For my acne prone peeps, I suggested coming up with a Halloween costume that doesn't require face makeup. Of coarse certain mineral makeups are o.k., but I'm talking about Zombie, Witch and Vampire type makeup. Equally hazardous is hairspray, spray paint for hair, and face lacquers to seal makeup. You can bet on a zit that these products have many pore clogging ingredients in them!!!
Stick with mineral makeups (Mineral Mines, Bare Minerals, Young Blood, Color Science, Jane Iredale), which have a range of colors from pale to dark. Come up with a costume that allows you to dress up your eyes and lips instead of your whole face. You can use crayon liners on your eyes, but if you're oily, the oils in the liner may migrate down your face carrying other pore clogging ingredients with it, and poof... zits in 1 to 90 days!!!
A good alternative is mineral eyeshadow. Available in black too! Get yourself a little eyebrow brush, dip it in water, then into your shadow, and apply to eyes or lips. This is called "foiling." It makes a very defined line, and won't clog your pores!
If you Halloween enthusists insist on using nasty, pore clogging products for the sake of scaring away the dead, come see me the day after for an acne treatment to help prevent any up coming break outs.
916 wishes you a Happy Halloween!!!
