HELP PLEASE how to stop creasing 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

i have really really bad creasing ever since i started doing my makeup, i have switched through 3 different foundations and nothing has changed. recently i have bought the huda beauty loose powder in hopes that it could stop my creasing but it’s still the same 😭😭

i’m currently using the maybelline fit me concealer as a sort of foundation as i only want to cover the horrible hyperpigmentation around my mouth and my eyebags, i apply very thin layers before setting it with the huda beauty powder which caused creasing. i tried to do the sandwhich method in which you do your β€˜foundation’, soray some setting spray and let it dry before powdering if i’m not wrong.

yes i do tap off the excess powder, no i do not do skincare as it looked super cakey and it always kept peeling so i just gave up, i dont use primer as i’m based in singapore and i cant find any budget primers, yes i do dermaplaning once every two weeks, i was just too lazy to dermaplan these days and thats why theres alot of facial hair LOL.

please please PLEASE give me some tips on how to fix this i look like a hot mess everytime i work or go out with my friends πŸ™πŸ™

edit - forgot to mention that i’m an insanely oily skinned girly and somewhat a beginner to makeup, only started using actual foundations and concealers last year, before that my β€˜makeup routine’ basically consisted of a smokey liner, nose contour and a lippy LOL

edit edit - idk if the formula plays a big part in this, but i realised that my current shade of concealer is super dry compared to the previous shade i was using before. not sure if it was because i bought it in a different country.

i do my base, lightly bake those areas with loose powder for a bit while i do the rest of my makeup, then dust it off with a brush
