Wedding foundation dilemma - please help!!?


I love mineral makeup because of the gorgeous glow given by the bismuth oxychloride. However, I am getting married, and I know that the titanium dioxide and zinc oxide in all MMUs creates that ghostly effect on your face when it reflects the flash from photography. Also, I know that any glow tends to look greasy in pics. But I do want a nice glow in my photos if possible, not just matte. And I certainly don't want that ghostly effect! Does anyone know of a foundation that gives a nice glow in photographs, and that won't make me look like a ghost??? I'm not attached to mineral makeup, any foundation will do! I've been searching the internet up, down, and even sideways, and am getting desperate - please help! I should mention that the wedding and reception will all be indoors, but there will also be a few outdoor shots. Thanks in advance!!

Also, if anyone can clarify about the titanium dioxide/zinc oxide issue - do both of these cause the ghostly effect? I know for sure the TD does, uncertain about ZO. And does it still have that effect if both/either are present only in low quantities, or are low quantities okay? Thanks!

I think MAC makes a good foundation for photographs ...You can also buy like a shimmer to go under your foundation that will give your face a glow. But I would check with MAC because it seems I have read somewhere that they do have a foundation that photographs well. I use Giorgio Armani and it does really well in photographs ....

Good Luck ~ Best Wishes ~~

MAC even has a bridal page with different looks on their website ...also they have a chat live with a makeup artist that might be able to help you with your questions.

Clinique tinted moisturizer gives you a natural look & flawless. I love it!

i think u should still wear the same foundation and use a bronzing powder on top. lloreal paris glam bronzer (colour 04 soleil universel the darker shade! dont panick its nicer then the lighter shade!)it doesnt give u the orange effect its perfect. apply with a large blusher brush. i would also oppt for a spray tan to give u all over glow!!

UK-boots 拢10 (lloreal bronzer!)

hope that helped and have a nice wedding day!! xx

Revlon colourstay.. does what it says on the tin and stays on... All day, just what you need for you wedding... no need to reapply for the reception!
