Has anyone tried Sheer Cover Mineral Make-up for thier wedding? What do you think of it?

Question

Does this product actually look good or is it the same as regular make-up? Do you really have the healthy, glowing look in the pictures?

Answer 1

I use Bare Minerals every day as my regular makeup which is the same thing as Sheer Cover. It isn't the same as regular makeup--it's lighter and more sheer. For a wedding you need something with a bit more staying power. It's gotta stay on for close to 12 hrs, though hundreds of hugs, and cover up any last minute pimples you may have gotten with stress.

I used Merle Norman's pancake makeup, with my regular eyeshadow and mascara. But any makeup with good coverage would work.

Though I will say, "a bit more". Often brides, b/c they will be center stage and hundreds of pictures will be taken, confuse it with stage makeup and the pictures end up looking like you are some sorta Priscilla Presley. Go heavier than you do for everyday, but not as if you will be on stage.

Answer 2

the only thing I can advise on wedding makeup is be sure that your foundation doesn't have any SPF in it, if it does your face will appear whiter in the pictures because the sunscreen reflects the light. Also stay away from moisturizer with sunscreen in it.

Answer 3

i have not used sheer cover mineral but i do use bare minerals. but like with any makeup you need to adjust on you apply it when planning on pictures. such as darker lipstick and more blush.

Answer 4

i got it for my wedding, to practice (i don't use make-up often), and i didn't see the difference between that and regular make-up. i don't know how it looks in pictures, but i did not see a difference..
good luck

Answer 5
