Hi okay so I just bought a new foundation ( fit me matte + poreless ) and I tried it and seemed a perfect match for my skin tone. The problem is that when I use flash it looked a bit light on me. Is there any tips that y'all might have? Thank you 💜

This is a really good video on flashback :) https://youtu.be/JWaC1LWA0pc
It can just be the bright light from flash as well. Depending on how close you are to it. Think of how if you move closer to a lamp, you will have more light casted on you than being on the other side of the room.

I have never heard of talc causing flashback. I have that foundation as well and looking at the ingredients I would guess it's the titanium dioxide, which is one of the culprits in spf that causes flashback, or the silica which can often cause flashback on its own.
And like alyx said, it may not be flashback but just the effect of a brighter light focused on your face.
