    I got this in a smaller jar -- it came with the gift of giving collection. I generally love bare minerals - foundation, shadows, blushes, allover face colors. I haven't touched my other powders in...

    I bought the Bare Escentuals kit online from Sephora's website. I had seen the infomercials and was really desperate for a good foundation. Well the foundations sucks as* but I kept this mineral...

    It's a nice white finishing powder to wear over your mineral powder foundation to set it up, but I noticed that doesn't help oily skins reduce oilness, also it's not as smooth as Everyday Minerals...

    I had high hopes for this product but it made my face look pale and overly made up. It added a shimmer which looked highly un-natural. It was also extremely messy.

    Before I used to touch up my skin every two hours, now after switching to the BE foundation and using the Mineral Veil I can go from 7 - 17 without worrying about makeup sliding! Oil is the reason...

    Looks like a layer of dust over my skin, no matter what I do! The stuff clings to the tiny peach fuzz that covers ones face and looks tacky. Sad stuff :(

    I'm so surprised that everyone doesn't absolutely love this! I wear it over my B.E. makeup; this is my last step in my makeup routine. It really sets my makeup, helps (a little) to control any...

    I could take this or leave it.... I use it because I have it but I really don't think it makes much difference. I have dry skin so I try not to use any extra powder.

    i think this stuff is ok. its just a cover up if you use mineral powder. i suggest you get something cheaper if you need extra powder. the color is light, and it doesnt cover anything up. it mostly...

    I have combo skin and this stuff looks like I brushed a fine dusting of flour on my face. In the container this feels like air, but it emphasized every single peach-fuzz hair I have on my face. ...

    Upon reading the reviews, and with my own humble opinion, I think it's safe to say that the Mineral Veil works best for those with oily skin. I religiously put it on everyday because it "sets" my...

    I bought this in the starter set with quite high expectations. But actually, all this product does it set into the little lines and creases in your face. It cakes up easily and gives a very obvious...
