Acne Fighting Foundation is rated 4.1 out of 5 by 1363.
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Only foundation I'll use! I've suffered for as long as I can remember with acne, and I wouldn't dream of using a different foundation now. On a good day, this foundation really helps clear up my acne and soothes it. On a bad day, it covers it reasonably well, and at the very least doesn't make it any worse, which I would expect from other foundations. The lack of shades is frustrating, as Porcelain is the right shade for me most of the year but in the summer the next shade down is still too dark. If they added more shades it would be perfect! Only other thing is it can get a little greasy at the end of the day, but having oily skin I expect this anyway

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing I love this foundation. I use it every day and it doesn't break me out or bother my skin AND HAS EXCELLENT COVERAGE.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from too sheer i bought this a while back and the lightest shade oxidised very orange on my skin and even when building it up it didn’t give me any coverage and ended up not being visible on my face by the end of the day even with trying multiple setting powders, sprays and primers :(

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful Finish, Works With Breakout Prone Skin I first tried this foundation a couple years ago when I had a devastating breakout and my entire face was covered in acne and scars. I made the mistake of getting a shade too light, so I wasn't too crazy about it. I came back to it again recently when I experienced another breakout, and this time in the correct shade lol. I wasn't wearing makeup often, only for special occasions, but even with the texture in my skin and the dark spots all over my face I noticed how much I really liked it. I had been searching for a foundation that wouldn't aggravate my already angry skin, but with enough coverage, and this foundation was that for me. Even now that my skin is clear, I've stuck to using this foundation. The finish is beautiful as long as you use the right amount, because a little goes a long way. My everyday face now is this foundation, a little contour, and some blush. My skin glistens, and I don't have to worry about the product on my face causing breakouts anymore because my problematic skin really agrees with this foundation.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Only Foundation I use Note only does this foundation have the perfect amount of coverage, it’s the only one I’ve ever found that actually matches my skin tone and on top of that it doesn’t leave my skin feeling clogged and weighed down. I’ve gotten more compliments wearing this foundation than I have with any other, and I’ve tried too faced, Sephora and Clinique. 10/10 recommend I hope it’s NEVER discontinued or changed

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Buff and porcelain are the exact same shade I love how full coverage this is , Cuz this is FUUUUULLLLL coverage And it's not sticky like the other foundation I tried from elf (the square bottle) , I havent noticed it make my acne better , but it didn't make it worse , so that's a win for me . Lol I had to mix it with a porcelain shade from another brand to get the right color though.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from nice foundation It has a natural finish and more of a sheer to medium coverage because some of my acne still showed through. I like it because it doesn't clog my pores but sinse I am really oily it doesn't last all day. I did notice that my acne was less irritated than normal.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Only make up I use since I found it! I have acne prone skin and it's really hard to find foundation that doesn't clog the pores. This one is perfect for me.
