This is a good, lightweight powder for those with oily skin that do not break out. Be warned that anything with corn starch can actually feed the bacteria that causes acne and make it worse....

I bought Mineral Veil solely to kill the shine on my face in the summertime when it is hot and humid. It does the trick but you have to be very sparing or you get a chalky look. I really don't...

Let me start off by saying I only use this on my eyes, not on the rest of my face. I could never wear eyeliner because my eyes are very deepset and my eyelids are oily. One day I tried putting the...

I hated this product and brought it back to Macy's in a hurry. It was chalky, dry, and made my face look bright white in pictures. Not to mention it is very messy and doesn't travel well. I'd avoid...

Every time I use my Bare Essentials products, I use this as the final step. I use the regular, non tinted formula, so you can't even see it. I feel like it does help though, and I plan on using it...

I use the luminating one and although my skin is oily, this does not make my skin look greasy. It has a nice sheen to it and it works well in keeping the oilies at bay. I am not much fond of...

subpar. I stupidly used this for years. It gives a decent finish, but does not control the oilies. Youngblood rice setting powder is far superior. It's chalky and you waste so much of the product...

This is a great finishing powder. I use it after my bare minerals to set it and it makes it look great, think it would work great with a liquid foundation 2, if not better. I also use this for half...

I love this stuff! It goes GREAT on top of liquid foundation and makes my face a LOT less oily throughout the day. It's soft and goes on very smoothly and doesn't cake at all. This came with...

I think possibly those people who are saying this product is "over the top" and "glammy" may be applying too much product. The instructions are to use very little, to swirl the brush around, tap...

I love this product as it gives my makeup a soft focus effect. The downside is it doesn't keep my makeup staying matte for very long and also I think the packaging is terrible.
