Flashback is caused by light bouncing off your face — and your primer, foundation or setting powder could be the culprit. Common ingredients in makeup, such as silica and those containing SPF (like titanium dioxide and zinc oxide), can reflect the light from your camera, causing that dreaded white cast.
Now, no need to panic: You don't have to avoid these ingredients altogether (in fact, you shouldn't, especially not the SPF). So, what's a girl to do? First, start out by testing the products in question and experiment with decreasing the amounts you apply.
What if you don't have to time to make a test run? Well, primers are your secret weapon when it comes to being selfie-ready. Here are five makeup primers that are safe for flash photography — and your next selfie.
