    So, my debs is next week and I'm worried that I'll look too pale in the photos. I'm quite pale usually but I will have tan on and was looking at Mac's Face and Body foundation but don't know what shade will make me look normal in the pictures and not like a ghost! Any suggestions :)

    No SPF is important for flash photographery, and certain powders will also be an issue (HD powders for example and meant to be bad). Use the matching foundation shade to your skin and use bronzer to go darker. From what I've heard mac F&B should be good for photography, but I've not used it myself

    Don't go with Estee Lauder Double Wear unless you want a ghost looking back at you from the pictures! :)

    Mac Face & Body should be fine.

    I absolutely love the Mac Pro-longwear waterproof foundation.

    Stays put and photographs beautifully. A bit pricey, but keep it for your nights out :) I wore it to a wedding two weeks ago, had it on for 20 hours and it was still fairly decent by the end of the night. :P

    Has anyone tried the Revlon Photo foundation? I am an Estee user but always end up with a pale face and different color neck¡
