"My skin has been super bad lately (like acne-bad) and to cover it all I've been slapping on tons of foundation, but it just looks like a bad mask. Do you have any tricks or techniques to make it look a little better?\n\n I'm sorry to hear about your skin woes! Before I get to practical advice of how to cover it up, can we please discuss what's been causing your acne? Is it stress? Hormones? Laziness/forgetting to wash your face at night (or after the gym, etc)? I always prescribe a proactive approach of preventing acne so that you don't have to deal with the hassle of covering it up.\n\n In regards to covering it up, first of all, don't pick at your face. Once you pick, the skin gets 100 percent more inflamed and craggy (especially if it gets\u2014ugh\u2014oozy or infected) and no amount of makeup can make it look better. I'd invest in a primer that's appropriate for acne-prone skin. Use it after you wash and treat your face. It'll help create a smoother canvas for makeup. I like the ones from Murad and Philosophy! Good luck and keep me updated on your progress.\n\n For more advice from Eva, visit evachen212.tumblr.com"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
