It's one thing to hide redness; it's quite another to disguise pitted, scarred acne marks. Doing so requires faking the texture of your skin. YouTuber Leyla Rose uses not one, not two, but three priming products underneath her foundation to minimize scarring: The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream, $12, Too Faced Hangover Primer, $15, and Too Faced Primed and Poreless, $30.

After applying moisturizer (Hamoud uses Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream, $100), apply a mattifying primer like Make Up For Ever Step 1 Skin Equalizer, $37, to "create a shield" over the acne. Then, Hamoud relies on a makeup pro trick to camouflage redness: She pulls out the green stuff. Because green counteracts redness, tapping a product like Becca Backlight Targeted Colour Corrector, $30, in Pistachio over acne makes the red spots blend seamlessly into the skin under foundation. Blend the green with a damp BeautyBlender, pushing it into the skin.

Using a pea-sized drop of Make Up For Ever Mat Velvet + Foundation, $41, and Illamasqua Rich Liquid Foundation, $45, Hamoud spreads the mixture across the entire face with a brush, buffing and blending with a BeautyBlender as she goes.
