I am a huge fan of the shimmer mineral veil. I don't like foundations or any heavy makeup on my skin, and I'm never really too worried about coverage, so this light shimmer gives my face a beautiful glow so I keep looking natural, but just a bit more polished. Its a beautiful product and Ive been using it for about 5 years now. Maybe even longer. I originally bought the starter kit and fell in love with the mineral veil. its been in my makeup bag ever since!
This is a nice translucent poweder than helps set your makeup. It lasts a long time because you dont need to use a whole lot. Definitely worth trying if you've never used this before.
I have ultra sensitive pale skin. Saw an infomercial on this product years ago wanted to try it but it was only in the U.S. Finally got it & for sure it lives up to it's hype! It leaves my skin flawless on top of the foundation. If you need proof view my profile picture. It is also sweat-proof. Only thing I would definitely recommend is purchasing the actual Bare Escentuals brushes. I bought a way less expensive kabuki brush & it goes on a bit too cakey. Definitely it is worth trying out if you have sensitive skin. For a more affordable option, try buying the "starter kit" first. You get waaay smaller samples of the foundation& veil but get all the brushes. The only reason I didn't is because unfortunately the foundation in it doesn't come in my shade which is FAIR. Only comes in light. I have porcelain almost see-through skin.
For sure this is worth it if you want a natural organic makeup that looks like you don't have any on.
I love this product! It add a beautiful finish to you face. If you like a natural matte finish this is the way to go! I found that the amount of product you get lasts about 2 months maybe a little more depending on your usage.
I LOVE this stuff as a translucent powder.
It really sets your makeup, and absorbs oil (of course, it's a starch in there).
I do have to say, that you don't want to put on too much if you're a darker toned girl (above medium tones) because you're going to look ghostly and pasty white.
I have even been known to skip the brush in a rush, dip my fingers into the tub and smear it like a powder all over my forehead, nose and chin, and it works like a charm.
At the end of the day, I am definitely less oily than I should be. But it's a bit loose and messy, so it's not that great for the on-the-go touch ups in the work bathroom. I'd suggest a compact translucent powder for that.
