A natural mineral base that is an excellent light beige to cool olive for fair to light skin tones. This can be used by those with NO predominance to pink, peach or yellow, but more with neutral undertones. It is an excellent mineral makeup shade for lightening, softening, correcting and neutralizing other shades with different or stronger undertones. It can be lightened further by using our MINERAL BASE CLEAR. Or you can darken with our other olive shades HANNAH or VIVIANA depending on your preference in facial undertone. To stay within same undertone darken with OLIVETTA. Not recommended as a pre conceal foundation shade to neutralize redness since this can cause a gray pall to the face if you do not have OLIVE skin tone. It is best to use JENNIFER or FIORELLA!

I am 70 years young with good skin to begin with. I found the Bianca shade with Velvet formula perfect for me. I am quite fair with more of a light beige rose complexion rather than olive. Be careful as the warning goes not to apply too much.
This is hands down the best makeup I have ever used. It takes only seconds to apply with my Jumbo Buffer brush.
Great color for my very fair olive, winter coloring. Still needed a little boost so I add a little Viviana....
Love the feel and the coverage....
This is a great color for those with very fair olive skin.
It is still a little bit too light for me, but definitely the closest match to all the other products I have tried.
It is a little hard to apply even with the damp brush method. I will try to mix it with my moisturizer to see if I have better results. But I like the color.
This is the perfect shade for my winter complexion. I have pale olive skin. It is also a great spot concealer color for my summer tan when I wear Hannah. The texture of this foundation is better than any other mineral foundation I have used. It glides on easily and covers nicely without showing on my mature skin. The color looks very natural and not at all pasty or chalky because the undertones are right. Skin feels really smooth and soft. There is no shimmer on my skin. At my age, I am striving for a hint of dewiness and no longer want completely matte. I like to apply it mixed with the Grecian Secret Body Souffle to make a tinted moisturizer, which looks unbelievably natural yet calms my rosacea beautifully. I really like this product. It mixes nicely with Jennifer for a lighter tone and it mixes well to lighten up Hannah when needed transitioning to summer color.
This foundation had more shimmer than I prefer. I felt that it made me look like a creepy doll, as if my skin was plastic. I like a more matte finish.
OUR RESPONSE
Kristine we are sorry you were less than pleased with the finish of the formula you chose. This can all be reduced by using one of our mineral veils or selecting a different finish depending on your skin issues. Velvet offers a more matte and opaque finish, but it is geared toward a certain skin type. Although we try to provide products that are consistent with a womans preferences, we also realize we cannot be all things to all women and we are disappointed we were unable to satisfy you with finding your perfect makeup. We do thank you for sampling our products and giving your honest opinion. We always appreciate feedback whether it is good or bad so that we may continue to improve where and when we can.
