Colleen, that really is a master piece. Great job, just too funny. You should post that on the EM forum.

It is disappointing that the new colors won't be released with the website. Oh, well, that will be good for my credit card health.

Okay, today's revisit: Good China and Comfy, both applied with fingers, lol. I did Good China all over the lids and then a little Comfy on the outside corner/crease. Looks pretty good and very natural.

Just something to point out that this thread belongs in the medication section....

I had some huge nasty rash on my face and managed to get in to see a dermatologist. After getting a list of things I couldn't eat and couldn't put on my face, I asked about make up. He said

"Loose mineral powders are fine. Just no creams or pressed powders."

So those of you with sensitive skin that were debating the pressed powders (as I was), stop it.

Zoiks, Jestgar. I hope the derm was able to get you fixed up. It's great that the doctor said mineral makeup is OK. Maybe he will write us all a prescription for it so we can write it off on our taxes. :lol:

Girls, yesterday was SUCH a bad eyeshadow day. I tried using swing set as a base under cypress. It looked fine in my bathroom at home. But when I got to work and saw myself in the mirror it was quite a different matter. It was so dark and gray! I looked like something out of the Michael Jackson Thriller video. Very corpse-y. I won't be doing that again. Today I did better with birthday cake as a base under shopping spree and in the garden as a liner. But now I am having a bad hair day. I just can't win.

I can't decide if I am looking forward to the new website anymore. If there's nothing new to be had, what's the point?

:lol: !!! Yeah, I keep looking at those but then change my mind, lol.

I think I am still looking forward to it...it will give me something to keep myself occupied until the new colors and products are out, lol.

Yea, I did the dark colors one night too...by the time I got to the party I was going to, I looked 100% DEAD! LOL! It was horrible.

I now only use light colors, although it is limiting.

Oh no Colleen, sorry about your bad eye shadow and hair days :lol: At least you get points for trying something new!

The new website to me isn't really a big deal, I am anxiously awaiting the NEW products...which I am beginning to think don't even exist :lol:

Jestgar Rising Star

Yes, thank heavens. I can still look like a tart, even if I can't eat one.

Well guys, ONE day to go...

Woo hoo! Big deal, right?

dlp252 Apprentice

Yeah, I'm still looking forward to the new site even if there aren't any new products...I'm geeky that way I guess, lol.

So today's revisit:

Hot Chocolate and Mistletoe. I applied lots of Hot Chocolate with my index finger and a little Mistletoe at the lash line with my pinkie, lol. Very nice. I'm really liking look with the finger application. :P That, again, begged for mascara and eyeliner so I finished it off with a little mascara and some Starry Night as a liner.

Hi girls!

I'm looking forward to trying this make-up out at some point soon. I think I guessed at some foundations to try for the sampler.

It's been so long since I've worn make-up.......it will be interesting.

So glad you are going to give it a try Andrea :D

When you are ready to fill your sample order we are here to help you through the process.

Mineral make-up is also a little different from other types of make-up so there are some basic application tips to share.

Oh how FUN!!!! Andrea is coming to play with us! :lol:

There will be new products on the site. All the pressed powders you voted for, a ton of new colors, blue and green eye shadows, plus all the functions and things you all asked for to make color selection easier. The site will be easier to use and a lot more fun. So please keep all this in mind.

Joni!!!! Good news about your cart, what a relief!! :D Now you don't have to fill it all over again.

I can't believe the day we have been waiting for soooooooo long is finally here. I lost my excitement at this very moment, but I am hoping it will return later today when i am looking over all the new colors and products :D:D

cruelshoes Enthusiast

I too am very excited. Our good news comes with a bit of bad news, however. In the comments on the last news entry, it was stated that they will be putting in all their efforts on the new website, and there won't be a new special right away. I am excited to browse the new stuff, though. I definitely need to order a new sample kit soon, though. I am getting overrun with all the concealers, though. I have one in every color now, and I really only use the multitasking and the sunlight.

      Hi @Dizzyma I note what @trents has commented about you possibly posting from the UK.  Just to let you know that am a coeliac based in the UK, so if that is the case, do let me know if can help you with any questions on the NHS provision for coeliacs.    If you are indeed based in the UK, and coeliac disease is confirmed, I would thoroughly recommend you join Coeliac UK, as they provide a printed food and drink guide and also a phone app which you can take shopping with you so you can find out if a product is gluten free or not. But one thing I would like to say to you, no matter where you live, is you mention that your daughter is anxious.  I was always a bit of a nervous, anxious child but before my diagnosis in mid-life my anxiety levels were through the roof.   My anxiety got steadily better when I followed the gluten-free diet and vitamin and mineral deficiencies were addressed.  Anxiety is very common at diagnosis, you may well find that her anxiety will improve once your daughter follows a strict gluten-free diet.

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Dizzyma! I'm assuming you are in the U.K. since you speak of your daughter's celiac disease blood tests as "her bloods".  Has her physician officially diagnosed her has having celiac disease on the results of her blood tests alone? Normally, if the ttg-iga blood test results are positive, a follow-up endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for damage would be ordered to confirm the results of "the bloods". However if the ttg-iga test score is 10x normal or greater, some physicians, particularly in the U.K., will dispense with the endoscopy/biopsy. If there is to be an endoscopy/biopsy, your daughter should not yet begin the gluten free diet as doing so would allow healing of the small bowel lining to commence which may result in a biopsy finding having results that conflict with the blood work. Do you know if an endoscopy/biopsy is planned? Celiac disease can have onset at any stage of life, from infancy to old age. It has a genetic base but the genes remain dormant until and unless triggered by some stress event. The stress event can be many things but it is often a viral infection. About 40% of the general population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, for most, the genes remain dormant.  Celiac disease is by nature an autoimmune disorder. That is to say, gluten ingestion triggers an immune response that causes the body to attack its own tissues. In this case, the attack happens in he lining of the small bowel, at least classically, though we now know there are other body systems that can sometimes be affected. So, for a person with celiac disease, when they ingest gluten, the body sends attacking cells to battle the gluten which causes inflammation as the gluten is being absorbed into the cells that make up the lining of the small bowel. This causes damage to the cells and over time, wears them down. This lining is composed of billions of tiny finger-like projections and which creates a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients from the food we eat. This area of the intestinal track is where all of our nutrition is absorbed. As these finger-like projections get worn down by the constant inflammation from continued gluten consumption before diagnosis (or after diagnosis in the case of those who are noncompliant) the efficiency of nutrient absorption from what we eat can be drastically reduced. This is why iron deficiency anemia and other nutrient deficiency related medical problems are so common in the celiac population. So, to answer your question about the wisdom of allowing your daughter to consume gluten on a limited basis to retain some tolerance to it, that would not be a sound approach because it would prevent healing of the lining of her small bowel. It would keep the fires of inflammation smoldering. The only wise course is strict adherence to a gluten free diet, once all tests to confirm celiac disease are complete.

      Hi all, I have so many questions and feel like google is giving me very different information. Hoping I may get some more definite answers here. ok, my daughter has been diagnosed as a coeliac as her bloods show anti TTG antibodies are over 128. We have started her  on a full gluten free diet. my concerns are that she wasn’t actually physically sick on her regular diet, she had tummy issues and skin sores. My fear is that she will build up a complete intolerance to gluten and become physically sick if she has gluten. Is there anything to be said for keeping a small bit of gluten in the diet to stop her from developing a total intolerance?  also, she would be an anxious type of person, is it possible that stress is the reason she has become coeliac? I read that diagnosis later in childhood could be following a sickness or stress. How can she have been fine for the first 10 years and then become coeliac? sorry, I’m just very confused and really want to do right by her. I know a coeliac and she has a terrible time after she gets gluttened so just want to make sure going down a total gluten free road is the right choice. thank you for any help or advise xx
