I'm sorry to have to say that Veil didn't work at all covering an area on the top of each of my feet where there are a great many tiny thread veins. I applied Veil carefully, and exactly as directed, but the cream just gave a very 'chalky' look to my feet, drawing just as much attention to the blemishes as when the veins were uncovered. I found Veil to be no better than a very cheap concealer made by Lottie which one can buy from Superdrug - it's not successful either, but it 'covers' just as well as Veil. Maybe I chose the wrong colour Veil but I don't feel I want to spend more money buying the darker shades (I am generally light-skinned) only to find they don't cover well either! VERY disappointed in Veil. It was suggested to me by the nurse at a well known cosmetic surgeon's London practice - she had heard of it but didn't know anyone who had used it - I said I would let her know how it had, or hadn't, worked for me. Sadly for me, it hasn't worked.
