I use Revlon Colorstay, its very thick. Any tips on how to not get it cakey? I apply in 2 layers, then let dry.

Why two layers?

If its really think then don't apply in 2 layers. Powder can make your foundation look cake, so instead try a setting spray if you need it to last longer. 1layer should be plenty especially since it is very heavy. if you need more coverage use a really good concealer instead of piling on foundation.

Don't use a powder and I really don't like concealer. The foundation covers really goog, but I need extra around my nose.

How do you apply it? I prefer using a stippling brush to give an airbrushed look and it helps with cakeyness.

Agree with Amanda T., Revlon colorstay is a very full coverage fdtn and I recommend you use a damp sponge to stipple it on, and one layer only. Use one light dusting of a good quality setting powder, NOT reapplying a mediocre one.

Depending on how you use your foundation. I agree with Vanessa W!
