Perfectly Light Weight !
3/21/2007 - Renee of Indiana, USA writes:
I love this mineral makeup. It is very lightweight. The cleanser has a light refreshing sent. The concealer hides the flaws. I would be willing to advertise (with car decals) to get the name out there for more women to enhance their beauty with this product. Mineral makeup is truly better than the average store bought foundation. They could supply a better size per the cost.
Awful!

I used this product and not only was it cakey by the end of the day, but the color IS NOT blendable. I am fair with freckles and their fairest shade made me yellow looking. It's the first time EVER that I've had a line on my jaw line. I use Bare Minerals now and I will never go back. I have bad acne and Bare Minerals works great at covering it up. Their consealer is also a mineral power so it works great together. I also have a birth mark on my forehead and it was still bright as day with Sheer Cover, but with Bare Minerals it's gone. Sheer Cover's brushes suck as well. Don't waste your money.
This is an awesome product

I love this product so much. I really sensitive, dry, skin and eczema. This product helped a bit with the condition of my skin because it allows it to breath. Sheer cover actually makes my skin look fairly normal and somewhat flawless. I didn't like the product at first because I was wearing a shade too light, but they sent me a free sample of a darker shade and when I blended them it matched my skin very well. They have awesome features online to create your own kits and change the frequency of deliveries. I used to have to call customer service to do all that, but now it is really convenient. My mom and sisters love this product too!
so so results

I saw the infomercial and thought this would cover up my sun spots and freckles...the concealer did, but not just the straight powder, i had alot of trouble findingmy shade, but customer service sent me the next shade up for free and were very nice. If you don't have the correct shade you look very pasty and plastic. I also ran out long before I was should have, it does not last for a month if used daily.. no way, that was misleading...unless I still am not applying it correctly. I prefer this to liguid creamsm my face appears smoother.
I love love love Sheer Cover

I used Sheer Cover before and loved it but with some money problems I had to cancell my orders. So a couple of months later I had some friends and family member rave about Bare Minerals so I thought I would try it, it doesn't even compare to the flawless coverage that Sheer Cover gave me. So I am happy to say I am back to Sheer Cover I I won't use anything else. Thank you Sheer Cover.
Not happy with results

Received my products yesterday. I was so excited!! This was my Birthday present for myself. I have watched the infomercials for a long time and finally decided to purchase. I must say that I am very dissapointed in the way the product goes on. It does not work like it does in the infomercial and it does not look like it does on the models. Actually, it looks very clownlike. The brushes are too hard and scratchy. I am generally, NOT HAPPY, with any of it.
Very Good Product

I have been using this product for 3 years and love it. The concealer is the best ever and the foundation is great, too ( THE TRICK IS FINDING YOUR RIGHT SHADE). I am giving the foundation a 4 star rating only because it isn't very long lasting.
It was OK!

I saw Sheer Cover ad on TV, and bought some. I think it's OK, but not all the hype everyone is putting on it. It looks like the stuff I already have. No better no worse. but I can say, it didn't even come close to looking like the people on the TV ad. (But then I don't have make-up artist doing mine either) Maybe I'm not doing it right, maybe it's the cheap brushes? I don't know. But I won't be ordering it again. I did however, find out that you can buy this Mineral Make-Up stuff OTC. I wish I would have found this out before hand.
I like Sheer Cover
3/13/2007 - Margie of Oregon, USA writes:
I have used another mineral makeup I won't name here but it has been around 33 years. I have found it made me look alot older around my eyes, and its main ingredient is Bismuth Oxycloride which causes the high sheen. So I began using Sheer cover a month ago. It has Bismuth Oxycloride too but it is listed at the tail end of the ingredients, so meaning much less. I don't know why everyone who rates it doesn't rate it well, I found the sheen is less and the concealer is a cream, so I do not have the makeup settling in the lines around my eyes. I have gotten complements about my skin as well, and it lasts all day. And you save money with the product when you are a member, by ordering by create a kit program you can choose your kit your way every 90 days, its great.
Worked for me...<3

I just purchased this product! I had to have it. Saturday (March 10th)I went over to my neighbors house, and she wanted to show me how good it was. I have a line across my nose that i HATE, and when she brushed the powder over my nose it dissapeard!My neighbors complextion is lighter than mine, so i wasnt happy with the color, i looked too pale, but the coverage and the way it set was perfection. I bought "Tan"...starter kit, and i can't wait to put it on. Also, i'll say this... sunday morning when i took my shower, after i dried my face, i couldnt believe how smooth it felt..i can't say 100% that it was because of the makeup, but i'm pretty sure beause i didnt do anything else different.
Give it a Try!

I am surprised to see all the negative reviews on Sheer Cover as most of the complaints given here about Sheer Cover (cakiness, emphasizing lines/wrinkles, not natural-looking) are exactly the problems I experienced with BE, and the reason I decided to give Sheer Cover a try. I think Sheer Cover works great, especially the concealer, and looks great too. I do agree with others about using a quality brush - the one from the kit is just plain bad and it is surprising that they actually include such a poor quality brush with their product! Apparently there really isn't a single, magic product that works for everyone, but as for me, I love it and recommend you give it a try.
It's been fine so far..

I am a beauty junkie, I found out when I just never finish using a make-up product and always experimenting with a new one. The only thing I ever bought from tv was proactive (didnt help-my acne cleared when I started exfoliating my skin). I never gave these make-up infos a try..until I saw a good-bargain SC ad in the mail: Tried, liked it. The product has lil amount though..the one thing I like is the concealer--it really does its job!- I even use it as the FOUNDATION itself. Advice: try it for fun. n dont use the brushes/cleanser/moisterizer- there are better over-the-counter ones.
It seems OK

Have just started using Sheer Cover and so far am reasonably pleased. I've never really been into makeup in a big way but am heading towards 40 this year and wanted to try something different. It's only the first week but am reasonably pleased with results. I have an uneven skin tone due to a few spots/small broken veins. It doesn't cover completely but definately tones things down. My skin type is medium/dry and I've had no break outs yet. I'm probably not using enough but don't want that 'caked' appearance some women get. All in all, am happy so far. Will post again if things change dramatically - better or worse! I've rated as a 4 but would actually say 3.5.
Best Makeup
2/24/2007 - Deidre of Alabama, USA writes:
Personally. this is the best makeup I've ever tried, and i doubt I'll ever use anything else. I tried Bare Minerals and it was okay but Sheer Cover was amazing. I started getting so many compliments from complete strangers when I started using it. It makes my skin look terrific. I've been using it for almost a year now and I'm still amazed at the difference in the way my skin looks. However, it doesn't work for everyone. When i suggested it to other people, some liked it but others said it made their skin look ashy or it was just off color. I think they would have a better all around product if they had a bigger variety of color shades. but for me and a lot of other people its perfect. Thank goodness they have a money back guarantee.
Yuck.

The concealer that's "specialy formulated" to work with the mineral makeup don't work together at all. The concealer looks okay until I put the makeup on and I look like I have a skin disease. I'd rather go out with no make up than look like I'm dressed for Halloween. So I started using it without the concealer and it provides NO coverage. However, it makes me itch. I think the itching is more from the cheap brush than the makeup. The bristles are WAY too hard and may have been piercing my skin hundreds of times per application; or it could be made of horse hair and maybe I'm allergic to horse. I've tried Bare Minierals since and am much happier with that product. Been using it for about 2 years now, it's good stuff. I'm now moving on to Dermacia, we'll see how that one does.
Works for me.

I first tried Sheer cover about 4 years ago and I have not turned back since. Admittedly I do not use the Sheer Cover cleanser or moisturiser as I seem to have a slight allergic reaction to one or more of the ingredients but I do use the concealer, foundation and finishing powder. I also use a professional make up brush instead of the cheap bristly one that comes with sheer cover which makes a HUGE difference to the way it looks. I get a lot of complimentson my skin when I am wearing Sheer Cover. If you do try Sheer Cover I recommend you use your preferred cleanser and moisturiser and buy a proper make up brush.
Not as good as it looks...
2/15/2007 - Michelle of Wisconsin, USA writes:
I love make up and I know when I have found good make up. Sheer Cover makeup is mediocre. Although it does say that you have to allow ur natural skin oil to mix with the minerals to get the cakey look to go away, the make-up still looks fake and cakey at the end of the day. Up close, the make up makes pores look enlarged and does not blend well. The brush provided is very prickly and harsh against the skin. It's messy and not as great as advertised. Overall, I would say save your money and try another product.
Do not waste your money on this product

The claims from the infomercial are false and misleading. As a woman who does not have any scares to hide I believed that this product would be great for my skin type...wrong. Customer service is horrible and I can't believe Liza Gibbons would associate herself with this product
Misleading
2/15/2007 - Jeanie of Florida, USA writes:
After watching the infomercial I erroneously purchased this product which doesn't apply nor remotely resembles the hyped examples shown. The powder was orange and it is mind boggling that anyone has a skin tone that would accept it. The concealer doesn't stay put either as I believe not many concealers on the market do and only added to the layers. I kept it but immediately cancelled my order and had no problems with doing so. I would wholeheartedly NOT recommend it to anyone.
Best makeup I've had
2/8/2007 - Kathleen of California, USA writes:
I don't wear a lot of makeup but as I've gotten older (39) I feel I need more. This product works great and feels so light you forget it's on. I don't like the feel of foundation but I wanted the coverage. I get this with sheer cover. It works on age spots, freckles, and adult acne.
