I have been using this for years and it is one of my favorite makeup products. First of all it is HUGE - at least 4, maybe 5, inches across and it lasts forever - even with daily use. Second it imparts a beautiful perfect color - it just slightly enhances your skin tone - no orange, no “fake tan” - it isn’t even obvious that you have used it - just a touch of color - a healthy glow. TMineral Makeup and Dry Skin I know many ladies with dry skin have been very frustrated in their mineral makeup adventures. For some users with dry skin their minerals dry out and they feel they are just caked on - even after using lots of moisturizer before applying. It looks like help has arrived in the form of Serious SKin Care’s Olive Oil primer for dry skin. I noticed this over on HSN and found both the primer and primer and Prominerals have received so many positive reviews they are “customer picks”.

This time I think I got it right. Seriesse International was established by Jennifer Flavin-Stallone, who is featured on HSN.
