Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions™ Liquid Makeup

While you make your way through the makeup counters at Woolies, check out Clinique's Liquid Makeup Foundation. Non-irritating and oil-free, this base helps blend away blemishes and neutralize redness. It also contains salicyclic acid, which is one of the key chemical ingredients used to treat acne. So, you can look great, all the while combating your underlying skin issues with this product. Unlike other foundation, Clinique's anti-blemish version is incredibly light, giving you a natural look. Get yours here.

Max Factor Colour Corrector Stick

Often the best makeup for acne-prone skin is no makeup at all. However, we know that blemishes can seriously affect self-esteem. That's where Max Factor's CC highlighter and sticks come in to save the day. Concealing hyper-pigmentation, dark spots, scarring and dullness around your eyes, at least one of these makeup sticks should be in your handbag at all times. The next time a random spot appears right between your eyes in the middle of the day, you will be aptly prepared to cover it up and carry on. The Colour Corrector Stick for redness is ideal for the job. Get yours here.

Garnier Skin Naturals BB Cream

Even during winter months it's important to keep up your daily sun care routine. But, dare we risk the oily residue on our sensitive skin? Garnier has the solution - a Beauty Balm Cream with UV protection and grapefruit essence to help reduce the size of pores and imperfections. This tinted moisturiser is the perfect balance between bare faced and full on makeup mask. It may not cover your blemishes perfectly, so use in combination with a Colour Correcting Stick or a little matte powder. Available at Clicks stores. Get yours here.
