I Found the Best Acne Cover-Up

One of the worst comments that you hear is, 'is that a pimple?' I mean if it clearly is a pimple - why bring it to everyone's attention! All through high-school I faced a massive acne problem and was tired of my mother's constant statements like 'It's just hormonal changes your body is going through.' I went to see many skin specialists and even acne specialists but whatever soaps, ointments, creams and medicines they prescribed - didn't seem to work.

My prom night was coming up and unlike other girls who were super excited, I was dreading the event. I did not want to go in a gorgeous dress with a face that said otherwise. I tried using different kinds of make up for acne cover up but it just ended up looking even worse as it gave my skin a very artificial caked on look and gave an artificial shade to my originally fair skin. Not wanting others to see my original skin, I used such acne cover up products anyway, but honestly I think they made my acne worse.

One day shopping with my friends I hit the jackpot - I found air brush foundation. It provides an almost natural coverage to my skin without changing my skin tone and enhances make up. The most important thing is that it improves my skin texture and gives it a very smooth feel and look to it. I bought this acne cover up makeup kit instantly and was very hopeful about the results.

It was even better than I had expected. With my air brush foundation giving the perfect acne cover up, for the first time I could experiment with different kinds of make-up which was a refreshing change because before that I could never take the risk of thinking out of the box when it came to using colors on my skin. The prom day had arrived and I used the acne cover up foundation with smoky black eye make up to match my little black dress, and just a touch of blush for color. It was a complete transformation! My friends couldn't believe it and very honestly neither could I. I looked vibrant and more importantly I felt so alive. It was a much-awaited change and I felt that this was the break I had always been looking for - the perfect acne cover up.

The prom night was a huge success and I attracted plenty of attention from everyone for the first time ever. And best of all, a boy I 've had a crush on for ages finally noticed me and he even asked me out! Air brush acne cover up makeup has given a huge boost to my self esteem which has opened me up to try out different colors, different kinds of accessories and looks. It is amazing how just an acne cover up can change your entire personality. It has given me the confidence to carry myself with my chin held high. My mother was very happy too since she used to feel quite helpless for not being able to give me the courage I needed to feel comfortable with my looks. I believe this acne cover up has rather revealed the fun and confident side of me that I didn't know even existed and for the first time I am excited about the future - and my date with Kevin!
