Can you use without foundation?

You could use this without foundation, I suppose. But it would only give you a matte finish. This will not even skin tone out because it is translucent, and if you apply too much, you will look like a ghost because it is white. This is a setting powder meant to set makeup (typically liquid) that has been applied so it does not wear over time. If you are looking for a light powder, try a face powder or mineral foundation that matches your skin tone. Only a color correcting primer, liquid or powder foundation, concealer, tinted moisturizer, or a BB cream can help you with giving you an even skin look. I suggest checking out Make Up For Ever's HD Primer and select the one that is meant to correct redness (I believe it's the green one, don't be afraid! It's only a base primer); then find a face powder in your skin tone to even your skin color and mattify it. It will be a very light (almost no makeup) feel.

I apply sunscreen under this,so yes. If you place sunscreen over this it would defeat the purpose of the tint of foundation.

It depends on your skin quality and how much coverage you want. It's really light. I pair it with a solid loose powder on days I want really light coverage and that works fine. I've also paired it with mineral powder as well for a bit more coverage. Personally, I would think foundation on top might be a bit much.

Yes, or mix the foundation into the cream. The sunscreen is quite thick & takes awhile to rub in. I have also found Coppertone Sunbabies to be a good product under makeup. I am very fair skinned.

Yes, the foundation is meant to be used by itself. It does not need any additional support.

Yes. I use a liquid foundation and use the mineral veil as a final foundation.

Since I use a powdered mineral, there aren't any foundation lines. I would think it would help with them, tho.

Prime Time should be the last thing you put on before the foundation. You may not have to use lotion at all, though- try it with and without to see what works best for you. And remember, BE foundation, and nearly if not all of their products, have a natural SPF. Hope this helps!

If you have an Ulta, Sephora, or Bare Escentuals store near you, they can match your skin with the correct BareMinerals foundation for free. Is there another foundation that you have been using? If so, that can be helpful in matching your BareMinerals foundation shade.

Yes, I wear it under foundation and get a great coverage. It also helps you use a little less of it so price evens out,too.

You can use it with either a moisturizer or a wrinkle cream; however, I would recommend letting the moisturizer dry completely before applying the foundation. I have noticed that my eye wrinkle cream (which is a bit oily) does make the concealer a thinner consistency and tends to make the makeup streak. But all in all this foundation is very thick and allows for adequate coverage!

I think it's to be worn over makeup-- is usually the last thing I put on. it's very natural and not sparkly. I suppose you could mix it with makeup? I don't wear foundation, just concealer and bronzer. I love this stuff and thinks it makes a very nice, subtle difference. Gives skin that glowy/dewy look where you want it and doesn't make you lookshiny. hope this helps :)

No, I would buy foundation too. Both are lightweight. The mineral veil is more of a finishing product than a foundation substitute to me. But, then again, if you have naturally awesome skin, maybe the mineral veil alone will be all you need.

I suggest that you wear Cotz first (closest to your skin) and perhaps you can skip the primer and foundation. I have noticed that it makes a beautiful foundation and protects from sun exposure.

Yes, I use it every day under my normal foundation. When you first apply it, you think it is going to be oily, but it absorbs in just a couple of minutes. I find that it lets me use less foundation. I do apply a light coating of powder afterwards, and before applying powder blush. If you were using a liquid blush, I would suggest applying it prior to powder.

Yes you can. I actually don't use anything because this product is so awesome it coats and protects and the color is rich. I love it

No. I never do. The Foundation is a milky color but dries fairly clear. I always use it and then a clear top coat. That's it. Love this stuff! You will notice a difference once you quit using it. Nails are stronger and grow faster when using these products. Hope this helps.
