I got this in my BE starter kit. I really dont get why people like this so much. I found that it felt gritty compared to other finishing powders that i have used. It also gives me a slightly pink...

Mineral Veil is a def. staple in my makeup routine. I use it over my BE in Medium Tan, and it does not lighten or change the color of my foundation. This sets my makeup perfectly, and minimizes my...

I use this translucent powder on top of my fairly light foundation to set my look. I buff it in with my kabuki brush. It does work well at setting your look and taking away any shine (if there was...

I use BE Fairly Light foundation and Mineral Veil (clear) on top of it, the foundation does a good job to cover color differences and impurities, but still it looks a bit dull. The moment I apply...

I've been using this as a setting/finishing powder for several years. Bare Escentuals is an excellent brand, and their marketing campaigns can't be beat. Leslie Blodgett is a doll and I love her...

Okay, I use to LOVE Bare Essentuals. Until I realized that it would fade within an hour of wear! Plus, the mineral veil is the worse (the one that comes with the starter kit). I use it to set my...

This is my winter powder. It's by no means perfect, but when my skin is drier than usual this won't dry it out even more. What it does do well is fill my pores. Unfortunately, if I get oily or...

I received this in a kit with matte foundation, moisturizer and face brush. I have to say that I don't have any real opinion on this. The matte foundation works fine by itself for me, so the...

When I first got into makeup I started using BareMinerals only because I had very acne prone skin as a teenager and thought that other foundations would break me out more. So I used it for about 3...

I often use this to set my foundation or my under eye concealer. Sometimes I use it alone and it looks good. Also good as like a blotting powder to remove shine.
