Cracking makeup

I have combo skin and my makeup cracks beneath my nose, cakey on my cheeks, and makes my forehead wrinkles stick out (I'm 23 but just have an expressive face haha). I use Clinique moisturizer and toner, use primer, set with urban decay for oily skin. Any tips?? Thanks!

Re: Cracking makeup

If you're makeup is cakey and cracking, that's a good sign your skin is parched. Your foundation may be too drying for your skin. Your moisturizer may not be enough. The cakiness is usually a sign that you are applying too much foundation or product at once. I don't know for sure, as I don't know your full routine, but these are a few popular causes. You say you set with Urban decay, if you mean their powder, I would give another powder a try, as some powders can make you look very old and dry if it doesn't play well with your skin.
