ITCHY RASH AND ACNE!!! DON'T USE THIS PRODUCT!
1/21/2008 - Anonymous of Illinois, USA writes:
I have no idea what these "natural" minerals they are using are, but all I know is they made my face, chin and neck break out with little, raised red bumps that were REALLY close together. It looked AWFUL! And it was embarrassing. I NEVER HAVE HAD ACNE IN MY LIFE and I am 22 years old, nor have I EVER had an allergic reaction to make up before... I'm someone who is always trying new products and has never had a problem before now. I AM STILL RECOVERING FROM THIS PRODUCT! The rash showed up 2 days after I began using it which my dermatologist said is common. A rash from a foreign product takes 1-2 days usually. Not only that... I bought it to cover up dark circles, and it didn't even do that. Sooo, my skin looked exactly the same after putting this on. I knew it was too good to be true. RIP OFF.
Best Makeup Out There!

I was very skeptical when I purchased this product. When it arrived at my door, I watched the DVD and applied the makeup. I was completely shocked that it did exactly what they said it would on the infomercial. The coverage is great and the concealer hid my redness and made my freckles less visible. The amount of product received was a bargain for less than 30 bucks. All the products in the kit are wonderful and I have already added some color products to future kits. I would recommend that everyone watch the DVD before applying the makeup. It takes a special technique and incorrect technique can make all the difference in the world. Hands down, excellent product!
not like the tv ad

I got this thinking that it would cover the redness and blemishes that were on my face like the commerical but the colors were so yellow base i looked bad. i ended up washing my face and i tried mixing the colors to blend them to match my skin but no luck the coverage that they get on tv was not there. i gave up . the kit is sitting in a closet not being used. not worth the money sherry
THE BEST MAKEUP EVER!!

This product is the best makeup out there! It's incredible I am using it for about 3 weeks and I love it. It covers , makes your skin look younger and flawless. I used before so many brands and expensive products and finally I am with the best foundation ever . I highly recommend sheercover to anyone, it is good four your skin no chemicals and makes you feel like you are not wearing any makeup at all. It is amazing....I can't wait for my next shipment!
Look Younger

I am 62 yrs old and lead a very active life. I love putting on SheerCover in the morning and not worrying about it all day. It does not fade or melt off from activity. Once in a while I will use my touch up brush if I'm going out after work. So many people have told me how beautiful my skin is.
LOVE IT

When I first tried this product, I was wary. I picked up the light to medium set at my local bed bath & beyond. After experimenting with the shades (a mixture of bisque and buff) I finally found one that looked right. I put it on and was disappointed...my skin looked exactly the same but more yellow. So I put on another layer and the coverage improved greatly but my skin still looked yellow. I let the make up sit on my face for a half hour longer before checking it again and this time the shade seemed to have blended in with my face and I looked natural, luminous, and air brushed. I have prominent freckles and otherwise normal skin and I would have to say that this product does not erase my flaws, but it instead makes them less noticeable. Great product.
Excellent Product

I couldn't be more pleased with Sheer Cover! I have redness on my face and this makeup totally covers it up. It gives my skin a soft, flawless appearance. Also, the Sheer Cover concealer is the only brand I've found that really hides blemishes completely. I highly recommend this makeup!
Save your money

I don't usually buy stuff off TV, but I've always liked and trusted Leeza Gibbons, so I gave it a try. I thought the packaging was cheaply done. Cases are hard to open and close. Brushes are okay. Cleaser,moisturizer,cover & powder don't last through the day, and not better than what I could get at the department store. The lip glosses are not like putting vaseline on your lips--not much color at all. Don't waste your money, it's all a come on. I'm surprised Leeza puts her name on this. They must be paying her well.
Breakout City

My 13 year old daughter and I (34)tried this product. We were so excited when Sheer Cover showed up on our door step. After about 3 to 4 weeks of using this product our faces began to breakout all over. My daughter does not have acne and she started freaking out when she started getting big huge pimples. I on the other hand have acne prone skin and thought this product would be great for me because they say it is all natural, won't clog pores and is good for your skin. Don't waste your money it's not worth it.
Totally sucks

All I know is that I have been using [] for about 3 years and never broke out once. I bought Sheer Coverage at a local store and tried it and I got a zit right in the middle of my face. I would never use this product again!!!(gave the junk away). My sister just ordered the sheer coverage (don't understand why) and she had to wind up getting a manager on the phone because they were trying to sell her all kinds of other products.
It worked on my acne prone skin
12/28/2007 - Danyelle of Pennsylvania, USA writes:
I have been using this product for about four days now, and my skin has improved greatly. I'm 17 and this year my acne reached its peak. I go to the dermatologist, use prescribed cleansers, lotions, and take multiple pills for my acne. I have been prescribed just about everything for my acne and I was on the verge of taking Accutane (extremely strong medication with a lot of side effects). After using Sheer Cover for literally four days my acne is going away. I even stopped using my prescribed cleansers. I would advise anyone with acne to use it.
Great Product

I wholeheartedly agree with Dey of Texas who stated that some of the other reviewers had not watched the video. You need to watch it! This is a great product. The minerals go a long way, the brushes are great. I can't say enough how good it is. The base perfector is my favorite. I'm 50+ and it makes my skin feel like velvet. Since I've started using Sheer Cover, I've had numerous comments from my co-workers, male and female, on how good I look. And for anyone out there suffering from hot flashes and who've had issues with make-up, Sheer Cover stays on great. I'm a former Cover Girl user, but this beats Sheer Cover is by far the better product. Also the cleansing lotion beats anything else I've ever tried. Go try it!
Works great!

I am very happy with this product. I believe results truly depend on the type and condition of your skin. I am 34, with enlarged pores & combination skin. I've been using the mineral foundation and duo concealer for two weeks now, in conjunction with ProActiv. If your skin is sensitive or allergy-prone then I wouldn't recommend it due to the bismuth oxychloride content. I have been getting tons of compliments since Day 1 of using Sheer Cover, from my husband, co-workers, friends and family. The secret to using this product is "Less really is more"! You only need to apply a minimal amount to achieve the maximum desired look. The only negatives are: the products are a little over-priced, and the brushes are cheap. I invested in a set of MAC makeup brushes which work great!
Waste of Money !!

Sheer Cover seemed like it would be a great product !! They make it seem like it will make anyones' flaws vanish. I should have known. My skin is not bad & I was hoping to hide just a few blemishes & sun spots. I don't think it covered anything & my face looked exactly the same !! The brushes were a joke...childrens makeup sets come with better brushes !! The reps at Sheer Cover have been polite, but extremely aggressive at getting you to stay with them and sign on to different things !! I have since cancelled my order ( I hope ) and sent the product back !! Since I live in Canada itcost me 13$ to send the product back...too bad they don't tell you that part. I hope that the refund is smooth & no more charges appear on my bill, I have to admit I am a bit worried after reading everyone elses comments !! I don't think I will ever purchase anything on TV again....
very good give it a try

sheer cover is very good product. all you need is give it a little try to make it your own. I use to use liquid foundation and you could still see chicken pox scare i have next to my eye. i tryed sheer cover and you cant see it at all. most of the complaints i have heard is actually coming from people that wont give it enough time to play with it to see how it actually would work for you.
A great product.

I really wanted to invest in a new makeup and when I saw the comercial for Sheer Cover, I thought it would be something to try. I did research on the internet, reading reviews, compairing products, looking for the one I thought would work for me. I figured I should try Sheer Cover. I did not want to join the club in case I did not like the product. I decided to purchase Sheer Cover from []. It is a great product! I love the cover and my skin feels soft. It does not wipe off on clothing(which my husband loves). I have very sensitve skin and break out easily. With Sheer Cover, I have seemed to have clearer skin and an overall impovement in my skins texture! This really is a great product and I would recommend it.
It's just o.k.
11/18/2007 - Cathy of Florida, USA writes:
Sheer cover worked o.k., but not great. The concealer made me break out, so had to buy something else. Liked the sheerness, but needed more coverage. They also are great at screwing up on billing and only respond with a form letter that does not address the problem whatsoever. Forget trying to change credit card information--doesn't go through and they tell you they were never advised. Hate auto shipments.
UNSATISFIED

I have used other mineral makeup and was pleased but wanted to try this it seemed superior and in fact it was inferior product. leanser/lotion=iritation. Mineral Powder= Cakey. Glosses= cheap and childlike= Cust Serv=Horrendous I ordered starter kit, and unfortunately like many others am continued being billed for product I don't want or like. Bad idea to get involved w/ sheer cover
I didn't like it
11/4/2007 - Angie of California, USA writes:
I thought Sheer Cover would be really good. It seemed to cover really well on TV, but when I tried it at home my face looked like a cake. The face wash that came with it left my skin feeling like I didn't rinse it well enough. The brushes did not seem any better than others I have had. I remember they claimed having really good brushes. They let you keep the brushes when you return the make up. I still have it, and I still don't see the powder going through the brush that holds the powder inside, meaning that powder doesnt seem to make it to my skin. I had to stay with my less expensive Cover Girl make up, which I feel works a lot better. I got my money back soon after returning the product with no problem. Shipping was on me though.
Great Product - Great Service
11/3/2007 - Fran of Ohio, USA writes:
Okay, after a few too many late nights I was suckered into trying this and very skeptical. Let me start by saying it does NOT work like they show you - but I am not a professional and not really skilled with makeup. This does not hide every flaw, I still have some acne at 30 and it does not completely mask it but it DOES even everything out really well and make it so that that pimple on my chin is not the only thing you see. It goes on quickly and easily - I can finally manage to get makeup on every morning before I leave the house and I never have found time for that before. It does not cake, unless you put too much on. I really like the product, and so far (I have been using it for 4 months) my skin has actually CLEARED UP significantly, even though I have been wearing makeup every day (and sometimes not washing it off before bed) When I first received the kit the colors were a little dark, so I called intending to send the product back and they instead sent me 2 new shades of foundation - free of charge and immediately - I got it in 3 days. They also put a hold on my account so I would not be inundated with product if I did not decide I liked it. It turned out that the shade that works for me is a mix of the darker shade in the light kit and lighter shade in the tan kit, but I was able to customize my own kit online when it came time to reorder. I never tried the cleanser and moisturizer since I already have one that I am happy with - so I deleted that from my kit. You can space out the shipments to a certain degree if you are like me and the stuff lasts way longer than they tell you it will (The one-month supply lasted me more than three months). I still think that I may get more than I can use, but you can customize each shipment if you only need certain products. I have found them to be really helpful, generous and flexible, which convinces me to stick with a product that I do think is pretty expensive. I have also tried Bare Minerals, which my sister uses, and I have to say that I liked that product too - but the main thing that I liked was the warming powder, which I bought separately and use a a final step over my sheer cover foundation. I also like the BM brushes better, the Sheer Cover ones seem to be of lesser quality. In short I think this is a great product backed up by great customer service. I don't love being locked into an automatic shipment plan, but I feel confident that with the service that I have received so far, if I do decide to cancel it will be a painless experience!
