What a long way foundation and concealer etc. has come since 2009! It used to be that finding a nice, non-cakey full coverage concealer was only a high end cosmetic option. Nowadays you can get great drugstore options. Back in 2009, not a whole lot of people were using face primer. The face primers that were available were usually silicone primers. (Remember when Monistat Anti-Chaffing Gel was all the rage as an inexpensive option for a face primer?)
In 2009, I was using Clinique because I thought I was having allergies to my makeup and my makeup sponges. It turns out I was allergic to shrimp & crustaceans in general. I do not use Clinique anymore because they test on animals.
The KVD Lock-It Foundation has a learning curve as do most high coverage foundations. Less is more with a foundation like this. When people complain about cakiness with this and other high coverage foundations, it's usually because they are using WAY too much. At the very most -- you only need ONE pump. Use a non-silicone primer and some face mist to help the foundation spread better. You can even mix some of the primer with half a pump of foundation if you would like sheerer coverage (no need to get a separate foundation for that). I use a nice dense brush with all of my foundations.
The same principle goes for high coverage concealer. Slathering on high coverage concealer leads to cakiness and creasing. Less is more.
