Liquid foundation for acne prone/oily skin?

Ok, so I have been a bare minerals user for over 5 years.
I am 16.
Please don't give me crap about the fact that I started wearing foundation at 10.
I have severe acne ever since I was 9 and got tired of looking at it so I decided I needed some foundation.
I am getting very tired of my bareminerals because I do have to reapply after PE and everthing like that.
My skin is extremely red ALL THE TIME.
It is very sensitive to the sun because I am on menocycline and tretinoin for my acne.
My skin is clearing up, which is very good :) but I still am looking for a good foundation.
I have extremely oily skin, and I have acne all along my T zone.
My current face routine consists of:
- Neutrgoena oil free SPF 45 sunblock
- revlon colorstay blemish concealer
- bare minerals foundation in light and medium beige, I mix them
- mineral veil
- Blush
- Bronzer

I do keep my makeup looking natural so don't freak that i wear too much because I honestly don't.
I let my natural skin show, but it does embaress me.
I have a lot of issues with my appearance because my skin is so bad.
I love myself, don't get me wrong I am not some girl who puts herself down all the time, I just will NOT leave the house unless I have foundation on.
Anyways, I was looking to try a good liquid foundation.
Just to try but I still don't want to waste my money.
I need something that will last through my school day which is usually from about 7:00 - 5:30 and something that won't melt off during my hour and a half of PE.
I was looking into two options so far...
The Rimmel London stay matte foundation with skinpure complex (salicylic acid for my acne)
and also the Revlon Colorstay Foundation for oily/combo skin.
Idk, any thoughts, options?
Recomendations?
I was thinking about just mixing my foundation in with my moisturizer because I don't want it to look too cakey; I see girls walking around all the time that look so fake its ridicuous.
Anyways, I am looking for something that won't really break me out, that will last all day, and isn't too cakey that will look natural and stay matte for most of the day.
I am a makeup addict.
So don't be afraid to tell me about different MAC brushes you recomend or stuff like that, if you think I should stipple with the 187 or blend with the 109, if you think I need a face primer like Photofinish Light anything, just give me advice, please, I need it!
Haha, liquid foundation intimidates me!
Thanks.
Ok... umm
No.
I asked a question about foundation.
And for your info acne scarring isn't caused by makeup it is caused by severe cysts or nodules that you pop.
And even IF my acne goes away my skin would still look like crap!
It's not like just because I wouldn't have 3-D bumps my skin would be all perfect and glorious.
