Powder foundation

How do you use a powder foundation without looking cakey

Re: Powder foundation

Hi! I would say it depends on the brand and texture of the powder foundation, but here's my general advice. I would use more of a silky finish primer, rather than one with a tacky finish. I would also use a larger, fluffy brush and swirl lightly in the powder if it's a pressed powder, or tap a light amount onto the brush if it's a loose powder. I would advise buffing it onto the skin without too much pressure, making sure to really blend everything together. If it still looks a tad cakey, I would try not a setting spray, but a finishing spray like Mac Fix+, which will help everything come together.
