"I love the Illuminaire liquid mineral makeup. I purchased it for the first time several years ago and liked it but being retired I didn't feel the need for a higher priced foundation. I have also tried the mineral powders but having dry skin with age and living in Scottsdale, Arizona, they were too drying for me. Illuminaire Flawless Finish foundation and blush go on smoothly and do not melt off in the hot, hot summer days here. I am now purchasing the Florentine Fair blush that was out of stock when I placed my original order."
