No one wants a mismatched face, but it happens. Even I, myself, really don't like this - it's pretty obvious. Your makeup tends to look fine in natural lighting, but then when you take photos, things are suddenly very wrong. A lot of girls whom happens this to don't even realize it until when they look at their tagged photos, in Facebook and at that moment they're like, WHO IS THIS MESS?!

The reasons why it happens are few:

Number ONE: The powder that they're using might be mineral makeup, so it has natural SPF in it. And a lot of the times, this mineral makeup reflects light very easily. So when you take a photo and the flash goes off, suddenly that's all you're seeing - just this big reflection of powder.

Number TWO: They might be over-powdering and putting way too much on, when they only need to blot just a little bit around the places where their face tends to get oily.

Number THREE: They are using a silica-based powder, which is very white and very pigmented. Silica-based powders will also reflect light. These products absorb oil so well, which is why it happen to celebrities, it's most likely that they used a silica-based product in the hopes of keeping their oil in check throughout the night. In fact a lot of people apply too much, and you've got a flour powder mess.
