I bought this foundation after my skin decided to take a turn for the worse and break out while using my normal foundation (Revlon Colorstay). I'm not sure if it actually cleared up my acne since I was also using acne face washes, but it definitely stopped the acne in it's tracks. Whenever I wear this foundation I don't have to worry about ending the day with any new blemishes. The color I bought was the lightest shade, and it actually matched perfectly to my skin tone, which is sort of hard for me since I have pale skin. I'd say the coverage is light-medium, it evens out my complexion, but any really red areas need a bit more coverage.

For an over the counter product I found this worked wonders. I could feel more confindent in knowing my make up was the right shade & giving me proper coverage without looking caked on. Wonderful product and feels amazing on the skin

As a make-up artist and just being a typical girl. I always love trying out any new cosmetics. And one thing I have ALWAYS had a problem with is Acne and covering it up with varying foundations. Usually the ones I use from drug stores and more expensive cosmetic stores, cover it up well but leave my skin still oily and in fact make my zits even worse 99% of the time. But when I was bored one day and shopping in a mall, I went around being nosey in a drug store part of a Zellers and found Almay's Clear Complexion foundation. Which claims "BlemisHeal Technology™ contains salicylic acid to heal and conceal blemishes for a beautiful, even complexion." So I figure I had nothing to lose and gave it a try. From then on it has been my go to product always for hiding my acne and discoloration on my face. It does EXACTLY what it says, when I put it on in the morning it feels super light and conceals. But then when i clean it off before bed my blemishes are almost dried up and gone completely. I have never experienced a foundation like that since i started using make-up frequently at the age of 13. (now 26) So if you have a really hard time with acne etc I seriously you recommend you give this foundation a try. Plus they don't test on animals :)
