So I've tried using Revlon foundations, MUFE hd, hello flawless...and they were all giving me white cast in photos! I understand that sunscreens in makeup do this, but the foundations I've used have a small amount of spf, if any at all. Anyone else have this problem or know the solution?

Is there sunscreen in your moisturizer? Remover all sunscreen in anything going on your face for flash photos.

If there's mica in it it will cast the "glow".

Yes! Rimmel stay matte and bronzer... Could it be the stay matte powder? I use the translucent shade. My moisturizer has no spf.

Could be the translucent shade try a colored one in your shade? And Shay K is right! tissue in front of flash helps too! And Jacqueline H. Has great tips!:)

Remember that your neck and chest are usually 2 different shades naturally. ( different amount of melatonin ) so try to match your foundation to your neck area to make it "blend" naturally. Also if there are any reflectance in your foundation or moisturizer they will shine thru in photos
