How To Make a Pimple Disappear With Makeup — Really

We've got you covered.

While there's no good time for a breakout, the worst ones seem to come at the most inopportune times -- like when you're a wedding guest and bound to see an old flame or two, or worse, when it's your own wedding and you wake up to a blossoming red boulder under your skin. It's on those days that we thank our lucky stars for full coverage makeup and those who wield makeup brushes like a magic wand to banish zits. Yep, we're talking about YouTube stars who have bared it all in the name of showing us how to really cover acne with makeup.

Usually, good lighting and a pro's touch keep acne from the public eye. But these YouTubers show what lies beneath layers of carefully applied primer, foundation, concealer and finishing powder. Watch these makeup wizards cast a vanishing spell on acne, from erasing the red marks that look like they're eating your face alive to disguising those 3-D bumps that seem to turn into their own planets.
