Outstanding Product Love this product and also the brush with a tan it gives you a glow that makes you look like you had a good night sleep and the color is so refreshing and pretty makes older ladies have that young girl glow what older lady wouldn't love that thanks again BE for another outstanding product. 05/05/2013
Versatile and subtle Excellent set! The veil adds a very subtle tint of color and goes on smooth like other veil types. The compact it's in is pretty great too, wish they'd carry over the dispenser design to other products. The included retractable brush is excellent for travel and I also use with my foundation. For the cost, it's a great deal for the combo! 05/05/2013
I Love This I have this Balance and Boost in the Apricot color tint and this is just wonderful. It gives me such a finished look and color. I guess the color helps even out my skin tone? Don't know what it does just that it's great. I wear ready foundation in Medium Tan, Matte in Fairly Medium to Medium (Summer). 04/26/2013
Meh... I don't know why this has such amazing reviews. I bought this after reading said reviews and I was soooo disappointed! I've been using bareMinerals for several years, and I'm a big fan, and I really wanted to love this, but I can't. It does absolutely nothing for my complexion. I even used this on half my face, and the original mineral veil on the other half and I couldn't see any difference; neither could my mom. For reference I'm a medium skintone--I wear Golden Medium in BM ready foundation, and 4.5 Warm Natural during winter and 5 Golden during summer in bobbi brown Skin Foundation--and I just couldn't see any kind of difference on my skintone. Maybe you need to be very pale or light. :/ It performs well, just like the original mineral veil, but for a "glow," this did nothing for me, that's why I gave it only three hearts. 04/10/2013
Great Mid Day Refresher I wanted something compact to toss in my purse for a subtle mid day refresher and this product has met my needs perfectly. The compact dispenses the exact amount of the product (genius design) and absolutely NO messiness. The compact brush is excellent ~ just pop the top off, pop the brush up, apply the product, pop the brush back down and pop the top on and toss back in my purse. It's amazing how so little of a product can make you feel so refreshed. It says limited edition so I'm concerned it won't be available when I want more. 04/09/2013
Grest Product - Great Tool! Ordered this kit "just because", thought I'd give it a try. I am SO glad I did. When the kit first arrived, I felt that there was no way it could work for me as the product looked so very peach-y in the dispenser and my skin tone is very, very fair. Was I wrong! The shade looks perfect - nice glow & coverage without the slightest hint of orange. The dispenser works really well - giving just the right amount of product for application. And the brush...well, it is my new favorite brush--EVER. My morning routine is now a snap...cleanse, moisturize, apply Balance & Boost Mineral Veil and DONE. After receiving and using my first kit, I actually ordered two additional "spares". Love it! 04/05/2013
Please Retain this product You must retain this product for we that have sallow complexions. Regular Mineral Veil and tinted do not give us the natural glow this new one does. I've been a fan of this makeup for over 15 years. And this is the first time I've taken the time to write about a product. The reason being is that it is a great product for us that have no natural healthy pink look to our skin. It looks so good and not fake. I have even considered ordering 4 or more because it is a limited edition. I would be very unhappy without this product. I mix makeup colors now to get this look but that doesn't give sallow skin the same look as this great product. Friends have asked me what I've done to my skin lately to look so healthy and actually younger. 03/28/2013
Skin booster When I received this product I thought it was really bright looking - to my surprise when I applied it over my tan skin it washed away all of the ashy tones - and gave a healthy glow. When applied on my daughters medium skin tone it provided the same healthy glow. Great completion boost in the winter months. 03/23/2013
Seriously, amazing Really didn't think I would get this fantastic of a product for only 20$ I am completely 100% impressed. The glow that it gives me, is seriously amazing. A little spread of BB Cream and a flush of the powder and my face looks flawless and radiant. My makeup routine has never been so simple and I have never been so satisfied. 03/12/2013
so happy I tried this I bought this on a whim. SO glad I did. When it arrived I didn't think I'd even use it because it was peachy looking and I have medium to medium beige and olive skin tone so I thought it would be disastrous. Way opposite. It is just right. In fact the original mineral veil is too light and washes out my make up and the tinted is too dark past October. Warmth just isnt working for me. This is JUST RIGHT. The dispenser - FANTASTIC - I will keep using BE just for this dispenser. I dont waste product anymore and it is just the right amount every time. I also tried the tinted face primer and radiance. Suddenly I have that natural weekend look with so little effort and looks as good or better than my whole BE routine I think some days. Don't hesitate to try this for those of you who shy away from "peach" and "apricot". It actually goes on perfect for a natural glow and the dispenser is brilliant. The brush - FINALLY a solution to the travel buki model that breaks. This one is really good. Hoping for a bigger one to come out. 02/21/2013

Yes, the loose powders work fine. I've found you can mix & match any combination of the Ready (foundation, blush, ...) and loose powders (mineral veil, concealer, ...).

You may already have figured this out by this point: close the lid, invert the container once, when it's upright again, open the top. Viola! The right amount is dispensed!

After peeling the seal off the mirror, close it. hold the container upside down for a few seconds. hold it right side up and open, it should have dispensed a bit of product. if you need more product then close the cap and hold it upside down again. hope this helps

A: 
In the summer I get quite tan and use the Tinted Mineral Veil, but in the winter I am a medium skin tone (I wear Medium Beige foundation) and it's perfect for my winter skintone. The Translucent is a little too light and chalky for me, and this adds just a little warmth.

I wouldn't think it would be too dark for a lighter skin tone, but I do think it would be too light for a very deep skin tone.

A: 
Mineral Veil is meant for everyone. But with my friends, I always recommend the tinted mineral veil if you are in the tan-dark or deep family.
Technically the original mineral veil is "translucent" but you may be able to see a slight lightening after you put it on.

There is sunscreen. Mineral Veil and Warmth are different products. I use my Mineral veil way more than warmth! Although I like warmth, these two products do totally different things. Mineral Veil is a must have product!

The package does not list an SPF like the Mineral Veil 25 SPF does.

It is quite a bit lighter than the tinted version, closer to and just slightly warmer than the Translucent version. I am medium skin tone, and I find the Translucent to be just a little too light and chalky, and this is much better for my winter skintone.

There is a mineral veil with an SPF 25 but the original meneral veil does not have any SPF in it. If you go under makeup > finishing powder it is the first product on the second line saying SPF 25 Mineral Veil
