Aromaleigh Illuminator Finishing Powder- Our "original" finisher!
Item#:FULL-ILLUMINATOR
Price:$14.50

Rating:



A translucent, sheer loose mineral cosmetic powder, that contains reflective minerals to give your skin a radiant appearance. Fine lines and wrinkles are less dominant, and a fine finish is revealed.

We are frequently asked if this product is like Bare Escentual's popular cornstarch-based "Mineral Veil". It is not- in fact, it is nothing like Mineral Veil, which is intended to tone down glow and mattify the skin. In contrast. Aromaleigh Illuminator Finishing Powder adds a subtle, soft glow, or illuminating effect to the skin. While it can be used as a finishing powder, it can also be used on its own if you have very even skintone, or use a liquid foundation underneath it. It can also be used over Aromaleigh Voil� or Glissade Mineral Foundation Powders.

Please note: This product is most well-suited to pale-medium skin colors, as it can lend a chalky appearance to deeper skin colors.

Ingredients: Sericite mica (CI 77019), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499)

Size: .75 oz. net volume (approximately 8 grams net weight) is packaged in a clear plastic plastic powder sifter jar. Sample Baggies: 1/2 teaspoon.

Awesome!

I love this powder!! I love the glow I get from it, my skin looks amazing! I bought a sample and knew after trying it once that I had to have a full size and it's a big full size too. There is no skimping on the product, the jar is jam packed with powder, which I love. It's nice to get what you pay for! :)
Great foundation additive

I've tried some of the others and come back to this. It just works -- gives the nice finished, blended look i want, goes on easily, and lasts a long time.

Wonderful!

I use this for special occasions: after I apply my Glissade as usual with a flocked makeup sponge, I add an extremely light layer of Illuminator on my face, neck and chest with a large brush. It is well named - it is nearly invisible, but it adds a beautiful illumination to your skin. I'm mid 30's, and was worried that this would look like I was trying too hard, but it really is a subtle, perfect finish.

I really like this product. It is very light and not too sparkly. Great for everyday.
Love it

Comments:

I love the finish this product gives. I do not like that the size of the container/amount of product has decreased in time.

Note from Aromaleigh- we changed the jar size 5 years ago from the jar we offered it in when we introduced it 6 years ago.
Illuminator Finishing Powder
By Deanna on November 5, 2007

Comments:

I love to use the Illuminator Finishing Powder under my eyes to add highlights. I have also added just a hint of it to my mineral foundation to help reflect light. It's the perfect addition to the mineral foundation.
addicted to Illuminator

Comments:

I am totally addicted to Illuminator. I use it in so many ways. I'd be devestated if I could not get Illuminator powder. It is my second skin for sure.
Flawless

Comments:

This finishing powder is the best I have come across. Leaves my skin feeling great and looking flawless. Hides many imperfections and leaves a smooth, silky feeling on my skin. Lasts all day long, even after perspiring and blotting.
LOVELY

I love this stuff! It's perfect for my shine and cover-up...looks perfect with my bronzer!
Perfect
By Audrey on September 10, 2007

Comments:

This is the perfect compliment to the mineral foundation. it gives just a bit more polish to a great base. Nice for a 40 something girl with a bit less natural glow than she used to have. Not at all shiny.
cool illumination

aaahhhhh..........

Comments:

I must say, since trying mineral makeup I have tried many finishing powders. I started with BE and that quickly became my fav. Well, move over BE b/c the illuminator from Aromaleigh is great. It has a very slight shimmer to it which I absolutely love. It seems to deflect the light from the very few eye wrinkles I have, which makes me very happy. ;)
NICE TOUCH

SO MUCH BETTER THAN ALL THE OTHERS I'VE TRIED. SO LIGHT AND YET SO FLATTERING FOR ALL SKIN COLORS!
Picture perfect

Soft subtle glow
By Danielle on April 10, 2007

Comments:

I add a bit of this with my Voile & Glissade mix and it gives this subtle youthful healthy glow that looks especially nice under low-light conditions. I also use this alone for highlighting the bridge of my nose and such. However, because my job requires that I take photos often, I've noticed that this is too glowy under camera flash, even when mixed with foundation powder and at small amounts. So don't wear this all over when getting your picture taken, only where you need highlighting. But under normal circumstances, it gives a soft beautiful effect.
Does life really get any better than this???

I'm in heavin ladies...I honestly didn't think Mineral Make-Up could get any better - because it was already sooo incredible, well Aromaleighs anyway, since this is all I use! I use the Glissade - straight 2Y and then put the Angel Illuminator Finishing Powder on and spritz with my floral water blend and I tell ya what...I LOOOOOVE IT!!! It just gives you that fresh, dewy look that's not shiney or glittery...it's just a nice, fresh, clean, candel light look that everyone complaments you on.
A Stellar Finish
By Jenn M. on March 19, 2007

Comments:

Armomaliegh's Illuminator Finishing Powder provides a superb finishing touch. I use it over my Glissade foundation and its sheen makes my face look picture-perfect. It also reflects light around my small scars, so they're not as noticable. My face just wouldn't look the same without it.

As always, the Illuminator Finishing Powder is very easy to apply, and depending on how light or dense I apply I can achieve many different looks.....
Illuminating Finiahing Powder
By Janet on March 13, 2007

Comments:

Love this. I use this powder around the areas where I have fine lines and wrinkles - and poof - they disappear to the naked eye. Very light and fluffy - easy to use. Has enough shine but not overly glossy, just very soft.
Love this stuff
By B on February 4, 2007

Comments:

I mix a touch of this in with my foundation powder and get a great soft focus finish with no shine. I find it helps my MMU glide on much easier. I also mix it with porcelain powder as a finishing powder for quick touch ups later in the day. Great for my oily skin and my favorite product in this line so far.
Lovely!
By shari on January 12, 2007

Comments:

I have very oily skin, so I try to avoid things with "shine." But this illuminator powder gives a lovely dewy finish. So many finishing powders give a flat, matte look which can be mask-like. This powder is gorgeous...goes on smoothly and you will look pretty all day!
Holy Grail powder
By Jane on January 7, 2007

Comments:

Well life would not be nice without Illuminator powder. I use it mixed with silk powder and a tad of Porcelaine powder as a powder makeup primer, mixed in with mmu to carry in my purse for touch ups, and finally as a base for my holy grail fnishing powder mix. I use a base of Illuminator powder with some coquilles,perles and the new Divine powder as a finishing powder. This leaves a soft velvety finish. Just the loveliest look.. spritz lightly with rosewater etc. and makeup stays on alll day.

Airbrushing in a jar!
By Bridget on December 15, 2006

Comments:

Illuminator is a beautiful finishing powder - applied over foundation powder OR bare skin, it leaves behind sheer softness. All those little texture issues - scarring, enlarged pores, expression crinkles - a blurred away with just a quick dusting of this magical powder. I don't want to be without it!
