Do you rub it a lot on your skin? If you apply too much and rub it in it will have that effect. It can also be because it doesn't work well with the product you applied before this one. I hope this helps!

ohh yess, I tried not rubbing it but still got a bit grainy… I barely apply product so I think it might be the product I applied before. I’ll try changing the order and see how it goes! thank you :)
