac for the scarring? I started using it for a few years and I love it! I really like your videos :)

  • you have the most perfect nose!! love your tips, btw!

  • Don't use a milky moisturizer if you can't - use a 'water gel'. This is a water based moisturiser which will hydrate your skin but with much less oil. depending on personal needs, you can choose one that is more watery or less, but moisturizing is ESSENTIAL and it is a complete beauty sin to go without it. Your face becomes oily because you don't have enough oil in the first place, so moisturizing does work, trust me.

  • it good coverage if you use the revlon colorstay with spf i am carmel oily and it not thick whatso ever

  • Wow ..great vid. I just bought this foundation and the aqua mineral powder from revlon .. N I love it n I do the same exact things u do to cover up acne but I still find useful other things like sunsreen n by the way ur pretty

  • YOU'RE FREAKING GORGEOUS!

  • This helped me (:

  • Thanks for sharing your story. I can relate, because I suffered with acne as a teen. It was horrible. In the end, I found an effective acne treatment product that worked great for me and I tried them all.

    What I recommend to others now is The NeoStrata Oily/Acne Prone Protocol. This product features several clinically-proven ingredients to target oily, problematic skin, resulting in smoother, and clearer skin.

  • You did an awesome job! I have moderate scarring on my cheeks and I picked this foundation up today. Great vid :-)
