MAC-Foundations and Blushes give me breakouts on my cheeks and nose.

Bare Minerals- Severely clogged pores, cystic acne and really itchy skin.

Revlon Colorstay- HG for a week. The next week I had pimples on my chin and around my mouth.

Amazing Concealer- What was I thinking??? Mineral Oil is the first ingredient!

LORAC- Loose powder gave me pimples on my cheeks.

Tarte- Tickled Peach Cheek Stain gave me a horrible rash and itchy red bumps.

Pro Activ- Made me have more pimples than I thought I could ever have.

Estee Lauder- Double Matte Foundation and their Tinted Moisturizer gave me breakouts.

Lancome- Cystic Acne from Adaptive Foundation.

Hmmmm.....There's more but I am starting to sound like a Bitter Betty. There are plenty of products that haven't broken me out though!

LOL!! You really made me laugh...I was just racking my brain trying to think of products that haven't made me all rashy, itchy and bumpy and then I read your post and it seems you have the same problem!

Thanks for the good laugh! I just have very sensitive skin and its just hard to find products that my skin will behave with.
 
L'Oreal True Match

L'Oreal Visibly Clean Facial Wash

L'Oreal Visible Lift

(L'Oreal can just *! right off! How evil are they?)

stila's tinted moist.
 
I used Maybelline's Dream Matte Mousse Makeup and I broke out with these nasty nasty zits

Nothing has made me break out, but I have been careful to only use non-comedogenic foundation, concealor, and powder ever since I first started getting acne and went to the dermatologist when I was about 14 or so.

However, Maybelline's Shine Free foundation made the skin on my nose dry and peeling after only 2 or 3 days, and it healed as soon as I quit the foundation... I don't know what they could have put in that foundation that would more drying than my acne medications (which don't make my skin peely), maybe it was an allergic reaction instead?

 
My friend used to work for MARY KAY, so she gave me some of their products and unfortunately I broke out from using MARY KAY foundation.

I have pretty bad eczema, so many things make it break out. Recently, I even tried Aromaleigh, which caused my entire face to break out (even the skin that isn't normally affected by eczema). Basically, anything in powder-form causes my skin to break out. I have yet to find a makeup I can wear on my eyes without causing the eczema to flare up.

Same here. I had a free makeover from Mary Kay and purchased a butt load of their makeup like 10 years ago. I had an allergic reaction and broke out all over afterwards. My face hated it for some reason so I returned it and got my money back.
 
MAC Fluidline made my eye lids blister.

Revlon Colorstay Foundation blocks my pores.

MaryKay eyeshadows make my eye lids blister.

I can use BE foundation, but if you have had problems wearing it be sure to check product labels for bismuth oxychloride. Bismuth is a common ingredient in cosmetics and acne products.

Welcome beaulahlou! If you need help with anything on here just shout

 
A lot of products have made me break out, but the worst and most painful product breakout I've had was from MAC Studio Fix. It was BAD.

Now I am afraid to try the blushes, but they look so pretty! the blushes are gorgeous on! i have very acne prone skin and they didn't cause me to break out at all.. then again, dream matte moouse foundation didn't break me out either.. so i guess it just depends on your skin type. i say you should definately try the blush though.. i love them :icon_love
 
MAC Select Tint breaks me out as well as MAC's Sketch eyeshadow. The MAC girl said the red dye in that eyeshadow tends to irritate some people so I traded it for Embark.

Estee Lauder's Idealist breaks me out too.

I can't think of anything else..although I have sensitive skin.

lol, everytime I walk by I gaze longingly at them, but I am so afraid of getting the bad breakouts I got from the foundation. I love the look of the Plum one, though:icon_love
