I'm pretty sure that it only lasts 8hrs if you use the full system. Like on the infomercials you have to use the skin prep, the foundation and then the mineral veil. I have their foundation and it seems to last all day for me but I use MAC foundation prep under it.

I, personally, have used Bare Minerals and found the same results: not enough coverage to begin with and also the coverage not lasting long enough. As a last resort, try applying Bare Minerals soon after you put on your moisturizer while your face is still damp. Otherwise, switch to M.A.C. Cosmetics Studio Fix powder in either a pressed compact or loose powder. I love the coverage: so sheer and natural, yet it covers well. You can find it in any major department store or on-line -- there are lots of shades, too -- easy to find just what's right for you!

Use a really good moisturizer, (I like Neutrogena intensified day cream..) right before you put on the makeup and put on the minerals before it soaks fully into your skin. Something like powder foundation needs something to cling to otherwise it will trypically slip off throughout the day and make sure you are using the mineral veil!!! It's seriously going to help it stay on!! Good Luck!

I'm suggesting you find something else, Bare Minerals is NOT all it's hyped to be! Some blotting papers might help if your face is oily, I've never had much luck with this stuff.

Use a good moisturizer at bedtime and before applying makeup. Apply the mineral veil before and after the foundation.

How long does it last? Just curious because I was thinking of getting it. Oh, maybe you're not using the Mineral Veil on top?

Make sure you use moisturizer/primer!
