Bellissima Trucco Minerale Review
I received several products from Bellisima Trucoo Minerale to review about two weeks ago, and I’ve really put them through the ringer.
I’ve spent several days gardening outside in hot weather, and I was caught in a rainstorm.
Through it all these minerals have held up!
I have to say that it was nice to be out in the rain without having to worry about my makeup sliding down my face.
Bellissima Trucco Minerale Eyeshadow Review
I’m in love with the Belissima Trucco Key West Palm eyeshadow, its my favorite color - a “blue-green shade with gold undertones and a shimmer finish.”
Since I loved Key West Palm as soon as I saw it, I had to try it first.
I decided to use the Aruba Sugar Cane as a base, and apply Key West Palm in the crease.
I was shocked at how smooth Key West Palm was when I applied it over the Aruba Sugar Cane.
I guess I don’t notice how smoothly shadow applies usually, but this was unusually smooth, even though I was using my normal eyshadow brush - a MAC 239SE.
All of the eyeshadows that I tried, Aruba Sugar Cane, Bali Lagoon, Bimini Bay, Key West Palm, Kona Coffee, and Montserrat Midnight, applied easily, and lasted throughout the day with no creasing.
Bellissima Trucco Minerale Foundation and Mineral Veil Review
I picked the Bellissima Trucco Minerale Foundation in Light, and the foundation is a perfect match for my skin tone, although if I do get a bit of a tan I’ll need a slightly darker color.
The foundation lasted throughout the sweaty gardening days, and the rainstorm with no problems. I also didn’t experience any breakouts or irritation with the foundation.
The foundation can be applied very sheerly with a brush, but the coverage can also be built up with a flocked sponge, or a concealor or foundation brush if you’d like more coverage.
The matte mineral veil worked very well, although I don’t need to use it with the Bellisima foundation - with most other mineral makeups I do need a need a mineral veil to absorb oil, so it’s nice not to need to take that extra step in the morning.
Bellissima Trucco Minerale Blush and Bronzer Review
I tried the blush in Baja Sunset, and Catalina Sunrise.
Both are beautiful colors that looked great on my fair skin.
I was a little hesitant to try the Catalina Sunrise, a “rich mauve shade with gold and blue undertones” because it was listed as being great for medium or darker skin tones, but it looks great on my pale skin.
Some days I even prefer it to the Baja Sunset, a “rich, pink shade with gold and mauve undertones” that is “perfect for light or medium skin tones.”
Both blushes are beautiful on, apply without streaking, and last.
I also tried the Jamaican Rum Bronzer, which looks dark - when my husband saw it he said “That doesn’t look like something you’d wear,” but with a light touch it gives a great glow to my skin.
Bellissima Trucco Minerale Review
All of my Bellissima Trucco Minerales were in good condition, and were beautifully packaged when I received them.
I loved that they took the time and attention to make the minerals look so good when they arrived.
I especially loved the little black bags on the full sized product - doesn’t it feel elegant?
Each full sized product came in a jar with a sifter top to contain the minerals. The shadow had a sifter with 5 holes, and a piece of clear plastic over the holes, while the blush, bronzer, and foundation had a heavier piece of white paper covering the six or so holes in the sifter.
You’re supposed to take the paper off to open the holes so you can get to the minerals, but I prefer to leave the paper on, and poke holes in a few of the premade holes, so the minerals don’t go flying everywhere when I use them. This also helps you not to have more minerals in the top of the jar than in the bottom if you carry your minerals in your purse, or if you travel with them.
The jars have Bellissima Trucco Minerale on the top and bottom of the lid. They also have the type of product (blush, shadow, etc) the name of the color, weight, ingredients, and the website on the bottom of the lid.
The sample bags also have the same information as the jars do, which I love!
I think it’s very important for etailers to have their name and website on their products, so that people will know what product they’re using, and so they’ll know where to reorder when it’s time to reorder or pick up a few new minerals.
I hate forgetting who made my minerals and not knowing where to reorder!
Overall I was very pleased with Bellisima Trucco Minerale, and I was very impressed with the presentation - it probably also helps that I love purple and black :-).
It’s nice to know that I can turn to this makeup when I want to look good while I’m working in the garden, or if there’s a chance of rain.
Bellissima Trucco Minerales can be bought at Bellissima Trucco Minerale, and at
Blonndie’s Bargains - an Ebay Store.
If you’ve tried them I’d love to hear what you think, so leave a comment and tell us about your experience.


I “accidently” found Bellissima Trucco Minerales on ebay, sent an email regarding color shades and not only received a very quick repy but a pleasant, friendly, informative one and then samples within a few days! I’ve tried most of the mineral makeup lines out there and this is the first full line I’ve purchased and love using! I am fair and many other makeup lines change colors on my skin. Bellissima is soft and natural on, does NOT change color at all, it’s easy and quick to apply, goes on like silk and, as you say, lasts all day! The colors and packaging are beautiful and I’ve finally found a blush that looks like a natural glow rather than a streak of unnatural color–love Baja Sunset! I also tend to have darkness under my eyes and just a soft brush of the concealer and it’s gone! I bought the full kit that arrived like a gift with all it’s little bags and brushes. I use the Bermuda Sands eye shadow as a shadow base and it’s lovely (softest pink). I’m green eyed so am partial to Bali Lagoon for the crease and as a liner. I look forward to trying additional colors. Within a week, I had “figured out” how little of the product I needed and how little effort I needed to apply the product and now my makeup is done within a few minutes! I must also mention that the amount of product you receive is outstanding and the exceptional customer service is an ADDED BONUS!! No more liquid makeups for me! I’m definitely a Bellissima convert!

Wanda, thank you for sharing your Bellissima Trucco Minerales review with us, and for sharing how you use the colors.
It is amazing to see how little of them you actually need
I don’t think I’ve ever used up a whole jar of any mineral product other than foundation and mineral veil, because you only need a little bit to get a beautiful color.
I just remembered that I forgot to add that I actually applied Somme Institutes Skincare Double Defender Moisturizer with SPF 30 over my Bellissima minerals, and they still looked great.
The blush faded a little bit, but it still looked good.
Usually once I apply sunscreen over my makeup it’s shot for the day, so I was fully prepared to redo my foundation if I needed too, and I was so happy that I didn’t have to.

Greetings from the Philippines! MMU (Mineral Makeup)are all in range nowadays.Top brands are selling their own Mineral Makeup lines. I hurriedly email Judy Hogan of Bellissima Trucco Minerale to inquire about her products. Eventhough there are lots of brands to choose online, I think it was a right choice of choosing her products. WHY? First:PRODUCT QUALITY; Second:SERVICE/TRUSTWORTHY and THIRD:PRICE.
I was very satisfied with my purchase, also I was very impress with your delivery time. Everything was good and I’m happy with your services. Amazing/Quality Products.Great Service. Fast Shipping. Two thumbs up for you, Bellissima Trucco Minerale.

Thanks Ruth, do you have a favorite color, or combination?
Comment by Sarah — April 10, 2009 @ 9:32 am
Judy gave me lots of freebies “freebies galore” of different shades of eyeshadow. I’m using the Kona Coffee and Bahama Beach combination of eyeshadow color.I love the universal concealer, the calypso dust (the shimmer shimmer glittering effect)and the medium shade of foundation.
I always want to look natural as possible. It looks like you’re not wearing anything but you’re glowing.
