    Default foundation turns white in the blacklight

    I use mac studiofix, and lancome foundation ....and parts of my face seem to turn whiter then normal in the blacklight. Does anyone have any advice on what i should do?


    I use the foundation just for work to even my complexion out for the blacklights, but it doesnt seem to be working too well!

    Some foundations just do that. In fact... some even turn purple! I'm guessing it has to do with the pigments or opacifiers used. I switched to the Nars foundation and have had no problems. I look very natural and even in blacklight.

    Another one to watch out for since it glows *really* bad is the Estee Lauder "perfectionist" line of care products. Oh, and the Prescriptives highliters. I take a handheld blacklite (the battery operated ones) shopping with me when I search out new products.
