I used bare minerals for th..

While it didn't feel like I had anything on my face, my face got reallllly oily and shiny. I was even asked if I was hot because my face looked so moist. The weather wasn't incredibly hot, so I don't think that's to blame. I have oily skin, but it's never been as oily as today, when I used the product. For those who have used it, what should I do? I'm not applying tons, but I'm not using the mineral veil either. Does the mineral veil really help? Thanks for any guidance.

Yes, the mineral veil does help keep oil under control. You might also want to use oil-blotting sheets throughout the day.

Hi! A lot of people say on acne.org, that Bare Minerals make there face really shiny. You are not alone! It is because of the bismuth oxychloride in the makeup. I guess that this is what makes it shiny, and made people actually break out very bad. (From what I researched) A lot of people on Yahoo Answers like Bare Minerals. I myself have not tried it on my face, but when I tried a little bit of the product on my hand it was REALLY shiny, and glittery. I am not trying to say that it is a horrible product, but i just don't think it'll work for some people. Thumbs up to the people that use Bare Minerals and it actually works out for them. I am not sure if the Mineral veil will help you. Its supposed to set the makeup and make you look oil-free. If it doesn't work out, maybe you should look into a different mineral makeup brand. Hope I helped lots!
