Did you know that if you wear a makeup foundation that has SPF of any kind in it and you have your photo taken something evil happens?
You get white face.
It's true. The light of the flash reflects off of the sunscreen causing you to look pale. Also, SPF in makeup bases are really just a buzz word. Usually any benefit from the small amount of protection that's added is diluted by the other elements in the product.
So, here is what you should really do: apply a moisturizer that has a SPF level that you need for your skin type, then a makeup primer with no SPF, and finally your SPF free foundation.
If you go shopping you'll most likely see that it's really very difficult to find a foundation that doesn't have any sunscreen in it's formula. But I did manage to find some on a trip to a local K-mart, I haven't been there in forever.
