Here are 4 common reasons that happens:
1. Poor skin prep
If the skin is dry, oily, or not moisturized properly, foundation won’t sit smoothly.
2. Mixing incompatible products
For example, using a silicone-based primer with a water-based foundation can cause separation.
3. Too much product
Layering too much foundation, concealer, or powder can make the base crack or look heavy.
4. Oily skin / excess oil production
Natural oils can break down makeup over time, especially without proper setting.
It could also be:
- Wrong skincare before makeup
- Not allowing products to dry between layers
- Using old products or dirty brushes
A flawless base starts before foundation 🤎
