bareMinerals Mineral Veil

This powder is really light, it creates good finishing touch yet does not make you feel cakey at all. Only one downside, like other brands of mineral powder, it can not stay all day. But yeah, I love how it keeps my skin from turning oily most of the time

When used in combination with Bareminerals foundations, this stuff is pure gold. It sets the powder beautifully. I do find it has a little bit too much shimmer for my tastes, so I don't use it every day, and it does not last whole day; it needs to be touched up after lunch, especially during summer when it melts off.

I purchased this after buying the bare minerals foundation after reading reviews on here. I've never used another powder on top of my mineral foundation before, but now I am completely converted. It sets the foundation, and stops it going oily, it gives it a air brush kind of effect over top, as it smoothes out any lines and just smoothing out my skin tone in general. I've used it today a second time before going out for dinner, without reapplying my foundation, and it gave it an refreshed look, and took away any shine. Love this product!

So fine and light but keeps your skin from oiling up. Definitely my favourite powder to go out my bb cream and liquid foundation. Also doesn't look chalky which is a bonus, especially for medium to tan skin.

I purchased my mineral veil when in America last year and I can't get enough of it. I find after I have applied my mineral foundation and warmth, the veil really completes my look and softens and blends all together. As I am quite a novice with make up I really appreciate how easy it is to get a lovely flawless look!

I use bareMinerals Mineral Veil in 'Illuminating' and it gives me a lovely glow over top of my makeup. I tend to use it over my BB or CC creams if I'm having a great skin day and don't need a lot of coverage. I find it just sets the cream nicely and gives that glow that we all want. I wasn't sure how I felt about it to start with as I didn't notice a dramatic difference in my appearance but now I'm addicted and couldn't be without it. Such a great product (and the whole range in general) for sensitive skin.

I received this as part of my Bareminerals set and have fallen so much in love with it that it is a complete Must whenever I wear Bareminerals. The mineral veil is a lovely, soft powder that really does feel weightless when applied over your face. It sets the foundation and allows more wear from it as well as giving a nice 'airbrushed' effect that softens lines and in my case, makes my freckles and sun spots less noticeable. I like to reapply this throughout the day to stop shine from showing through and to keep a matte finish. Definitely repurchase worthy!

I had a small size of this included with the pack I bought and I love it. It makes your skin look dewy and airbrushed almost. Sets the foundation and make sit last throughout the day. This is a really fine powder so can get quite messy but the new design of the tubs has helped with this issue somewhat.

As with the foundation, it is a bit pricey but worth it.

This stuff replaced my mac veil as its so much better! Its very light weight, has a slight shimmer and takes a bit of the oil out of my foundation. Perfect staying power, my foundation lasts hours longer, especially around my nose and chin. It also has minimized my smile lines which are my problem area as foundation seems to sink in and make them look biger, this stopped it from sliding. A good sized tub and a little product goes a long way, as if you use too much you look quite shimmery. I got it for $2 off trademe! SCORE

On using the hydrating mineral veil i found that my makeup lasted longer than with my usual powder. The mineral veil doesn't make your foundation go cakey unlike may other powders which is great! However, I didn't feel it gave an "airbrushed" finish as advertised but this was expected. This product would be great for you if you want a mineral powder with no coverage to help absorb oils. I wouldn't recommend this if you have dry skin as it make my oily skin feel dry.
