Which is better for covering up acne scars and acne, liquid or stick concealer? Are there any drugstore brands you would recommend? What’s the difference between liquid concealer and liquid foundation?

Both do the same job so it’s really about what’s more convenient for you.
Liquid M.A.C.
Stick concealer is better. Try max factor "erase", it’s really good. Liquid is more transparent than stick.
to hide acne scars i very much recommend ‘Make Up Forever’ Extreme Full Coverage Waterproof Concealer. Liquid concealer will not cover up the acne scars trust me. A waterproof concealer with extreme coverage will. You can find this product at Sephora.
Bare Minerals is the best…it covers everything
#1 stick concealer is much more thicker so they will cover more.
#2 hey the difference between drug store brand and a good M.A.C brand will only be about $5-$10 so why don’t u wait another month and save it for a good quality which lasts longer too. instead of throwing money away on cheap make up
#3 a concealer is much more concentrate than foundation so use concealer to hide scars and foundation to smooth skin complexion.
hope it helps … good luck

I would recommend first using an cover-up with a green tint. This counteracts the red tone of acne and makes it easier to cover. Usually I think of foundation as being a final layer over your entire face, and concealer as more of a spot treatment. You could try going to a Sephora and trying out some different brands to see what you like best.
stick concealer is better
both are good but i use powder green by physicians forula cosmetics you can get it at rite aid or cvs it’s great and dosen’t make your skin pastey
I would use MAC make up it covers well. You can go to there store and they will do ur make-up and teach you how to apply it
Liquid spreads better, so I would use liquid. However, I don’t have any acne scars to cover up. but I would use a liquid and then a powder on top of that
Hi! I sell both Mary Kay and Avon. I would love to answer all your questions. I love make-up, I love skin care, and I love making people pretty!

most definitely stick with the cream stick!! liquid concealer will only make your scars and pimples more obvious. Foundation sticks are thicker and are thus better at covering problem areas. I love max factors pan-stik. This is very good foundation that will cover anything and even out your skin tone. I highly recommend it! You dont need to spend alot to get a good foundation, trust me! I was having a hard time finding my complexion in a foundation at one time and so I bought a stick that was $40 and it was the crappiest foundation I’d ever used before.
I think liquid concealer will eventually cease to exist- I mean this stuff is horrible!
