I have always been curious, how did people back then deal with acne? Back then as in around the 15-19 century and the beginning of the 20 century since back then we didn’t have all these medication available how did these people cope and how did people feel about it?

I’ve been thinking about getting bareMinerals makeup recently for my oily, acne-prone, and rosacea-prone skin. how do you find the coverage? does it actually clear up your acne? I’m a teenager, so I don’t want it to look too heavy. does it look unnatural? and how fast do you go through a pot of it?
Thanks!
