Should You Use Sheer Cover Cosmetics?

August 27th, 2007

Beauty reviews are full of sheer cover cosmetics these days. What exactly is this, and is it something that your really need? Or is it just another catchy name to sell more beauty and makeup products? Well, the whole point of sheer cover makeup is supposed to be that you get good coverage for blemishes and redness, without the heavy feel of cream or liquid foundation. The big player right now in sheer cover cosmetics are the mineral makeup products. I’ve actually done a few beauty reviews on these in the past.

Honestly, I really like the Bare Escentuals i.d bareMinerals Foundation – SPF 15 Sunscreen and Bare Escentuals Mineral Veil. These are so popular because of the good coverage and lightness- just what they’re supposed to do. The foundation gives coverage and the veil absorbs excess oil and minimizes pores and fine lines. Why would you want these sheer coverage cosmetics instead of other foundations? Well, you’ve probably noticed that many of the liquids and creams can react by making lines more apparent or forming crease lines. You won’t get that with sheer cover cosmetics.

Are there any down sides to the sheer cover cosmetics? Well, you’re probably going to pay more for a quality product like the Bare Escentuals line than you will pay for a drugstore liquid foundation. So you need to decide if the benefits of sheer cover cosmetics are worth it for you. If tend to shine or have an issue with pores or fine lines, it may be a great investment. As always, you need to be the judge. Beauty reviews should be evaluated with what you already know about your own needs. No one knows your skin like you do.
