Why Your Foundation Doesn't Look Good

Have you ever wondered why your favorite foundation looks great one day and horrible the next? There are so many contributing factors to this, but I am going to share with you some of my tips and tricks to avoid the cakey look, patchiness, and even how to apply bronzer and blush to look seamless on the skin. It's not about the products, it's all in application and I can't wait to show you! Thank you so much for watching! I truly appreciate you! Much love, Cat xoxo

Thanks Cat! Those are great tips. I’ve been mixing Elf’s Halo Glow often with my foundation for a little extra 🌟 and have also started using a setting spray. You’re definitely right about spending a bit more time to press your foundation in. It makes such a difference in how it wears. Have a fantastic and restful Christmas with your family. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@ClaraBarrerabeautyisageless55]

Hi Cat, your makeup looks stunning and natural. Great tips, I agree a brush is so much better with a foundation, if I use a sponge sometimes the foundation just sits on top of my skin. The only tip I have is when I want my makeup to last long, at the end of all the makeup application I lightly spray a large powder brush with setting spray, I and lightly dab it all over my face. Thank you for sharing these tips with us. Have a Blessed and Merry Christmas, hugs, xoxo

[@crushedVelvet71]

My problem with foundation is that I can never find the right shade for my skin. That and I can never make it look right. Thanks for the tips, now I just need to find the right foundation!

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

Omg, @crushedVelvet71 ❤️ I totally understand! Should I do a video on finding the right shade and undertones for us? Let me know! Thank you so much for watching, my beautiful friend! Much love, Cat xoxo ✨️ 🎁 🥰 🙏 🎄

Hi Cat, l love all my foundation l use, because I get mine from Mac, but l don't use Mat foundation anymore, because it leaves it cakes sometimes, so l get the hydration ones all the times, l leave my skin care on for 1 hour now, because I find when I do that, my foundation and my makeup looks flawless all day, hugsssss ❤❤❤

Great tips Cat, and a beautiful look! Merry Christmas to you and the family!❤🎄❤

Some great tips, Cat! I am a primer convert, but I haven't tried the powder tip, but I will now! Have a wonderful Christmas week ❤❤🎄🎄🎄🎄❤❤❤❤

[@karlaharvey2623]

Great tips Cat and a great reminder to me to take the time to blend. I also find it even more helpful to use a hydrating setting spray to melt my powder and everything else together. You look so pretty. Love your eye look. 😊. Have a very merry Christ~ Mas. 😊

[@janettanaka2894]

Hi Cat….thank you for reminding us to give our skin care and sun screen and primer time inbetween to absorb properly into our skin. It does make a difference as your foundation was flawless. I don’t wear foundation but back when I tried, my issue was trying to find the correct shade, undertones etc. I sometimes will use a skin tint as it’s way more forgiving in color. The Canada Post strike is over as of last week …for now as the Govt forced them back to work. I immediately mailed you a card but I honestly don’t know when you’ll receive it with the backlog they have to get through. Wishing you, Matt & Ava a beautiful Christmas 🎄 and peace, love and joy in the New Year 🎊 😊🇨🇦

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

Hello, my very dear friend, @janettanaka2894 🥰 oh yes, skincare is so important prior to makeup! I'm so happy the Canadian post strike is over! I can't even fathom the backup, delays, and frustration! I'll certainly be curious to see how long it'll take to receive your Christmas card! I'll definitely keep you "posted!" 😁 From my family to yours, I hope you have a blessed and Merry Christmas! Sending hugs to you in Canada 🇨🇦 Much love, Cat xoxo ✨️ 🎁 🥰 🙏 🎄

[@jenn8459]

For the longest time I couldn't get my $68 CAD Nars Longwear Radiant to work. I finally figured out to use an extremely moisturizing cream first & very little product (maybe 1/2 a pump) 😃😀

Hi Cat, that's how l learned to do my makeup years ago, always blending it after you put the powder on, and then l spray it with setting spray Charlotte Tilbury setting spray, and my lipsticks is also Charlotte Tilbury lipsticks and lip glosses too, hugsssss ❤❤❤

Might take longer, but I am wanting to follow the advice. Especially with the bronzer. I have seen this used with such awful results that I do not use it. I hope I can do it as well as you..

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

Yes! You got this @karenmiller6258 🥰 bronzer is definitely challenging to look "natural," but I think if you take your time in application, it really makes a difference! Thank you so much for watching! Much love, Cat xoxo ✨️ 🎁 🥰 🙏 🎄

Cat have you tried the Jones Road What the foundation?? I’m seeing it all over the ads

[@CatsEyeBeauty]

Hello @pnevlud ✨️ I haven't, but I've tried the Miracle Balm from Jones Road and several other of her products, and I didn't care for it 😅 it felt heavy on my skin and quite greasy. 😬 It's all over my ads, too! Should I give it a try?! Thank you so much for suggesting this! Much love, Cat xoxo ✨️ 🎁 🥰 🙏 🎄

Loli wish I had 30 minutes to wait between skin prep.and make up application!! I usually have about 5 minutes in the morning g to do everything!😂
