Fake it til you make it. Perfect Skin.

I came across this article and wanted to share.

After a 10-year struggle with acne, Cassandra Bankson, 20, has figured out exactly how to cover even her worst breakouts, and gotten famous by sharing her tips with the world on YouTube.

Inspiring, or what? Watch more of Cassandra's videos at DiamondsAndHeels14, plus, here's more of her beauty gospel:
1. Prep first. Apply anti- shine gel to your T-zone, then a primer all over (a green-tinted one cuts down redness).
2. Add foundation. Go for a thick formula but avoid ones with pore-clogging silicones. Smear it on with clean fingers, and pat to blend for a super-natural look, she says. Dot concealer on any spots that still show through.
3. Then set. Apply powder, and use a setting spray to keep it all in place for hours without getting cakey.
4. Complete the look. Add your favorite eye, lip, and cheek color. And voila̿—gorgeous!
