    Not only does mineral veil make my under-eyes look crepey, it also combines with the foundation powder to give my face an orange tint. Seperately, neither product does this. Don't fork out the...

    i hate mineral veil, and i hate how they give you a huge jar of it with all of the kits because it's impossible to use up. i used this for a long time just because i had so much of it, but i've...

    I still buy the Mineral Veil even though I stopped using the foundation. I like the 'dewy' look it gives me after i put my foundation on. I actually started using the Feather Light Mineral Veil...

    I apply this translucent powder to set my make up and and eliminate shine without looking too matte. I wouldn't say it gives you a glow, but a subtle dewiness. I also wear this with confidence...

    I use to put this product over the other bare escentuals mineral foundation to keep the shiney look at bay. But this mineral veil just adds to the shine. Not a favorite.

    I like Mineral Veil, but it is 90% cornstarch, and way overpriced. Take your favorite loose powder and mix a tiny bit into some cornstarch and dust on the same way you swirl tap and buff Mineral...

    This is a good powder to set your foundation BUT then again you have to becareful on not over doing it because it will look cakey....overall is OK - I dont think I will be repurchasing it.

    I love this product because it keeps my face from getting shiny throughout the day. I apply it before and after the face powders and it's worked wonderfully for me. When I only put it on after, I...

    I like this as a setting powder and I also use this as a primer since I'm super oily. I haven't figured out my whole mineral routine yet since I've been using liquid foundation for maybe 3 years. I...

    I kinda feel like this is over-hyped. It made my normal skin look dry and flaky! There are better products out there, and for $21, it's also over priced.

    I use this in combination with the foundation and the warmth. I think it settles and smooths out the foundation and warmth, but I'm not sure if it prevents oilyness. I still get oily throughout the...

    This stuff has got to be the most overhyped product out there, Granted I have normal skin and don't have to worry about oil but honestly, it's just a regular powder to set your makeup, and for...

    On the positive side, this stuff really keeps my oily skin at bay. I mean I have really REALLY oily t-zones and this stuff kept me matte. It sets my foundation, and stays matte throughout the day....

    Don't like it, as others have said, it dries out your skin so bad. May feel silky and smooth but it makes your skin look so gross. This was my first mineral veil and probably my last. Trust me,...

    Wow, this dries out my skin terribly (even though my tzone gets very oil). It doesn't set my makeup extremely well either. It doesn't change the color of your makeup as its translucent, but it...

    Love this stuff - it really pulls your look together and makes your skin look luminous, not discoball-ish as long as you use the right amount. My only complaint is the extreme care you need to...

    As just a finishing powder, mineral veil does its job. It gives a smooth glowy finish. I just started using it and am a little scared of using it too often because I've read the horror stories...
