I use a very good coverage under eye concealer but it always ends up looking cakey and settling into my lines. I use a moisurizer and primer before, then BB cream and power after, How can I fix this?

Same problem, I am starting to think my face will never find the right concealer and foundation.

Use a bb stick! Just roll on one layer and then dab concealer gently.

@karissa have you ever tried a color correcting concealer?

After your apply the concealer, WAIT about 5 minutes for everything to set. THEN apply your powder. Do your brows or eyeshadow in the mean time lol. Letting your base set first makes a better looking finish. Hope I helped :)

Is there any way to fix this problem with the makeup I already have? I just bought new makeup and I'm a poor college student :( I have other concealers, but they all do the same

@preeti no I have not, but the coverage isn't the problem, it's the settling. Would that make a difference? I'm so clueless when it comes to makeup, haha. But if you need to know about hair, I'm your girl!! ;)

@kaitlin I have actually done that the last couple days. Maybe I am just doomed!

I just re-read your first post. Put on the bbcream first! Concealer second. Wait. Then powder. :))

Tap the concealer into your skin with your ring finger.

Maybe you are applying too many products? just try primer, concealer and powder.. I'm just guessing but you may try :)

Maybe try putting the concealer on after you finished everything else. And then set it with a powder. Possibly try a liquid concealer, I used a concealer crayon and it made it look cakey and kind of dry under my eye, so I switched to a liquid concealer.

It maybe that you are using to much and putting it in the wrong place. It does take time to get it right. I know you don't want to buy more products but it will make a difference if you use something like an undereye illuminator concealer. I use one by rimmel and the garnier eye role on and I get better results than a normal concealer (I find that these are a bit heavy under the eye) Also watching vids on youtube will help you to learn some new techniques to try out. Good luck.

Oops sorry just read that you are already using an under eye concealer (:

Thanks ladies. I will try using less products

Maybe try using a damp sponge like the beauty blender. It may take away the excess product but keep your undereye covered. :)

Yesterday I put my BB cream on lightly, then my concealer, let it set while I did my eye makeup then finished with powder. It definitely didn't look cakey!!

Try using a silicone based primer because it will fill in any fine lines or creases before you even apply the concealer
