The Revlon Colourstay and Photoready are fab and not that expensive!

It should also be noted that Pro Lumiere was discontinued last year and replaced with Perfection Lumiere. I'm not sure I'd recommend regular Photoready for use in a kit, if only because of the light-reflecting particles (or whatever it is) in it. Not good for an oily skin. (The mousse version may be okay, though.) Colorstay would work for a kit, though.

I wouldn't recommend PhotoReady, but Colorstay is a fabulous foundation. I would also recommend Armani foundations. They photograph gorgeous.

You can buy Makeup For Ever at Guru Makeup Emporium in London (they also have a website - gurumakeupemporium.com). As for Armani ~ http://www.giorgioarmanibeauty.co.uk/ (Perhaps it's in one of the UK department stores as well?)
