I use this on my face everyday, by itself or over a CC cream. It just holds my makeup in place and makes your face look flawless. It also doesn't settle into your lines & wrinkles. I would heartily recommend this!

This product might be more useful in the summer, but my skin has been really dry this winter and the powder seemed to soak up what little moisture I had left on my face. I think I a liquid illuminator might be a better bet for me.

I love the original and also wanted to try something new. I was very disappointed in this product. Instead of a nice natural illuminating glow it makes me look like a sparkle queen. Not age appropriate. Going back to the original.
I was already a fan of the original Mineral Veil, but I decided to try something "new" with the Illuminating Mineral Veil. As with the other Bare Escentuals products, I was not disappointed.
The Illuminating Mineral Veil is a nice change from the original Mineral Veil and since they are the same price, it was worth a try. While I wouldn't go so far as to say it provides a flawless or airbrushed look, I love the ethereal, soft look... Think of it as a slight gaussian blur. :-)
