I hate that my face comes out rlly pale in pictures even though I wear a very tan foundation! (In real life it looks normal but in pictures it comes off very very pale!!)
I know this has to do with the spf in the foundation but Inhave tried ones with no spf and still have the same issues.. Any recomendations?

Do you use a bronzer?

SPF has nothing to do with it, it's usually high concentrations of Mica and other light reflecting minerals that cause this type of flashback. I'd ask Jackie H what she recommends, as I have no real experience with foundations.

I ask because maybe with a little bronzer the foundation won't look as pale.

This happens to me everytime and I look like a ghost so I tried to avoid flashes! I would really love to know also why it does this or how to fix it :(

When you are taking pictures you should use slightly darker shade foundation than what you actually use... that's the only way I know.
