Love…. but found an alternative,
I was a Bare Minerals girl for many years. I loved the coverage, I loved the color options (between summer and winter), and I loved that it was all natual, and I could sleep in it if need be.
Bare Minerals was definitely the cutting edge in mineral make-up that pushed many of us early 30’s girls away from the liquids and creams of the past.
My only issue now is the price. As other companies began doing a fabulous job of creating their own mineral make-ups, Bare Minerals became the ‘expensive’ version that was equal in quality of some of the others.
I currently am on my third jar of L’Oreal’s version and am very satisfied. I especially love that in addition to a great product, the container includes a brush that I don’t have to buy separately, clean regularly or replace. Each new container comes with a new brush that lasts the length of the make-up plus some.
I’m not saying that Bare Minerals should not be purchased. In fact, I love the product. Just be savvy of how much you want to spend for products that are equal in quality.

not the same coverage. could be fake. (fairly light review),
Not sure whats going on here but I feel like its not the same as the stuff I buy at the mall. I have to really load it on my face and even then it doesn’t have the same coverage. I’ve gone through it twice as fast as my original one from the mall.
I thought something was wrong when I first used it but I had just cleaned my makeup brush and had been out of powder for a week or so. The difference was almost not noticeable but after reading the lower reviews and I’m going to have to agree. Also, I bought the fairly light shade.
Oh, not sure if related but since I’ve been using this my breakouts have been a bit more noticeable. Not sure if because coverage sucks or something in it is not agreeing with my skin.
I will not be buying this product online again.

Not the same product as from Sephora – Counterfeit?,
This product is not the same product as I have purchased as Base Esentials Bare Minerals Foundation prior to this. I bought the Fairly light color prior to this and the product I received on this order from NU Cosmetics is not the same thing. Is is very powdery, does not cling to the face and does not cover like the real thing. The sifter on the item I received was not working right either. It would not turn. Otherwise the packaging is right-on in appearance. This product is either counterfeit or off-spec. Either way, next time I will pay for the real thing elsewhere.

FINALLY, a shine-free face,
For years, I have used a loose powder to combat oily skin. As the years have ticked by however, my skin has gotten drier (Michigan winters are brutal). A dermatologist told me that in order to compensate for the dryness, skin will produce more oil (typically in t zone area). My skin has been a disaster for the last 2 winters. And then, I tried a sample of Bare Escentuals mineral veil…Wow. A powder that actually seems to hydrate my skin & really deal with the oil. I need to reapply this product although not for about 6 hours after the 1st application. I am so pleased with mineral veil that I can not imagine using anything else.

pinkish veil,
The first veil i used was the hydrating one but decided to try the original version.
This one (the original version) definitely has a pink tint to it that I dont quite like.
I was hoping it was more like the hydrating one which is a light beige tone and not pink at all.
It’s not that obvious when used but still I wish there weren’t so much color variation on the veil unless you specifically by the tinted ones.
