I am trying to cover vitiligo in my face, I have used dermablend,coverblend,illuminaire,revlon,colotrati on, the only thing with staying power is revlon, however it does not give good coverage,I am trying to cover my natural color, since I am more vitiligo, than I am pigmented, I normally don't bother with makeup, however, I kind of want some coverage any suggestions

Have you tried MAC concealers, Bobbi Brown and Prescriptives also have nice ones.

I know that you said you tried MAC, but which did you try? You might want to go to A MAC store to try Full Coverage Foundation. We use it all the time on customers with severe acne, scaring, rosecea, tatoos, etc. It works very, very well.

I have been to the mac counter in a hecht store, the salesperson, used a liquid, that only highlighted the probleum, I left purchasing eyeshadow, and a lipgloss that has staying power that I like a lot, maybe I will give it another try, and see if I can find a rep, with a little more time, and determination, I actually like mac products, thanks for the input,

No the liquid doesn't provide as good a coverage as the one that comes in the pot. Try going to a MAC Store.
Also, Makeup Forever, sold at Sephora is great.

Yes, please give it another try! The Full Coverage foundation is only sold at the MAC store, and I guarantee that it will work!!! Make Up Forever Full Cover Concealer is also a great full coverage product, it covers tattoos, birthmarks, scars, burns, etc just like the MAC Full Coverage does.

I second the Make-Up Forever Full Cover Concealer....Ive covered a women's bruises with it...they key for better coverage is layers....with each layer of concealer use powered to set and then apply another layer...the most you would need is probably two at the most 3... and the layers are thin so you wouldnt have to worry about heavy makeup...its a trick I learned with covering hickies...try it out..-Melissa

I think the concealer would work for you. Like I said its the way you apply concealer and the trick with layering and setting with loose matte powder that works. Blending is also very important. Get a sample of the concealer from sephora and practice this technique before buying. It takes time but with the time and effort for the desired effect. -Melissa

I second the Bobbi Brown concealers. They are great. I haven't tried Prescriptives and I wasn't too fond of MAC because of it's inability to blend well with my skin.

I like Cinema Secrets concealer/foundation with a primer underneath. It does a nice job on my very dark circles.
