I always say that you have to start with a clean, clear canvas before you can cover anything up and that's where the Differin Oil Control Moisturizer comes in. It doesn't clog anything, but it absorbs the oil and it gives you that primer finish.

Then I'll go in with a foundation, using a buffing brush—I think Sephora or IT Cosmetics makes like a foundation buffing brush—and I like to put the foundation on with that and swirl it around the face really gently.

I do love using It Cosmetics, for someone that needs a lot of coverage, I feel that it does the trick and a little goes a long way. So when you're trying to cover a pimple, I mean literally it takes just a little bit. You could even use the Bye Bye Undereye concealers that they have and it's like a little tube, you can squeeze out a little bit and you can actually use it almost as a foundation. It just covers so well. They also have Bye Bye Redness, which, you know if you have a problem with something super red, you can use that to kind of cover it up before you put on the foundation.

I use Urban Decay Naked Skin for everything from covering up pimples to covering up under-eye circles. I love those things! They have a green one. They have a peach one. They have a pink one, and I have to tell you, sometimes even if [your skin is] red and obviously people tend to go with green to kind of cancel out the red. I'll use the peach one over it and it'll cover it. The deep peach, the pink, is universal.

So, lately when someone comes to me and they're saying that they've been breaking out, I usually will give them a tube of Differin gel and just have them use it. Even though it takes it a little bit to work, it really, really does work. So, I really try to get them to use Differin gel because the thing is they can just be much more confident and just not worry about, you know, getting like breakouts here and there.

I love to use a mist, like a setting mist. Whether it's just like, Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Mist or the Mac Cosmetics Fix Plus....I love that it helps everything kind of just adhere to your face. It has a really dewy, luminous finish.
