4 Make-Up Bases for the Acne Prone skin
by Cranky Sweetie
You may already know how I am prone to breakouts since I was
a teenager. There are a number of reasons why I do (but that’s another article:
5 Reasons why I think I breakout). Believe me, I’ve been suffering in
and out of break outs and I have discovered some products that help me prevent
the bumps, while I still go out in a fresh and cool make up.
1)
Face Shop Primer
Php 600.00
Ingredients:
This one is my favorite. I just found a
small bottle owned by my sister and I did manage to make it my own (but soon I
admitted to her that I’ll buy an exchange.) Primers are supposed to be airy and
light on the face and this did it. It is clear and putting on your face powder
just glides on your skin. It can only be bought in Face Shop stores and usually
out of stock. So make sure you always buy one in advance.

Skin Perfect Hydro Defense Gel spf30
Php
Ingredients: Phoryd Benzimidazale, Sulfonic
Acid in hydro gel base
I’ve been going to Skin Perfect Derma for already
eight months. Though they’ll be suggesting a lot of products to you after your
facial session, I stuck with getting a make-up base that is water based. What I
like about the Skin Perfect Hydro Defense Gel is when you apply it on a hot
sunny day, it is so cool on the skin that you think you just washed your face
in cold water.
3)
Flawless Sun Gel
Php 700ish
Ingredients:
My aesthetician (then) suggested me to
apply this when I was going on a beach trip after I just had a facial with
peeling. It is always important to put sunscreen wherever you go, even if
you’re just typing on your computer! Those radiation from your computer is also
harmful. But ofcourse, it is still best to stay out of the sun after you’ve had
a facial and your skin is expected to peel for a week.
You can use this not just on a beach trip
or fieldwork, but also as a make up primer. It is less dense than the Skin
Perfect Hydro Sun Defence gel. If you like your primers watery, then this is a
better choice. Flawless Sun Gel can only be purchased in Flawless Clinics.

Maybelline Baby Skin Pore Eraser 22ml
Php 299.00
Ingredients: Dimethicone, Crosspolymer, Stearyl
Heptanoate, Caprylyl, Glycol, Silica, Silylate, Propylene Glycol,
Pentaerythrityl, Tetraisostearate, Prunus Cerasus extract / Bitter Cherry
extract, [may contain CI 73360/Red 30, CI 77492/ Iron Oxides]
I couldn’t believe it when the saleslady
said, “It’s Php 299.00”. I had to make her repeat the price because I’ve been
owning expensive ones. I have yet to update this article once I’ve used it for
a week. But this is a cheaper alternative among all the primers written above.
It is available in major drugstores, and
health and beauty deparment sections of malls nationwide.
