I was really thinking hard about what "eotd" stood for...........and I finally figured it out! :lol:

Also, I see that the special has been extended to the 21st, with a new freebie blush being offered with orders after the 19th.

Thanks Jess! WOW, that first set of photos is GORGEOUS! I can never get mine to look like that so I gave up and just use one color now. :lol:

Yea, that was pretty much my response - Wow! I could never do that

OK, I really do hate to complain, but I am going to anyway.....

I HATE THE NEW SITE!!!!!!!!

I have spent like the last hour and a half trying to fill my cart, and it's tedious enough to select the colors and drag them to the carts in order to fill all the kits, by the time I had 2 filled and was on to the next thing they had been removed. I now have one of those headaches from concentrating and working at something so hard! :rolleyes: So I am giving up for now and will return to it later.

Does anyone have both Samba Lessons and Starry Eyed? They look and sound so similar, I'm wondering if I even need or want both?

And do we get a brush with the mini eye shadow kits? It just doesnt mention it, that I can see anyway.

I have both. I really love Samba Lessons...it's a dark sparkly brown. Starry Eyed is more mauvy brown...it's also dark and sparkly. Had I not just gone to the site to check them out I was about to say they aren't even close, lol... IMHO you really need both! :lol:

Yeah, the new site has its moments!

I guess that was a dumb question of me to ask, for two reasons..........1) of course you have both Donna, the girl who has every color :lol: and 2) of course I need both :lol:

That is one of the mottos isn't it? More is better?!

Yes julie you need both colors, i love them both. Im with donna and have every color, well besides the new blue ones lol.

I would love to make another order for the new color lol. But since i still have not even gotten the one i ordered so long ago, i doubt im going to order. I have emailed them 4 times and get no repsonse. I emailed them last week about an technical problem and they never responded then either. Im really get angry. I really dotn think it should take over 10 days to get here, when mango got hers after what 5 days in another country.

What are the other blues you got that are similar?

Here are all the blues I got.

Plane View - more to the gray side

Starlit - a blue/gray/green mix with a silvery sheen

Happy Go Lucky - more toward the periwinkle side, but not nearly as dramatic as the picture on the EM site

Bubble Tea - a lot like starlit with more turquise in it

Bird Bath - a grayer blue

I chose bubble tea on the lid with cliche as a base today. Bubble tea is a really nice turquoise with silver thing. Cliche is the base I have been searching for. Less pink than good china, but with a nice sparkle, not as gray as rare silk. I think Cliche will be my new favorite base.

sorry, it's eotd

I get it now. When I first saw EOTW, I thought it was short for "End of the World". You know how dramatic some people get on the EM site about their makeup. :lol: Great thread with lots of good ideas. I will never be able to recreate them to her level of detail, but good ideas to be sure.

I have both of those. Samba lessons is a sparkly brown. Starry eyed is a sparkly brown with a purple tone to it. I use starry eyed when I want tomething more subtle, and with the cooler eyeshadows like the purples. The eyeshadow kit I just got did come with a brush. I thought it would not, since they don't mention the brush on the site, and the cost of the kit went down by $1. Unexpected and great!

I accidentally ordered my order twice. :unsure:

And I need new summer foundation (who'd've thought with how little time I spend outside? :huh: )... and a new brush. Hm... I'm thinkin' I'm gonna be ordering again no matter what. :P:rolleyes:

Colleen, this was incredibly helpful! Some of these colors I was on the fence about, and now with your description I can narrow down my choices. Cliche definitely caught my eye and was in my cart, it sounded like it would make the prefect base and you've just confirmed that :)

Good to know the mini eye kit comes with a brush. That is awesome it's a dollar cheaper and still including the brush!

I also thought that the blues were very similar, but when you get them on, they have some differences. All great colors. I totally love 10 Items Or Less! And Well Being is an awesome liner, as is Mystic Night! I have on Mistletoe again today, I can't stay away from it now, I think it's my new favorite. I really like Launch Party, for a blush and shadow, and Natural lip gloss is so nice with the bright colors.

Thanks for the advice on the splotchy eye color. I've been applying foundation to my lids now and haven't had it happen again, and the shadow seems to las longer.

I was glad there was still a brush with the mini eyeshadow kit, because I got an angled brush this time that I adore.

I feel another order coming on...... :P

Mango04 Enthusiast

Julie - I know our fellow wise cult members have already given you an answer (and you already knew the answer anyway :rolleyes::lol: ), but yes...you absolutely need samba and starry.

I like starry eyed for an everyday eyeliner. It has that dark, yet still natural thing going on that EM does so well. Samba lessons is a bit richer, and somehow goes on thicker for me. It's more of a nighttime, dramatic type of look.

Does anyone else wish they would use the pearl concealer formula in the eyeshadows? I've been using pearl pick me up pink (ppmup lol) on my eyes and I love it. Sunlight pearl and ppmup remind me of Benefit moonbeam and highbeam, if anyone's ever used Benefit.....

PERFECT cult-like behavior! :lol:

Yes, executing the cult motto of "buy now AND buy later" with precision!

AndreaB Contributor

Julie,

Sounds like a nice order. :)

I like reading the reviews.......now IF I could only remember them whenever I place another order. :P

Thanks Andrea, I'll post my reviews when I get everything and the experimenting begins :lol:

It's a good idea to take notes when someone raves about something, or mentions something that you are interested, otherwise it's impossible to remember and too much of a hassle to go back.

Yes, do tell if you get 2 out of the deal. ;)

dlp252 Apprentice

Ha, I ordered my train case. A present to myself. :) Also a tooth whitener.

Today I tried to use the Pearl Beige as an eyeshadow...it looked pretty good but was just a hair too light so I put Gingerbread man over it, and I really, really liked that, lol.

I also switched the brushes I use...Normally I use the flat top for my silk dust layer, then use the long handled kabuki for my foundation. I switched them today...still not sure what I think about that. I'll get back to you. :P

confused Community Regular

Guess what, Guess what lol

I got my makeup. I also now know why it took so long. I paid for usps priority and i got it from dhl. I was so mad tho cause it was 15 minutes after i did my makeup lol. I was out of sunlight so i had to use mint lol. I still have to look over everything.

I am happy again that i got it, even tho it took forever. Even tho I have to find room for the stuff i bought now lmao

paula

dlp252 Apprentice

Yay Paula!!!! So happy you finally got it! How'd the dreaded DHL get a hold of it, lol?! :lol:

You'll have fun playing!

I've decided when I'm off for my foot surgery, I'm going to play with stuff. Like this morning. I really love Gingerbread man, and thought it might look good as a bronzer or blush, but was too afraid to try it. I'll try it on a day when I don't have to go out, lol.

      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

      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
