We check all products for comedogenic ingredients using the Acne Clinic NYC’s Website.
Primers: Looking for primers that effectively prep your skin for foundation without clogging your pores? Look no further! We love the Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Hydrating Makeup Primer and the Hourglass Vanish Airbrush Primer. These two primers are absolute game-changers. Our top pick is the Hydrogrip Primer, perfect for all skin types with its lightweight formula that grips onto your makeup for all-day wear. Plus, both primers are free from comodogenic ingredients, creating a flawless canvas every time.
2. Foundations & Complexion Sticks: Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Longwear Foundation & Merit The Minimalist Perfecting Complexion Foundation and Concealer Stick If you're looking to achieve a flawless complexion, these foundation and concealer sticks are must-haves. Their smooth application and buildable coverage make them perfect for achieving a natural and even skin tone. Additionally, the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Longwear Foundation stands out with its impressive blend of wrinkle-fighting ingredients and skin-hydrating properties, ensuring not just a flawless look but also long-term skincare benefits. The Merit Minimalist Complexion and Concealer Stick can be used on the whole face if you get different shades for concealer, and contouring.
3. Concealers: We mentioned the Merit The Minimalist Perfecting Complexion Foundation and Concealer Stick which can be used as concealer for the undereye. Pat McGrath Labs Sublime Perfection Concealer and the Rare Beauty Liquid Touch Brightening Concealer are a range of concealers designed to brighten the undereye area and effectively conceal blemishes. These concealers provide excellent coverage while also lending a radiant glow to the skin. Additionally, the Pat McGrath Labs Sublime Perfection Concealer offers the added benefit of minimizing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines for a smoother, more youthful undereye complexion.
4. Contour & Bronzer: Again, the honorable mention Merit The Minimalist Perfecting Complexion Foundation and Concealer Stick can be used for contour if you use the shades that are cool-toned. We love the Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Sun-Kissed Glow Cream Bronzer to bring back some warmth to the face. We couldn’t find a powder bronzer that is non-comedogenic, but if you find one, feel free to let us know and we can add it on here for our makeup besties :)
5. Blush & Highlight: To bring back color into our makeup base, we love the Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Liquid Blushes and the
Merit Flush Balm Cream Blushes. These blushes effortlessly bring some color to our makeup base and boast a wide array of shades that seamlessly complement diverse skin tones. To bring some glow into our base, we love the Rare Beauty Positive Light Liquid Luminizer Highlight, and the Fenty Beauty Liquid Killawatt Fluid Freestyle Highlighter. The shades are super pretty and give a perfect glow.
6. Setting Powder & Setting Spray: Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray and the
Saie Airset Radiant Loose Setting Powder are high-quality setting spray and powder that are excellent choices for ensuring your makeup stays flawless throughout the day, providing a strong hold and lasting power to keep everything perfectly in place. There are not many non-comedogenic powders and sprays out there, so if you know of some, please share it with your makeup besties. Sidenote: the Saie Airset Radiant Loose Setting Powder has a tiny bit of shimmer so test it out to see if you do not mind that :)
