Troubleshooting

Foundation looks cakey or heavy.

Ensure skin is well-prepped and moisturized. Use less product and blend thoroughly. Consider using a brush for application instead of the sponge for a lighter feel.

Product is not mattifying effectively.

Ensure the skin is completely dry before application. Reapply a light layer to areas with excess oil.

Application streaks or is uneven.

Use a clean, damp sponge or a dense brush. Blend outwards from the center of the face. Ensure the product is evenly distributed on the applicator before applying.

Shade appears too light or too dark.

Skin tone can vary. Consider the undertones when selecting a shade. If a shade is slightly off, it might be possible to adjust with bronzer or concealer.
