BareMinerals’ Siren of the Sea kit

This kit was initially a Sephora exclusive, with Ulta and QVC getting their own similar versions. A year later, this kit was available through QVC. The big huge deal here was supposed to be the hydrating products: the mineral veil, and the blush. Most people, though, were interested in the first High Shine color to be released! (I know I couldn’t care less about “hydrating” loose-powder products. That always made me wonder what they added, and would that effectively give the products a definite shelf life.)
