Makeup clinging to dry patches not matter what?

Our take

Hey everyone! I’m reaching out because my makeup has taken a turn for the worse over the last six months. No matter what I do, it clings to dry patches, flakes, and disappears almost instantly after application. I’ve been doing my makeup for years, so this sudden change is baffling. I’m sharing my skincare prep and makeup routine to see if anyone can spot what I’m missing. Help me reclaim my flawless glow—because right now, I feel like I'm in a makeup horror story!

Hey everyone. So the last 6months or so, my makeup looks HORRIBLE. It clings to dry skin, flakes, and separates almost INSTANTLY after applying. I actually look worse with makeup now. It also literally disappears??? You can see in the photos that it didn’t cover up my pimples, even tho when I first did it, they were covered.

I’m like wtf am I doing wrong. Especially bc I have been doing my makeup for YEARS, never had this problem before. It started outta nowhere and is just getting worse and idk if it’s my skin, product, techniques, or everything in between.

I’ve tried EVERYTHING so can someone help me out and tell me what I’m missing? For example: I’ve added a pic of my makeup. This was taken 10min after application. Here’s all the exact steps I did before

Skincare / prep

- washed faced with hydrating cleanser

- exfoliate (Purito Seoul exfoliator pads)

- milky toner/ essence

- serum

- eye cream

- Moisturizer

- charlotte tillbury Luminous glow face cream

I waited 10 min to let everything absorb like ppl suggested, then went in with makeup. I DID use a primer (hydrating one) and I let that sit for about 1-2min before anything else

Foundation (used a damp sponge, wrung out all the excess water)

Concealer (just on pimples)

Coverage Powder (light dusting)

Added some bronzer and blush to give more warmth

to my face. Did setting spray also
