I love mineral makeup because of the gorgeous glow given by the bismuth oxychloride. However, I am getting married, and I know that the titanium dioxide and zinc oxide in all MMUs creates that ghostly effect on your face when it reflects the flash from photography. Also, I know that any glow tends to look greasy in pics. But I do want a nice glow in my photos if possible, not just matte. And I certainly don't want that ghostly effect! Does anyone know of a foundation that gives a nice glow in photographs, and that won't make me look like a ghost??? I'm not attached to mineral makeup, any foundation will do! I've been searching the internet up, down, and even sideways, and am getting desperate - please help! I should mention that the wedding and reception will all be indoors, but there will also be a few outdoor shots. Thanks in advance!!Also, if anyone can clarify about the titanium dioxide/zinc oxide issue - do both of these cause the ghostly effect? I know for sure the TD does, uncertain about ZO. And does it still have that effect if both/either are present only in low quantities, or are low quantities okay? Thanks!

I think MAC makes a good foundation for photographs ...You can also buy like a shimmer to go under your foundation that will give your face a glow. But I would check with MAC because it seems I have read somewhere that they do have a foundation that photographs well. I use Giorgio Armani and it does really well in photographs ....Good Luck ~ Best Wishes ~~http://www.maccosmetics.com/MAC even has a bridal page with different looks on their website ...also they have a chat live with a makeup artist that might be able to help you with your questions.

Everything About Your Wedding Wedding Marketplace Buy and sale all wedding related products. Where and How to Start? There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky! Wedding Invitation Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you. Wedding Attire Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire. Wedding Flowers Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost. Wedding Ceremony Decoration Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority... Wedding Music Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances. Wedding Photography Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day. Wedding Favors Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you... Wedding Food Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget. Wedding Cake Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition Wedding Party The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
