    This product made my cheeks (where I apply the most bareMinerals) look a lot more natural and smoother. It definitely helped for more accurate coverage. For some reason, bareMinerals just makes my...

    Nothing to write home about. It did cut down on shine just a little, but I'm not usually super shiny anyway. The reason I got it is to hide the craters on my nose and it did not do the job. So back...
