Why We Love It

Moisturizing Mineral Makeup provides a natural, sheer, hydrating liquid mineral foundation for normal to dry skin. If you've felt frustrated by the aging effect of powder mineral makeup, this is the mineral makeup for you. It provides a light to medium coverage to even skin tone and texture for a soft luminous finish. This helps to lock in moisture and hydrate the skin. *May be set with a translucent face powder for a matte look. 100% oil-free and totally acne-safe.

Comes in five colors (from lightest to darkest):  Amalfi Alabaster, Portofino Porcelain, Florentine Fair, Sienna Sun, Tuscan Toast.

Oil-Free | Broad Spectrum SPF20 | Paraben-Free | Cruelty-Free | Vegan | .5oz (15ml)

Who Will Love It

Anyone looking for an elegant alternative to powder foundation that respects skin and offers SPF. It's safe for those with sensitive skin as well!

Key To Illuminare Formulas

Moisturizing Formula - provides good coverage but is the lightest coverage of the 3 formulas.  It is easiest to apply and blend.

Mattifying Formula - Provides excellent coverage.  It lasts 24 hours and withstands water.  Some people like mixing the Moisturizing and Mattifying formulas.  The Moisturizing helps with application, the Mattifying helps with coverage and staying power.

Concealing Formula - This is a concealer and is rarely needed.  Concealing can be mixed with one of the other formulas or can be dabbed onto a small spot that needs extra coverage.  Most find it too thick for under the eyes. 

Recommended Use

Application Tips For Best Results

Illuminare formulas are very unique and different from anything else you have used before. It is important to use them properly for optimum results. It takes a little getting-used-to because these formulas have a much higher pigment-concentration level than regular, non-mineral foundations. Begin with a clean face and always prep skin with a moisturizer or makeup primer.  Many clients like to mix this formula with AOS Prime & Protect or with Sorella Quench & Protect.

Only a Pea-Sized Amount Is Needed for a Full Application

Fast Application Pad

Squeeze a pea-sized amount to the pointed, beige-fabric side of the pad (the patterned side is only for decoration). Press onto the center of the face and blend outward. This tool helps to make the application of the foundation or blush very quick and easy.

Foundation Brush

Either squeeze a pea-sized amount directly onto the brush and “paint” onto the face and blend, or work in one area at a time, adding more product as necessary. You may also use your fingers to apply the foundation or blush onto the face first, and then blend it out with the brush. The foundation brush offers an “airbrushed” effect and more controlled coverage around the eyes, nose, and lips.

Fingers

Squeeze a pea-sized amount onto the tips of your fingers and rub fingertips together to warm product slightly. Pat onto the center of the face and blend outward.

How To Mix Colors & Formulas

If you are mixing two formulas or colors together, simply squeeze a pea-sized amount of each onto either the application pad or the foundation brush and they will automatically do the blending for you! No mess!

  • Apply each foundation to the pointed end of the fast application pad, press onto your skin, and blend outward.
  • Or apply each foundation directly onto the tip of the foundation brush and blend it directly onto the skin or you can use any type of a plastic lid as a pallet on which to squeeze the foundation. Dip your foundation brush onto the lid and “apply” your customized color/formula onto your face.
  • Beginners often like to mix this foundation with their moisturizer for quickest and easiest application.

Studio Tip

"These foundations apply best immediately after applying moisturizer or primer.  I like to mix equal parts of Prime & Protect, makeup primer, with my Illuminare foundation.  I then apply this with my fingers.  For those areas, like the nose, where I need a bit of extra coverage, I use a tiny bit on a brush and add an extra layer." ~ Jeana
