Do any of you ever try to take a picture of your makeup in the bathroom and then the lighting just makes your skin look yellow? This happens to me a lot!

All the time. Specially if you don't use front camera. I think you know what I mean.

Your front camera is the worst one on your phone, doesn't matter what type of phone it is. You would either need to change your bathroom lights to be whiter OR if you have a digital camera use the flash BUT use a flash bounce so your face isn't washed out. Like here I look yellow.

The front camera is always going to be the worst on a phone, doesn't matter if you have an iphone or a galaxy, unless you get an actual camera lens for your camera (Photojojo.com has them as iphone photography is a thing now). Bathroom lights are generally a horrid yellow color. You would either need whiter lights or a digital camera with a flash and a flash bounce. Like this is me with just the bathroom lights, I look super yellow.

Erin, do you use an actual flash bounce or have you made your own?

Just use natural lighting. Natural lighting or white light is the best type of lighting to have.

Actual flash bounce, but they're easy to make.
