Working with powder makeup can be quite tricky and a simple mistake can turn a look from flawless to overdone. There are a number of reasons why your powder makeup may be looking cakey and appear to be sitting on your face instead of blending in seamlessly with the rest of your products. From simply putting on too much to using the wrong color or a product with the wrong undertone, no matter what the reason for that cake face is, here are the top mistakes that can cause cake face and how to fix them.

Incorrect tools

One of the biggest things you need to realize is that certain tools are good for certain types of products. While a beauty blender sponge is amazing for blending out foundation and concealer, with a powder, it really gives you a lot of coverage which can often translate to the makeup looking cakey. If you are looking for something that looks more natural, a brush can be a better idea and it can help you dust the product lightly on the skin and give you a glow-y complexion. Another little hack is to use the powder puffs and pat on excess product to really mattify the skin and letting the powder warm up with your face before dusting it off. If you want your powder to really give you some coverage, one of the best ways to do this is to use a damp beauty blender and pack on the powder with it.
