What am I doing wrong I need help putting makeup on

Question

I don’t know what I’m doing wrong i moisturizes and prime before putting on foundation and it still ends up looking cakey and patchy goes down hill when I put on my pressed powder and loose powder just makes it worse maybe the products aren’t mixing well together or I’m putting on wrong

Answer

Ok I’ve been struggling FOR MONTHS!!! The only upside from quarantine was being able to play around with makeup. No matter what primer I used, or foundation, it looked so bad, flakey, you name it. I bought maybelline bb cream and it changed my makeup game! It’s called “dream bb fresh.”

Answer

I can't use heavy foundations because they almost always look cakey/heavy. I just don't care for the look or feel of it sitting on my face. I think primer can also be a culprit because some primers don't mesh well with certain foundations. I honestly stick to light-medium foundations. They never feel heavy. I have 3 in my rotation. For the summer/spring, I use a pressed powdered foundation. Like all powdered foundations, be diligent. They hold up best for me in the humid months. For the winter/fall, I use a quality CC cream (I like IT)  or a light-medium foundation. I like Physician's Formula healthy glow foundation. It doesn't cake on me & is buildable.
