    I like the BE Mineral Veil because it is so soft and cool going on. I do realize that it is pretty much tinted cornstarch, (among other important ingredients i am sure)but it really works soaking...

    I have to say Mineral Veil as a loose powder is a great product for the price. I use it as my loose powder by itself with a kabuki brush even though I don't use the foundation powder with it. The...

    I have large pores and fine lines and I feel that this product accentuated them. It DID do a good job of blending my makeup and "smoothing everything" but the slight shimmer just emphasized my...

    I've got this in Gossamer, which's a pretty translucent shade with subtle shimmers. It gave me a radiant glow & the texture's so light that i barely noticed it on my own face! It was a freebie...

    I don't care for this line, and don't care for the Mineral Veil. It's got a funky texture that I can't quite describe but can't forgive. It certainly makes my skin feel soft, buy my hands feel...

    I have re-purchased this a few times now, but my feelings about it are mixed. The first thing I'd like to say is this: I wear contacts, and it seems to irritate my eyes. Also, if you use too much,...

    I don't know how BE does it. I put this powder on my skin and it looks like I'm being shot through a camera filter. My skin is smooth and silky and stays that way throughout the entire day. It...

    My Holy Grail of powders, I wouldn't be a day without this! It absorbs all of my oil, limits my blotting breaks, and really makes me glow. The packaging is a hassle though, and i have wasted half...

    I love the whole bareMinerals line. I seem to use a lot of the Mineral Veil and run out of it faster than any other of the products. I have oily, blemish-prone (during my period) skin that is...

    When I was younger, I used to slap on loose powder – any kind, from good old CornSilk to Lancôme Poudre Majeur – all over my face with a huge powder puff. Now I use the lightest touch with the...

    My skintype: on my notepad. I really like this loose powder. While most people use it as a finish-off over the BE foundations I wear it alone. It gives a polished and slight glowy look. Perfect...

    I kind of like this product. It does what it says it's going to do, but to me it feels heavy. Not as heavy as say MAC foundation... but heavier than I thought it would. I'm not sure if I would buy...

    The Mineral Veil works just fine, it does what it say's it will do. However I'm giving this a low rating because of the price. Mineral Veil is pretty much just CORN STARCH.... the same stuff you...

    I'm not a big fan of this. When worn alone, it did help to even out my skin tone and give me a glowy look, but it made my skin itch. If I wore it over my BE foundation, I didn't really notice a...

    Excellent for giving you that airbrushed look after you've applied your foundation and blush. I have been using this for years and will continue to purchase.
