- “My experience at Blue Illusion has been Rewarding, Happy and great for the soul. I have been with the Company for approximately 14 years and have worked and met with some wonderful people over this time. Staff members to work with and customers to share the Blue Illusion image. Some customers have turned into lifelong friends. Having ladies pop by on a weekly visit and just say hi as they pass by makes you feel part of the community.
