5-Minute Skincare Routine to Reduce Makeup Clumping ✨ Board: Beauty Routine Board

Lately, my base makeup has been flaking and highlighting dry patches, so I tried changing my skincare routine. Instead of buying new products, I adjusted the order and amount, and the adherence has improved significantly.

In the past, I used to layer toner multiple times and apply a generous amount of essence, but I found that my skin became excessively moisturized before makeup, causing the foundation to cake. So, I boldly reduced the number of steps and switched to a method that allows sufficient time for absorption.

Step 1: After cleansing, soak a cotton pad with toner and gently wipe your face like a wipe-off toner. The key is to use it only once, without layering it multiple times.

Step 2: Apply a very thin layer of moisturizer to prep the skin surface. It is important to spread it thinly, as applying it too thickly can cause it to pill.

Step 3: Just before applying makeup, lightly spray the mist all over your face and gently pat it in with your hands to help with absorption. This process significantly improves the adherence of your base.

Since making these changes, my makeup has stayed much cleaner until the afternoon, and caking has noticeably decreased. You can definitely feel the difference just by changing your routine, without having to switch products, so I recommend this to anyone struggling with makeup creasing 💗
