Thickens pretty well, but not like the ones made thicken more than lengthen. It might tke more coats of the color. We use black.
I haven't tried Bare Minerals, but I am willing to give it a try. I sure am not happy with a multipl bottles I have now.
I did try the Loreal one. I still use the blush, probably will for the next 10 years. I swear it will never run out.
One mistake I think I made ( both my older daughters use mineral makeup) was to put it on to soon after washing my face. (after other daily goo
) That I should have let my own oils come out to "mix" with the minerals for a better coverage.
Since I have melasma ( which is fading now, but wasn't then), the coverage wasn't enough for my liking. But I will admit, I am very self conscience about it. My family says it's not noticable.
Real people reviews. I love it.
