Drugstore.com doesn’t help with the ingredients

Foundations with SPF are useless anyway because a strength of 15-20 isn’t going to protect you. Might as well use an SPF 30 or higher under your regular foundation.

I won’t be using it as a sunblock I have my own sublock to take care of it. I was looking at buying a foundation but it says SPF on it and I don’t want to spend my money on something and have the pictures turn out crummy.

If the SPF is really high, it does tend to give a white cast. BUT I once used an SPF 90 and had pictures taken with it and it was fine in flash photography. I dont know if it’s because my skin is on the light side or because I had rubbed it in very well. One product which gives me a white cast is when I use the MAC Studio Finish Concealer which has an SPF of 30-35 but then again, I buy 1 shade lighter anyway for imperfections so when I dont buff it in well enough it does look lighter in flash. I always top it with a matte powder which helps.

So you reckon if I just finished with a powder the SPFness of it would be minimized?
