And I have a lot of stuff. But I have noticed that a bunch of people are opting for paraben free makeup, and when people have allergic reactions ti makeup it is usually because of the parabens. I was wondering if anyone has built a kit around mostly paraben free or if many people are asking for it.

And another thing, i know that for photos you shouldn't use makeup with SPF in it. And eyeshadow should be matte. So why is there so many "professional" makeup artist using mac foundations with spf and all sorts of glittery eyeshadows?? I know that the glitters work for some certain things but I really don't get the big thing with mac being for professionals when most of their foundations have spf in it??

i read in allue all hte time in the makeup credits for the pics what foundatins they are using and they are almost always brands that have spf so it must only be certain flash settings or something that cause the whiteout ??

I am not sure if this is true but apparently, its not so much the SPF in foundations that causes the white cast as opposed to either the wrong color match or the "cheap" ingredients from drugstore makeup. I personally LOVE drugstore makeup, this is just something I hear in a video from the makeup artist behind Give Good Face. I'm sure you can find the video on youtube where he mentions it!

I've heard it has to do with the HD makeup. Like of you use HD concealer under your eyes, it can cause whiteout under your eyes in pictures.
