Wow, that was SUPER speedy delivery :lol:

Andrea, if you haven't read over the last what, 140+ pages, there is something you need to know........

There are little stickers covering the sifter holes on the little containers (unless you have the new closeable sifters), believe it or not some of us (me) didn't know this

Anyone have anything else to add to the above for a first time EM user?? :lol:

Oh such a great point Julie!

The one thing I think of most when I first tried the foundation is that it really has to be buffed in a lot! Seems everyone has to play around with getting that right...so don't get frustrated Andrea we have tips for getting the right color too!

Another question......do you gals use lighted makeup mirrors or just your bathroom mirror and lighting?

No, I tried using one in the past (a looooong time ago) and couldn't stand seeing all my flaws. For me it's better not to see so many details. My makeup mirror was magnified....ooooh scary!

:lol: yes good point, the stickers are completely invisible--I found them purely by accident, lol. As you have seen the sample jars are very tiny, so I tap out the minerals onto a margarine lid or if you have a slick paper plate you can use that to swirl your brush into the minerals.

Another question......do you gals use lighted makeup mirrors or just your bathroom mirror and lighting?

I've been thinking about getting one, but I've just used the lighting in my bathroom. I have pretty good lighting in there (although NOT natural, lol). I DO have a magnifying mirror to do my mascara and eyeliner because otherwise I will poke my eye. :P

I would say use less than you think you should. Layer, rather than spackle.

Yes, for sure don't spackle! ( :lol: Jess) Light thin layers built up to your desired coverage is the way to go with the minerals.

Definitely familiarize yourself with the technique "to buff/buffing" (good one Joni :D )

Ok, I ventured out and got (gasp, choke) makeup brushes. I got the Sonia Kashuk natural.....I think.....they are the little bit less expensive than the sythetic. I got a 8 brush kit, plus a powder brush for the foundation.

I have a couple of her brushes and really like them, although I have to admit that I haven't used them much, lol.

Where did you get the brushes? Can you tell me roughly how much they cost?

Maybe II could check it out online. I'm looking for more brushes, but I think I want some smaller than the EM brushes. I like the kabuki's but the one I have is really just too big for me. Well, it's fine for all over the face applications, but I really need a kabuki type blush brush that's about half the size, lol!

Let us know how you make out using them and your new EM makeup, of course!

OK, girls, you can unstrap those trigger fingers. The new special is up and looks pretty good. It is enough to entice me to place my order. You can order from either site, but you can't order from both and combine. At least that is what I read today. Still no kits on the new site, so I will order from the old site.

With all orders over $34 (not including shipping) until May 8th you will receive new blushes SALON FUN, a beautiful vibrant fruity pinky red that makes the perfect year around shade; RASPBERRY SHERBET, a glorious rich deep raspberry with hints of sparkly boysenberry; as well as the perfect all around base color SPRING CLEAN with just the right amount of iridescence -- these are all in MINI SIZES, which means they are going to last forever!!! We will have an image up shortly! Thanks so much. This is our pre-website launch special.

Thanks WW340!!! I like the sound of those sample colors.

Always one to analyze every word, I can't help but notice the "pre-website launch special" Could this mean there will be a website launch special that will be even bigger and more special?!?! :blink:

About $32 for the 8 brush kit with case and an additional powder brush for the foundation. I got them at Target.

I tried the fairly light I think it was and it seemed pretty good for a match. If it's the sandy fair that is lighter than it looks too light. Course I didn't use Donna's tip about the lid or plate so I was just tapping the powder onto the brush at this point. :P

I like the blush. :)

Heading out the door pretty soon so I'm hoping I'll have time to put some on before I run out of time.......

On the sale......BOOHOO.....we are totally and completely out of money until payday. :( Then we're still out of money. :lol:

Your welcome, Julie. I am glad they are doing blushes, and they sound like good ones. I wish the pictures were up

You may well be right. That could be the reason for no discount this time. You know our motto though "order now AND order later.

You haven't had time to play with your EM yet. Those kind of thoughts will be fleeting as you fill your cart like a good little addict.

Oooh, lots of excitement in cultville!!!

I see that Andrea has tried and likes our GLUTEN FREE minerals.

:lol:

I see that a new special is up...must go place an order! :P I was going to wait for the kits to be available on the new site, but there are some things I can get from the old site that will go in a kit. Sheesh, I put everything in my cart at the new site on Friday (ALMOST hit the submit button, lol) and it came to $94. So, definitely I'm going to wait for the kits, lol. Still, I can always use an extra silk dust, and I want a full size of my new favorite foundation, so I think I can fill a kit on the old site, and still have enough left to fill a kit or two on the new site.

:lol:

I've decided my most favorite look: Any of my four foundations, but probably Sunkissed Fair the most, Nick Nack, Ginger Peach, Gingerbread man as an eyeliner, my brown/black mascara and my plum frost lipstick. Yes, very nice, lol.

      Newly diagnosed mam to coeliac 11 year old

      By trents · Posted

      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.

      Newly diagnosed mam to coeliac 11 year old

      By Dizzyma · Posted

      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

      Severe severe mouth pain

      By Russ H · Posted

      Hi Charlie, You sound like you have been having a rough time of it. Coeliac disease can cause a multitude of skin, mouth and throat problems. Mouth ulcers and enamel defects are well known but other oral conditions are also more common in people with coeliac disease: burning tongue, inflamed and swollen tongue, difficulty swallowing, redness and crusting in the mouth corners, and dry mouth to name but some. The link below is for paediatric dentistry but it applies to adults too.  Have you had follow up for you coeliac disease to check that your anti-tTG2 antibodies levels have come down? Are you certain that you not being exposed to significant amounts of gluten? Are you taking a PPI for your Barrett's oesophagus? Signs of changes to the tongue can be caused by nutritional deficiencies, particularly iron, B12 and B9 (folate) deficiency. I would make sure to take a good quality multivitamin every day and make sure to take it with vitamin C containing food - orange juice, broccoli, cabbage etc.  Sebaceous hyperplasia is common in older men and I can't find a link to coeliac disease.   Russ.   Oral Manifestations in Pediatric Patients with Coeliac Disease – A Review Article
