Cass, I just have to say that natural beauty radiates from you. Everything about you. And you're so down to earth and fun! You don't let the fact that you're a gorgeous and perfect model blow your head up. You make us all feel equal. This is definitely why I always will consider you my favorite guru and person. I hope I might meet you someday, because you're such a role model to me. Love you, and happy holidays!
I have had acne problems since I was 18. I didnt even know that you could do something like this. I saw you on a tv show and I was amazed at what you can do. I am going to try these routines and see how it works. Thank you so much!!!!
I had really really bad acne and I used acne one by dermatology choice I got from aesthetician. I cleaned my face with clariaonic deep pore. At nigjtb i also clean it with a mandeloc toner. Then I put bit c and e serum for the hyper pigmentation. I also regularly drink 1300 mg primrose oil twice a day and vit c. My face cleared like super clean. I also had photo facial treatmenta but only 4 sessions then I had a pro peel. I spray my brushes everyday before use with alcohol too. My foundation is lycogel and I set it with glo minerals. My face is super clear now clearer than ever.
for those who have problems with acne, I used to have a lot of acne and I started 2 wash my face with a mixture of my pore scrubbing cleanser ( oil of olay) honey and baking soda even amounts of everything, and now I don't have acne anymore, all I'm left with is a lot of scaring,I occasionally get a breakout here n there but it dries out within a day or two,I started 2 times a day and now I wash my face once a day(morning) and a night just wash only with my scrub,
I dont' normally comment on video's but I just have to say your a huge inspiration to my daughter. She loves your tutorials as she is just starting to struggle with acne. Thank you for being so open and inspiring.
i have been waiting for this video forever cassie! you are seriously one of my role models. I'm turning 16 in a few days, and I've had acne for about 5 years, but it has gotten pretty bad this past year. you being a model with acne and being confident really inspires me. thanks so much
Your videos are such an inspiration! Although I don't have cystic acne, I have terrible scars. I have no acne but it looks like I do ... my whole chin is just one, big red scar. Same on my cheeks. You give girls with acne problems a hope!!! Love it!
I use MUFE HD foundation and I have cystic acne. It's the only foundation that does not cause flare ups/breakouts for me. As long as you wash this off properly, your skin will be fine.
I had very bad acne and used Accutane to treat it. My acne was similar to DiamondsAndHeels14's acne from her popular foundation video. I used it for 6 months and it worked amazingly. The only side effect I experienced was lip and nose dryness. It's been 4 years and my acne hasn't come back but if it does I won't hesitate to use it again. In Manuela's experience the side effects were far worse than the benefits. In my experience the benefits were AMAZING and I had very minimal side effects.
I never heard of the spray on to control oil! Definitely going to have to get that! As of right now I lightly dust my face with baby powder using a brush and then use a bronzer to highlight the areas needed, so I don't look washed out. It's worked WONDERS for my oily complextion. Of course this is done AFTER my foundation is on :)
So trying to find a good tutorial I stumbled across the 1 you made in 2010. I checked to see if you had done a more recent 1 only to find 1 made not 24 hours ago! In the first 1 when you took of your makeup I could see how self conscious you were. Then this video off it went without flinching. It made me smile to see that change happen. Def. subbing, thank you!
if u don't mind may i suggest a skin care tip, by the way i love watching ur videos, u have an attractive personality, i would love to help u get rid of acne as i suffered 4m it, so my tip is daily apply thick layer of plan natural yougart on ur face 4 20mins n sometime in the evening apply pure goat milk for 5mins n than wash it. it will dry ur skin meaning it will dry away ur acne n minimize ur pores, don't touch ur skin yr skin should not feel any kind of heat, avoid sun rays
i might sound insane but wash ur face atleast 5 times a day or splash water on ur face n at night after all day skin drying process apply a good moisturizer 30mins before hitting the bed so that the moisturizer gets the time to absorb into the skin, i also had such bad acne n this routine helped me like a miracle n yes if u follow this simple routine than remember u have to show patience 4 a month n drink luke warm water.
When getting a medium-full coverage drug store foundation I tried a lot and found that the Revlon 24 hour super stay one, for my oily to combination skin really works well and covered my acne. They have different formulas too to go along with skin types and shades. Thats at least what worked for me :)
Try exfoliating your face two times a week, and moisturize before you apply any makeup. This will ensure that your pores are clean, and your skin is a smooth surface for application. Also, make sure your foundation brush doesn't have any residue. It needs to be washed daily. One more thing, instead of using back and forth motions with your brush, try buffing the foundation into your skin going clockwise and then counterclockwise. Hope this helps! :)
Have you ever tried Retin-A or Tretinoin? I have bad acne and big painful pimples and It REALLY performed miracles on my face. It not only took away the acne but it took away a lot of my scars as well. I actually quit wearing foundation for the first time in like 4 years and it is amazing. I know I hate it when people who try and tell me what to do about my acne but it was the best thing I ever did. Idk if you tried it yet but you might give it a shot! You're beautiful regardless though!
Hi there :) You could try a waterproof, full-coverage foundation. Sheer it out over your entire face, before going back to blemishes and building coverage just on those areas. This avoids that cakey feeling. Apply thin layer over thin layer, instead of going in with a thick layer straight away. Blot well with a tissue after letting everything dry to get rid of any excess foundation, then set with a dusting of translucent powder, which is colourless so you can't see it even if it transfers. :)
That is very true! I have been a low-fat vegan for almost a year now and my acne is still an issue. The diet has helped my skin, but I still have trouble.
I absolutely love your videos. I've had problems with acne for several years, and I recently tried using cleansers and other face products with benzoyl peroxide (that I chose after watching your videos) instead of my typical salicylic acid and my face has started to show improvement after so many years! I hope you keep being the super amazing person you are :)
I started wearing foundation to cover up some of my pimples and oiliness.,i found one brand that suits me and my budget. And that is revlon colorstay liquid foundation for combination to oily skin. You just need to get used to applying it cause its kinda tricky at first. It dries up fast and oxidizes so you have to choose wisely for your color shade and test it first to ur skin before actually buying it.
This may sound a bit silly... but I didn't know powder foundation made the imperfections stand out! (mainly my acne scars) so I'm going to try just applying my liquid foundation and leaving it at that. and I will just finish with powder foundation before a night out I guess! Love your videos! Thanks again.
Cassandra, it seems that your hair has lighten a little. I don't know if this was done on purpose or not, but this lighter tone looks so wonderful on you!
I have to tell you that you are a very brave women to expose what some people would consider to be flaws. I watched a few of your videos quite awhile ago and had no idea you even had acne. You are do an excellent job with your makeup;)..I am an older women..that sounds weird to that but I am 36...people always say to use powder to set concealer and foundation. it looks awful on me..i have really dark circles under my eyes..But like you I work what I got.lol.;)
I used to have really bad acne... And I used to put a lot of cleansing products and makeup and it did nothing for me, but now I do the bare minimum and now I have a clearer face.. I'm talking 1 a month or so. Try it :)
Cassandra I purchased the MUFA HD foundation based on your review/suggestion, it was the worst so I returned it and got the Too Faced BB cream because the coverage is exactly the same and feels better and looks better on my skin. I'm gonna go back to my Estée Lauder maximum coverage foundation. I look perfect with it on. You should try it so that you don't have to cake on layers upon layers of makeup.
You are such an Inspiration for so many Teens that struggle with acne !!! I know i don't have the worst skin but when i look in the mirror without any make-up on i can't help but feel insecure :/ What skin care or foundations would u recommend for someone with combination skin ??
It's so amazing how you can cover acne so well, I have a few pimples and cannot even cover it properly with foundation and concealer... -_-' You are an amazing person thank you for those amazing videos
MUFE is a make up brand that you can get in high end departmental stores, hence it is fairly high end although 'not as' high end as Dior or Chanel. But sometimes it's more to do with brand than quality -you may find other make up brands that use the same ingredients with the fraction of the cost. A lot of professionals admit they love to use their fingers for foundation as it gives this natural glow to the skin but I do agree about the camera bit. However she never said she was a professional.
but depending which BC you use, the hormones can actually cause people (especially acne-prone people) to break out waaay worse than before. A dermatologist is the only one who can really make a recommendation about what is best for someone's skin as far as medications are concerned. Glad BC helped you, though! :)
I was on accutane for a year on the minimum dosage and it was fine; you just have to listen to the dermatologist and make sure you take precautions and don't get pregnant.
The only time I matify my skin is when I perform, because stage lights reflect off of dewyness too much. Other than that, I agree, dewy is so much healthier looking.
I have very oily acne prone skin in my t-zone but normal to dry skin on my cheeks. I can't stand the feeling of liquid foundation. I can feel it sliding on my face with or without powder or setting spray. A little Concealer I can handle, but not a full face and certainly not every day. But then again, I've only used drugstore foundation because I can't make myself spend the money on something I won't wear regularly. Maybe I should invest and see if it makes a difference. Thanks for the Vid!
girl I have the same problem like you pretty bad hyperpigmentation, and the only foundations that I try that can cover every dark spot its the Estee lauder maximum coverage foundation & now I just trying the kat von d lock it foundation :3
I didn't know if maybe even putting the concealer on a zit on your cheek to cover up and then going to your forhead and covering that up would that transfer bacteria from your cheek onto your forhead or doesn't it really matter? I just didn't want to cover a zit on my chin and then put it somewhere else and have that cause a problem there... I don't know if I make sense. Sorry!
Thank you soooooo much! You are a lifesaver! I saw an article about you and your story in a magazine and I'm so friggin happy! I want to be a model so badly but I have acne and I'm just so happy I found you! Thank you so very much Cassandra!!!!
i have acne prone skin, and MUFE HD never breaks me out! so i guess it just depends on each individual. warning them away from it might be steering them in the wrong direction!
Do you mean like an airbrushing tutorial? I downloaded this awesome book before, "Professional Portrait Retouching Techniques for Photographers Using Photoshop" and it came with a folder of photoshop brushes AND full size HQ images to practice on! The steps were super easy to follow, too. If that's what you're looking for, you should try and find it or PM me and I can email it to you!
Your face looks great!! I'm so, so happy for you!!! I've struggled with acne and oily skin since jr. High. The absolute BEST spot treatment I've found is the Effaclar Duo Dual Action Acne Treatment!-I'm sure you have heard of this product and tried it...but, hey, you never know! *I* however, just ran across it-absolutely amazing! Works wonders!
I wish you stayed a lot closer to the camera so we could actually see how much it covers and generally how it looks on the skin, if its cakey or not or if it covers enough. Make-up always looks nice and perfect and not over done and natural when u sit so far away
i wish you had had your camera zoomed in but wow im amazed. I cant figure out a foundation i can use. I tried covergirl+olay and loved it but now that its not summer i dont think they have my color
I just love your videos... I also experience nasty break outs and find it quite difficult to cover up. But my soon tends to be more dry than oily..and it doesn't take foundation or powder very well... But your tips are super! Can't wait till the next video
Cassandra, I don't know your particular situation but having acne prone, sensitive skin myself and using a lot of different make up products, I noticed that SPF is a big NO NO for me. I do not use SPF in my make up products since September and my skin seems to clear up quite a bit. I know what dermatology doctors say about SPF, mine says the same thing but you know what? I don't sit out in the sun for hours for the sun to do any significant damage and being originally from Europe...
You should really try macs pro long wear concealer. I apply it with the beauty blender and wear it alone without foundation. It works great to cover my acne/scars
Have you ever used Cover Fx? Its like a cream foundation. And made for people who have acne and redness. I use it and then go over it with Makeup forever. If you've use it Id love to know what you think of it!
Have you tried the bare minerals pack? It only uses powders, no liquid foundations, it looks natural. The bad thing is that it needs a concealer, but it doesn't include it
Hi you probably won't see this but I had to try. I have the worst acne problems and I was wondering what you use to wash your face with. I love your make-up videos so much!!! Wish i had your talent and your confidence!
Just watched your foundation routine from 2010 and then this one, definitely has cleared up a lot! You're beautiful either way with or without make up(:
personally, I think that you could have left it with just the concealer,and added some loose or compact powder, because that concealer seems to have pretty good coverage... :)
You're an inspiration, beautiful inside and out. thank you for sharing all these videos, you undoubtedly have helped so many people, including myself, you are truly amazing
omg i have been watching your shows for a long while now ... and your skin has got amazing girl!!! you should be so proud, ur medicine and creams are working!!! xxx love ur vids
Can you please, please, please do a video showing how you refresh your makeup that you have had on all day, for a dinner with the girls, or a date night.
I have a skin question: I went to the Dermatologist recently and he said that as far as he was concerned that moisturizer clogged pores. My skin would be dry as a desert if I didn't moisturize. Do you know if this is true? Thanks :)
Great tutorial! I wish you would have had a more zoomed in shot (mainly so we could see the affect of using that kind of patting/waving technique!), though (: I think your videos are fabulous because you're super friendly and like to explain a little more about the ingredients and science than other youtubers! Thanks (: P.S I would love a video on the best primers for oily skin- I simply CANNOT find what to buy
Careful because if you put the concealor directly on your acne, bacteria will fester at the top of that stick. It's best to put it on clean fingers first and blend. (:
you should really try COVER FX foundations and primers. They are for acne and heal acne as well. The products you are using are not for acne and contain so many ingredients that are bad for your skin and only making it worse. Honestly I had bad acne also and when I switched over to cover FX my skin cleared up sooo much! look into Cover FX. I think it will help a lot! =)
I'm trying to HELP people. I bought the MUFE foundation (the one that Cassandra used in this vid), and it broke me out SO BAD! So I'm trying to warn people with acne prone/oily skin not to use it. I love Cassandra, but this video was just giving people the wrong information. Just trying to help so people won't break out from this stuff like I did.
I would totally use this, but the doctor says no liquid foudation, only powder from almay or phasicians formula :( she perscribed me some antibiotics, doxycline and gave me some epiduo, it's only been 3 weeks, and its working already!
Most topical acne treatments (both over-the-counter and prescription) are a waste of money... I've suffered from acne for 8 years and tried it all so I can attest to this personally! The best treatments I've found are complete systems, not stand-alone creams or cleansers.
Cass, I just have to say that natural beauty radiates from you. Everything about you. And you're so down to earth and fun! You don't let the fact that you're a gorgeous and perfect model blow your head up. You make us all feel equal. This is definitely why I always will consider you my favorite guru and person. I hope I might meet you someday, because you're such a role model to me. Love you, and happy holidays!

Many people say that almay clear complexion is great because it covers acne and also heals acne, great video!
Neautrogena Healthy Skin Foundation is what I use & it doesn't clog up my pores.
Try exfoliating your face two times a week, and moisturize before you apply any makeup. This will ensure that your pores are clean, and your skin is a smooth surface for application. Also, make sure your foundation brush doesn't have any residue. It needs to be washed daily. One more thing, instead of using back and forth motions with your brush, try buffing the foundation into your skin going clockwise and then counterclockwise. Hope this helps! :)
YEAY! I love you darlin!
your skin has gotten so much better over time...CONGRATS girl!

I used it, and I'm perfectly fine! I think she has a sensitivity to things like that though, so Accutane is DEFINATLY not for everyone.

Your skin has cleared up soooo much!! It looks amazing!
I love this look! You are so pretty and I think that you shouldn't add a thick blush to it because I find that it reveals your acne more
you are truly beautiful inside and out. I am jealous of your confidence without makeup!
Burdock root, dandelion root & yellow dock will clear up you skin girl ;) helped me so much with my adult acne.
I was on accutane for a year on the minimum dosage and it was fine; you just have to listen to the dermatologist and make sure you take precautions and don't get pregnant.
It's official...this woman is the Queen of makeup coverage ;)

wtf i think she looks very healthy! yes, she is thin but i can see healthy muscle
its soo great to see you again cass!!!!
Your skin is getting so much better! You look great!
i agree you cant tell how good the product covers
It's great to have you back...your skin looks amazing
You are seriously the most adorable person in the whole world!
Have you ever used Cover Fx? Its like a cream foundation. And made for people who have acne and redness. I use it and then go over it with Makeup forever. If you've use it Id love to know what you think of it!
Have you tried the bare minerals pack? It only uses powders, no liquid foundations, it looks natural. The bad thing is that it needs a concealer, but it doesn't include it
Hi you probably won't see this but I had to try. I have the worst acne problems and I was wondering what you use to wash your face with. I love your make-up videos so much!!! Wish i had your talent and your confidence!
Rose water is a great and natural alternative to the urban decay setting spray :)
Just watched your foundation routine from 2010 and then this one, definitely has cleared up a lot! You're beautiful either way with or without make up(:
personally, I think that you could have left it with just the concealer,and added some loose or compact powder, because that concealer seems to have pretty good coverage... :)
Your skin is looking awesome!!! So beautiful. I'm glad your acne is clearing up
It's the Caudalie SOS Thirst-Quenching Serum. I have the same one so that's how I know what it looks like haha. Hope that helped!
You're an inspiration, beautiful inside and out. thank you for sharing all these videos, you undoubtedly have helped so many people, including myself, you are truly amazing
omg i have been watching your shows for a long while now ... and your skin has got amazing girl!!! you should be so proud, ur medicine and creams are working!!! xxx love ur vids
FYW, increasing your eating habits can slow your metabolism. Especially if you eat certain foods. But I get your point, and I like it :)
i use make up for ever hd in #117 and #118 with the real techniques foundation brush every day! love that makeup :)
You look beautiful as always Cassandra. You are an inspiration to me and so many others! Loved the make up too!
Can you please, please, please do a video showing how you refresh your makeup that you have had on all day, for a dinner with the girls, or a date night.
You are seriously amazing, I have learnt so much from watching your videos and trying to do the same things that you do. So thank you so much :)
I have a skin question: I went to the Dermatologist recently and he said that as far as he was concerned that moisturizer clogged pores. My skin would be dry as a desert if I didn't moisturize. Do you know if this is true? Thanks :)
Great tutorial!
I wish you would have had a more zoomed in shot (mainly so we could see the affect of using that kind of patting/waving technique!), though (:
I think your videos are fabulous because you're super friendly and like to explain a little more about the ingredients and science than other youtubers! Thanks (:
P.S I would love a video on the best primers for oily skin- I simply CANNOT find what to buy
Careful because if you put the concealor directly on your acne, bacteria will fester at the top of that stick. It's best to put it on clean fingers first and blend. (:
you should really try COVER FX foundations and primers. They are for acne and heal acne as well. The products you are using are not for acne and contain so many ingredients that are bad for your skin and only making it worse. Honestly I had bad acne also and when I switched over to cover FX my skin cleared up sooo much! look into Cover FX. I think it will help a lot! =)
Your skin is looking wonderful lately.
omg yes that happened to me too! ive been breaking out with cystic acne for 1 1/2 yrs so far!
Cass your videos are so peppy and energetic! I watch one like everyday, you just brighten my day.:) love you!
Would putting on the make up make the skin worst? Or is it ok sometimes ? Especially for special occasions.
I'm trying to HELP people. I bought the MUFE foundation (the one that Cassandra used in this vid), and it broke me out SO BAD! So I'm trying to warn people with acne prone/oily skin not to use it. I love Cassandra, but this video was just giving people the wrong information. Just trying to help so people won't break out from this stuff like I did.
your skin has improved tremendously!
I believe the brand is Caudalie. It might be the vinosource one.
Your skin is looking great! What cleanser, moisturizer are you using and what have you been doing for your acne scars?
I would totally use this, but the doctor says no liquid foudation, only powder from almay or phasicians formula :( she perscribed me some antibiotics, doxycline and gave me some epiduo, it's only been 3 weeks, and its working already!
your skin has gotten so much better!
Most topical acne treatments (both over-the-counter and prescription) are a waste of money... I've suffered from acne for 8 years and tried it all so I can attest to this personally! The best treatments I've found are complete systems, not stand-alone creams or cleansers.
