When you have acne you need a foundation with heavy coverage that will stay on oily skin and will not cause more acne.

A liquid foundation will provide high coverage. If you want more coverage than that, set your liquid foundation in place with a layer of a powder foundation. Powder foundation alone will not provide enough coverage, and foundations that provide higher coverage are known to clog pores.

Look for products designed for oily skin. Other products tend to crease or slide on oily skin, but these will be designed to stay put on your skin. There are foundations that include acne-fighting ingredients, these can be helpful, but if you have sensitive skin you probably want as few active ingredients as possible in the make-up.

Make sure the make-up says non-comedogenic. This means that it will not clog your pores and create new acne.

When living in Australia what is the best recommended oil-free or non-comeogenic cover-up foundation for moderate acne?

Hi, I use Neutrogena's skin Clearing Clean tint foundation. It is a blemish treatment that also gives you coverage, and it's oil-free. Anything with salicylic acid in it will help your acne and this product contains that ingredient. Answer Maybeline pure foundation. It doesnt exactly "treat" acne but its 50% water and oil free. It doesnt make me break out. If you want someting that treats acne you best go for a cream with benzoyl peroxide. do not use if you have sensitive skin, it will dry your skin out completly.

What is the best foundation for acne skin i went out for shopping and someone told me that gorgio Armanis foundation is the best in the market has anyone used it and how were the results?

Sure its a good foundation, but it costs more than 71 dollar. for that money you have a good one from Clinique. You want a brand that is non-comedogenic--not oily and which will not clog your pores. Although, it may not be the best for your skin and I wouldn't recommend using it all the time, Cover Girl aqua smooth make up is great for covering up acne and blemishes. I believe it is silicone based so it smooths over skin very easily and has great coverage. It costs about $8.
