A cosmetic method comprises topically applying the composition to the skin, so that the method is useful for veiling defects on surfaces of the skin, especially decreasing glossiness of the skin and/or veiling pores, shadows under the eyes, freckles, wrinkles and/or fine lines. Hemispherical particles are especially used in the hollow sphere component.
