I am looking for face makeup that looks good in pictures with no flashback. It seems no matter what I try I always get flashback. I'm not sure if it's my foundation or powder. I'm graduating in 2 weeks and would really like some good pictures! Tia☺️☺️

What powder do you use?

I've tried Rimmel stay matte, it cosmetics bye bye pores (loose), elf HD loose powder, tarts smoothe operator loose powder and the pressed.

The elf HD loose powder is silica, silica can give really bad flashback, it's meant to be used as a finishing powder but a lot of people use it as a setting or touch up powder and use waaayyyy too much.
If you have more normal to dry skin then you really need to spray it with a misting spray. Powders tend to darken a tad when the skins oils mix with it and using a mixing spray helps achieve that if you don't have much oil and in some cases it can help prevent some flashback.
I'm not familiar with the foundation you use but if you do want to try a new foundation here are a few.
MUFE Ultra HD foundation which is good for normal, combination skin.
MAC prolongwear nourishing waterproof is good for normal to oily skin.
MUFE Ultra HD stick foundation is good for dry skin.
As for powder, just try to use less of the HD powder or skip it altogether and maybe try a talc based powder being sure to just spritz it with some misting spray

Rcma or estee edit by estee lauder flash photo powder it is amazing and made for photos I tried it on a whim and really love it I use a light dust of rcma under my eyes to set my concealer and this powder to set the rest of my face after my makeup is complete (:

I agree with Aurora, you're probably using too much powder.
Also, I suggest the Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Powder. I've been photographed with flash using that powder and didn't experience any flashback.
SPF does not cause flashback, that's a common misconception that's been discussed many times on here, so I wouldn't be too concerned as to what SPF your foundation has.

Very natural when it comes to styles, get a good powder and don't overdue eyebrows.
