Traditional makeup cannot instantly camouflage your tough scars and pimples and apply too much powder on the acne attracts a lot of attention.

2. Feels heavy on the skin:

3. Requires touch up:

Makeup brushes, sponges have to be cleaned regularly to avoid bacteria to develop. Same makeup piece is used on many brides which transfer the bacteria from one to another. Lip pencils also should be wiped with alcohol wipes before the next use.
