Well I forgot too....and I used to use this company's foundations but at the time they didn't really have e/s. Interesting read from the Paula Begoun newsletter


Dear Paula,
I just read the May/June issue of the Cosmetics Counter Update. In the Dear Paula section, I was surprised to see the question from the lady asking if there were any eye shadows on the market that contain sunscreen. You wrote that you were not aware of any! I guess you forgot that we make the first cream, creaseproof eye shadows (All Day Eye Color) in deeply pigmented shades that your reader would have loved to know about considering her need for more color. Even better, all of our nine shades have the FDA certified SPF value of 15! Of course we at Illuminare know this was an oversight and I thought I should mention it to you for possible comment in the next CCU issue.

Considering the amount of new products that have come out since the review on our company for the 6th edition of your fantastic book (my personal source of inspiration) it’s not the least bit surprising a good option is overlooked every now and then. Again, we appreciate your help and look forward to the next issue!

Dear Ruth,
Oops! You’re 100% right, we overlooked your company’s option. I will note this and make a correction in the next newsletter. Thanks for the reminder that Illuminare does have a very unique product in this regard! Thank you for understanding the overwhelming task of keeping track of the thousands of products we review in a year.
