I have hyperpigmentation from acne scarring and blemishing. I have tried everything on the market and nothing seems to work. At the present time I am using philosophy products that seems to be working. Now I am looking for a mineral makeup that has full coverage that won't irritate my skin, I am so afraid to try anything. Nothing seems to work. I've purchased many products and have been disappointd by all of them. So can anyone help me, I am so frustrated. So now I have to walk around embarrassed with my face looking like a leopard and don't know what to do!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome! You came to the right place. You can either do a search or go to the other forums for what you need. Just ask away someone here has probably experienced what you have. I was able to get rid of some brown spots off my face from sun damage with TCA

Hi ... I just joined this forum... I have melasma.. on my upper lip and my cheeks.. its gotten worse and the forums say to use either Celacor or Dermablend....

I have used them ALL

MAC
Estee Lauder
Drug Store
etc

I have had facials. glycolic peels (at home and at dermatologists office). AHA peels,
I thought I was fine , but my mother noticed them and TODAY in the bathroom at pier one it looked like a five oclock shadow on my upper lip....

is it hormones'... birth control pills, sun exposure.. I have done them all... I live in sunny san diego california...

If you find something.... to cover and NOT smear off.. can you let me know and vice versa? Good luck darling....

Same problem I have, I had awful acne and left me with so many red marks that are fading but taking an extremely long time! I have no actual scars though. Having pale skin also makes them invisible. I'm gonna try Vitamin C serum very soon, but I'm guess copper peptides with a peel might be more effective? For me I think it too harsh because my skin is sensitive (im young).
