Reviews of Illuminare Concealing Mineral Foundation SPF 20 - Portofino Porcelain

This provides excellent coverage and is good for your skin. I had been looking for a mineral liquid foundation that allows skin to breathe.

I use to purchase over the counter concealers and was never satified. I have some sun damage and this product does a great job in covering it up. Im in love with it.

I'm on my third tube and about to buy another. This foundation is versatile and solves a lot of the problems I've always had finding one that works. It's really thick and creamy so works well as a concealer, both under eyes and for redness. You can just dot it on and it blends well. I then mix it with a dot of moisturizer to create a liquid I can blend all over. I top it with a mineral powder just because I really need to layer the coverage and sunscreen. But it never looks thick. This is really great stuff--excellent coverage but never looks tacky. I highly recommend.

I have been using the Illuminare foundations for about a year now and I really, really like them...BUT if you really want the right coverage and color, you need to blend them. For me (light skin, some hyperpigmentation, occasional breakouts) a blend of the Florentine Fair Moisturizing Foundation and the Portofino Porcelain Concealing Foundation is the perfect color and just enough coverage without looking cakey or fake. Just one or the other is either too much or too little coverage. The great thing about these foundations is that they won't break you out, they resist water well, and they look great for 12+ hours. I know they are expensive, and buying more than one makes it really expensive, but if you have sensitive skin and want the coverage of a liquid foundation along with the benefits of mineral make-up, this is well worth it.

I bought the alabaster from Amazon a few months ago, but I decided to get the procelain for the summer months. I have a hard time finding any makeup that does not have any undertones. Otherwise, I look too pink, or worse, there are ones that are just pink. Not this, though. Stays on well, although it does need to be refreshed by the end of the afternoon like other foundations.

This is probably the best product I've used to cover my rosacea, when I take my time and prep my skin correctly. It fills in enlarged pores and covers redness without the lumpy or pasty look that a lot of foundations cause. However, if I apply with my fingers, or don't let other products completely dry before applying this foundation, it looks terrible. It's not a good "on-the-go" fix.

I love the coverage it give w/out being too heavy. This is great for oily skin and also skin that has uneven tones or brown spots.

love it! it hides flaws pretty good. you can spot conceal or use it as as foundation, non-cakey.

I am absolutely ECSTATIC to have found a paraben-free/fragrance-free foundation that actually provides AMAZING coverage (and doesn't cause break outs!!) I swear I have tried pretty much every natural foundation out there (ranging from powder/mineral to liquid to cream), and NONE have even come close to covering my acne/acne scars.

This stuff definitely does the trick! It doesn't feel heavy on my face, looks very natural, stays on super well throughout the day, and even helps control oil build up.

I was worried about finding a good shade in this (due to the limited color selection)-- but much to my relief, Portofino Porcelain matched perfectly.

If it weren't for your website, I would have never stumbled across this fantastic product! Thank you SO MUCH DermStore!!

I adore using just a dab of this all over as a foundation. It covers everything and melts into my skin giving it a natural look. I love it!!

The color was good for me. But it took me a while to really get the hang of just the right way of applying it.

Excellent concealing properties, application is smooth. Coverage lasts all day. Some break-through shine at end of day (I have somewhat oily skin).

This foundation provides excellent coverage without appearing heavy. It is very long lasting and the color stays true

A bit too heavy for foundation, I use this as concealer. The coverage is great and the formulation doesn't cause breakouts.

Does not contain pore-clogging ingredients or any ohter irritants. I mix porcelain with a little floritine flair and matches good. Would reccomend this product for people with rosacea or blemishes
