Questions & Answers

How can you be sure that this product isn't a fake when so many customers have complained about it?

You simply cannot do so. This is not the genuine article; it is a forgery.

The "original" mineral veil, which is light in color, is what I have. This has a "pinkish" appearance to it. Is it possible that it's a concealer?

It's not technically a concealer, but everyone's skin is different, so if it works for you, I'd keep using it that way. Mineral veil is intended to be used as a translucent sealer over foundation (mineral powder) to give the skin a glow. In the Bare Escentuals line, there are concealer-type mineral powders (e.g., e.g., e.g., e.g., e.g., e.g., e , "Well- They're called "rested" for a reason.

Is it a matte finish and how big is it?

I have the illuminating version, but the original is matte. I love this product because you can use it throughout the day.

One of the ingredients is zinc, as far as I can tell. Is there anyone else who wonders if putting zinc on one's face is safe over time?

Most high-end, dermatologist-formulated facial sunscreens contain zinc. I've been using it for years and haven't had any negative side effects.

Be cautious when purchasing something online
3/5

What I got was a small container that was supposed to hold zero. 03 oz - The larger container is from a previous order, which was for $0. 00. 03 oz. The smaller container serves as a sample size rather than a full container. 03 oz, and it shouldn't be labeled as such. Because I use this product on a daily basis, I would never buy a sample size. Be Wary of the Buyer!.

The size is extremely small
3/5

This is something I really enjoy. However, I usually buy adult sizes, and this is a munchkin size. I didn't read closely enough. For the regular size, eight dollars is a steal, and it's easy to see why. It's not as big as the eye shadows. My bad. Small print should be read carefully.

THIS IS A FAKE PRODUCT
3/5

Bare Minerals is one of my favorite brands, but THIS IS A FAKE PRODUCT. BEWARE OF THE BUYER! READ THE LABEL CAREFULLY AND CHECK FOR ALL MISTAKES. MINE SAYS BARE ESCENTUELS, ZEA MAVS (CORM) STARCN, GORN STRACH MOOIFIEO, AND ZEA MAVS (CORM) STARCN.

The advertised size was not accurate
3/5

It wasn't the advertised size at all. I won't order this from Amazon again because the sample size was so small.

FRAUDULENT MARKETING is a term that is used to describe marketing that is deceptive
3/5

This is a teeny-tiny sample, not a full-size cosmetic. The listed product's dimensions correspond to the standard makeup size. The product description is deceptive (because it is incorrect), and you will be disappointed if you spend your money on this tiny sample.

This isn't the genuine Mineral Veil! I wish I had read the other reviews before placing my order with this seller
3/5

I've been a fan of Bare Escentuals products for a long time, and since I wasn't going to be near a retail location, I decided to order from Amazon. This is not the real Mineral Veil; it's usually a fine, sheer powder that blends in nicely with my skin and gives me a finished look. This "stuff" is grainy and crumbly, and it makes me look like a ghost when I apply it to my skin; I'm not sure what it is, but it's not Bare Escentuals Mineral Veil. Don't waste your time or money by purchasing this item from this seller.

Be Wary of the Buyer falsification! For more than 6 years, I've been wearing Bare Minerals Original Mineral Veil
3/5

It's my favorite product, and it's the only thing that keeps my skin from becoming oily throughout the day. I buy it from Sephora or Ulta every time. However, due to the craziness of the holidays, I ran out of time to run any additional errands and decided to order from Amazon. I made the mistake of buying from this seller and was shocked to discover that the product did not even look the same after the first use. It was a little more crumbly and sticky than usual. I used it anyway, and my skin became as oily as if I hadn't used any product at all within hours; I figured it was just a humid day or something, so I kept using it for the next week. Every day, the same result: By lunchtime, my hands were oily, so I went to Ultra and bought a container to compare. Half of the words on the back of the container I bought from this seller were misspelled, with some missing entirely. Rather than "original mineral veil," it said "mineral veil. " " There was a different font on the lid. It was a good lesson. BUY FROM AUTHORIZED RETAILERS IF YOU WANT THE REAL DEAL. Only God knows what's in it.

I was let down
3/5

This was only a smidgeon of a test! I didn't want to give one star because I ordered what I thought was the same thing I ordered the previous time, according to the app! and they tell me I'm not allowed to come back?.
