Just bought an rcma 5 part foundation palette in the shade KA, I have heard that it does not give flashback that's why I bought it for doing my wedding makeup but it gives horrible flashback, same as my usual foundation with spf! Please tell me why??

Longer distance, with horrible flashback.

Flashback will occur if an undiffused flash is closer than 6-8 feet away. Try it with a diffused flash or longer distance and see if you still have issues.

Agree, all foundations will do that if the flash is too close. If you're going to be taking photos that up close, you'd have to compensate for it by going half a shade darker.
I've done my friends make up for photography, and it has never flashed back. I've seen plenty of professional MUAs as well use it all the time in their work and zero flash back.

Yes, I agree with everyone else. Direct flash will always do that based on being too close.

Some cameras do it more than others. It may have to do with when the camera itself captures the picture. I've taken selfies with direct flash from my phone and didn't have any flashback so it depends on the camera.
