When I decided to try mineral makeup I tried the easy to get brands. Aside from being more expensive, I was never impressed. That is until I tried SheerMiracle. I HAD Rosacea that I could not get rid of and what I considered not pretty skin. I never got compliments on my makeup. After about 2 months of using the product I noticed that you could not even tell the redness was there after putting on my minerals. For the 1st time ever I started to hear "You have beautiful skin", "Oh, your makeup looks amazing" again and again. I always met with "Oh no, I have horrible skin. Well, turns out not so much when my makeup is on, it looks pretty darn good. I cannot say enough about the product. Also the amount of time it takes to put it on is cut WAY down than with other "bases" of the past. I have physical problems and would probably not wear makeup much if it were not so easy. Plus, I have my sunscreen on at the same time. I will always use this and have told many people about the product. Thanks for a super simple wonderful and inexpensive product.
