The best liquid foundation for acne prone skin?

I am a 20 year old girl with a combination of dry and oily skin- but mostly oily. I get breakouts really often and I find that every time I try covering it up with make up, it makes it worse. The current foundation I’m using is a BB cream by Bobbi Brown which has SPF 15, however I was wondering if there was any groundbreaking product that could cover and heal pimples/ acne at the same time. Would love to hear from you girls!

    would also like to find something that will help my skin. I also have oil/combination skin and would love a foundation that doesn’t produce oil/ breakouts and lasts a full day.

    Clinique anti blemish foundation use to be my holy grail when I suffered from acne…
    its a full coverage foundation but doesn’t feel heavy on the skin… 🙂

    bit pricey but definitely worth trying 🙂

    I was talking to my daughter in England last night and we were discussing foundations and she has been recommended ELF for her oily/ congested skin. Its really cheap in Kmart too!

    I know you were after foundation – but I thought I still might suggest Maybelline’s Dream Pure BB Cream in the blue capped tube.

    It’s made for blemish prone skin. It is oil free and has 2% salicylic acid. It also has an SPF of 15 and contains vitamins A, B and E. I use it in my everyday routine and I’ve never broken out from it. It only provides a sheer semi matte coverage however, but it may be helpful as another resort for you 🙂 I really love it!

    Here’s some reviews on it from BH users, and an article that BH did on the Rimmel Foundation range if you’re interested:

    You could try The Body Shop Tea Tree Flawless BB Cream, it’s designed for blemished skin. I think the range has a concealer and pore minimizer too.
