Whenever I do my makeup, it ends up looking so cakey...sometimes like it has streaks, other times it looks like its "cracking apart".

Moisturize your face every morning and night, use a primer and a setting spray. If that doesn't change anything it looks like you need new face makeup!

Make sure you use a moisturizer and let it soak in for at least 5 minutes.
Try using a primer.
You might need a new foundation

Try to mix it with moistruizer and put it on thw back of your hand first. This will keep you from getting excess peoduct and smoothen application (with less coverage), therafore keeping the application natural.

If you are using powder possibly switch to liquid and if your using a powder over that remove the powder you are also probably applying to much at the beginning apply very little then apply more until your satisfied also the streeks come from your brush so go over your streeks with your fingers it gives it a natural look too.

If you use a foundation try to use as less as possible a little goes a long way. And if that doesn't work try a BB Cream I am in love with them. (Or a CC Cream) you can get them at rite aide
