Why does makeup that looks fine in the morning become messy by the afternoon?
There are times when I put a lot of effort into my makeup in the morning while looking in the mirror, but then I get shocked when I see my face in the bathroom in the afternoon.
At home, my skin definitely looked good and there were no patchy spots.
However, when I looked in the mirror after lunch, the area around my nose was shiny, foundation was caked around my mouth, and my cheeks were patchy in places.
Especially in areas with a lot of movement, like the sides of the nose or the corners of the mouth, the makeup looks cracked, to the point where I wonder if it is really the makeup I applied in the morning.
At first, I thought the foundation didn't suit my skin, but I found that there were similar days even when using other products.
I really can't tell if it's because I'm applying too much skincare, or if, on the contrary, my skin is dry and causing more oil to come to the surface.
But you can't exactly remove all your makeup and redo it every afternoon, can you?
Sometimes it’s fine to just blot away the oil with blotting paper, but there are also cases where the foundation gets wiped off even more, so I have to be careful with that as well.
Is there anyone else like me whose makeup looks fine in the morning but falls apart by the afternoon?
I'm curious if the cause varies depending on skin type, and if there is a definite difference if I change the way I apply basic skincare products or base makeup.
I would like to hear about the experiences of those whose makeup stays flawless all day long and how they usually manage it.

- 01CommentsIt is possible that the highlighter surface is hardening due to the oil from your hands, a phenomenon known as "hard pan." It is said that lightly sticking and peeling off a piece of tape with weak adhesive on the surface can remove some of the hardened oil and powder. Please try testing it on the edge first.695526.10.19
