I am sorry for blowing the posts up with questions ladies, but I am three weeks from the big day so I am full of last minute questions. My photographer says to avoid mineral makeup because it reflects light (or something of that nature) and does not look good in photographs. I left my MUA a message to make sure she has a foundation that wont do this, but I need a translucent powder for touch ups during the day. I was originally going to buy MUFE HD powder but I saw these celeb pictures and heard it was MUFE so I am a little hesitant. What should I use for touch ups?

Also- planning on using the HourGlass veil mineral primer to help waterproof my skin a little, is this a bad idea? I want to look good in photos but my skin gets shiny really quick without a matte finish.

Here is the powder-http://www.sephora.com/hd-microfinish-powder-P210400?skuId=1510247

And the scary picture! Ahhh!!! Scary ghost!

I LOVE hourglass primer and tinted moisturizer! I also heard this about mineral makeup from my photographer and MUA. My MUA only does airbrush, so that's one way to avoid the mineral makeup. She does use a powder to set the makeup and doesn't have the reflective ingredient. I emailed her to ask the brand, so ill let you know what she says!

I have a super shiny T-zone. I always use Urban Decay De-slick in a tube. I love it. Maybe you could try a mattifier?
