How much do you apply? When you apply foundation, aim for evening out your skin tone instead of covering up imperfections. That's what concealer's for.

Caking up has to do with a lot of things

- too much product
- skin hot well prepped
- not blended
- using wrong tool for blending
- wrong foundation for your skin type
- not letting foundation before layering

The peach fuzz on your face, (the invisible hairs) can cling to the powder and foundation sometimes making make up look cakey.
