We recommend Jane Iredale which is pure mineral and excellent for all skin types.
For your acne scarring you should consider IPL photofacials for pigmented spots and/or laser skin resurfacing to treat pock mark or ice pick scars.

Mineral makeup not only replenishes minerals to the skin but also has the added advantage of a natural sun screen. Some brands are sold at many of the medical spas and skin care centers. You may consider a makeup lesson targeted toward minimizing the appearance of scars. If your budget allows, consider skin resurfacing. Many medspas are offering holiday specials and gift certificates. Dropping a hint to the right person struggling for a gift idea may go a long way.
