lennymancillas asked: I just found your blog and have gone completely nuts! I love it! What might be some really good medium-light coverage foundations for freckled girls? I love my freckles and still want them to be visible but want to cover up blemishes at the same time :-)

For your problem I would recommend a light weight BB Cream or foundation then spot concealing any blemishes :)

This way the majority of your skin (and your fabulous freckles) will shine through but any blemishes will be concealed. Any foundation with enough coverage to cover acne will most likely cover your freckles so spot concealing will be your friend! This method of applying foundation is best for anyone wanting super natural looking foundation yet still being able to cover troubled areas.

You want to apply a thin layer of foundation or BB Cream all over the skin then go in with a concealer on any blemishes. You can use your finger or a brush to blend it out. You also want to set any areas you applied concealer with powder because you don’t want the concealer to fade away through out the day. I find pressing/patting the powder over the areas with concealer will help add coverage and set the concealer without rubbing it away.

Try long wearing, pigmented concealers like MAC Pro Longwear Concealer, Loreal True Match Crayon Concealer (great for spot concealing), Revlon Photoready Concealer, Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay In Place Concealer.
