Just saw an infomercial about it and I want to know if anyone uses it and if it really works as well as they say?

Well I guess I don't use it cuz I don't know what it is. What is it?

SHeer Cover? Is this a version of Bare Minerals makeup? I looooooooooove my Bare Minerals. I tend to think of all these other ones that are coming out as knock-offs, when they could be just as good, lol!

Yep its similar to Bare Minerals, only Leeza Gibbons is the one in the infomercials. I've never used it, but I do use Bare Minerals & love it.

Man....I want that bare minerals stuff. One night I woke up to an infomercial offering it for half off, I should have picked up the phone right then!

I want to try Bare Minerals too. I saw an infomercial one night too and it looks great, but I didn't know if it really did what it said so I was hesitant.

they have it at the Mall of America so I went in and had someone from the store apply it to me (women were swarming in there like sharks on chum, lemme tell ya!) Anyway, I looked AWESOME ..... at first ..... and then it went all ORANGE on my skin --- I looked like an Oompa Loompa. It was bad - and I didn't even know. I was walking all over the mall and people were looking and me extra long and I'm thinking, "Dang! I must look really good with this stuff on!" Then I had to use the bathroom and I looked in the mirror and found out WHY everyone was looking. bwaaaaaaah~

Also, I don't like the feeling of dust ground into my skin. BUT I did get a different version at Target and lightly applied, it does a nice job.

LOL Christine. Is that the Bare minieral or the sheer cover that you got orange with?

I use the lightest Bare Minerals kit (light/fairly light combo) & have never had any problems with my skin looking orange. It is really easy & quick to apply and it lasts for quite awhile. I can go a few months on one little kit container & I wear makeup every single day whether I'm leaving the house or not! I have acne prone skin & it covers/looks better than liquid foundation on my skin.

I ordered it. I hated it. Gave it all to my mom. I second Christine. I looked good when I left the bathroom...by the time I got to church I felt all gritty and looked awful! :O

I bought the Loreal version a couple of months ago (impulse shopping!), I really like it!

I have the Loreal version too and I love it. I don't wear makeup in the summer time and not every day anyhow. Mostly only when I have to go somewhere. I used to wear it more, but now that I'm eating healthier my skin has been a lot better looking so I don't have to wear it as much. I use a moisturizer with a tad of a tint in it and it's SPF 15 and that seems to be enough for summer for me.

Ok was the sheer cover making you all orange because the color just too dark to start with? I would probably need the lightest of all the shades.

So mineral girls, is it pretty much the same as sheer cover?

I tried the sheer cover at MOA. And it looked perfect when first applied but it went orange on me later on
