Probably one of the most common beauty faux pas, nobody wants to look caked with makeup. But if you need full coverage or have oily/combination skin, it can be a challenge, since typically heavier makeup is needed to cover up hyperpigmentation, and matte products help with oil issues. One easy tip? Once you set your face with powder, don't apply any liquid products on top. This can create the "cakey" effect you want to avoid. Although, we have learned that if you apply a little powder over a blemish, it can hold onto concealer better. Food for thought.
