FYI if you use original Mineral Veil

GingerPeach · ‎03-12-2010

be aware that Bare Minerals has had a mix-up.

A batch of "original" (the one without any color) was mismarked. This mismarked batch has an orangey tint.

I had ordered some "original" directly from Bare Minerals and got the orangey version. They refunded my purchase.

I just ordered two from QVC and one was the real original, but the other was the orangey tint (which I will be sending back).

ETA: Here's a picture of both. Both say "original" but one is orangey.

(Sorry for the upside down.)

Thank you for this post! I thought something was off, I ordered the TSV kit in Medium

Beige and just opened the mineral veil and it is indeed Orange! I will be packing this kit back up. I don't need a supersized version of orange mineral veil, what a disappointment!!!!

I thought the mineral veil in my TSV looked off. What should it have been marked?

I just saw this and checked mine since I am well stocked I hadn't opened. Mine is orange. I wonder if they will just credit for the bad piece rather than send the whole thing back which is crazy!

I have some of this and am using it. It does NOT look orangey on your face

Just got my 2nd shipment and the mineral veil is still wrong! I kept the first one since I had removed the seal. I don't want to keep the wrong shade. Does anyone know if I will need to send the entire kit back?

I realize in the big scheme of things going on right now this is minor but I would like to have the correct merchandise.
