OOOOhhhh, and then, since it turns color on me, I'd get to see a kalaidescope of changing color as the day goes on! :P Hum, I'll try it! Wait, hum, maybe it wouldn't turn color on my eyes though...still I think I must try.

:lol:

When I'm on the new website, I often click excitedly on a lovely creamy peachy shade of blush, only to see the words "new car smell" pop up. Then I go like this: <_< (they so lie about that color...seriously, why does it look so pretty online, yet so horrid in reality? :rolleyes: )

I'm actually a bit bummed, b/c I was hoping the colors would be depicted more accurately on the new site. I know it's not possible to get them perfect since computer screens vary, but really...they're pretty off :ph34r:

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

Yay on the traincase and spill on the tooth whitener, I'm interested :lol:

I'm also interested to hear how your brush expeiment goes.

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

YAY Paula!!! Can't wait to hear what you think of everything.

Perfect! Back to the neon 80s, you could wear florescent clothing and gloves and sing Wham songs to complete the look and feel...not that I did anything like that back then :ph34r:

I'm with you on this. Another frustration I had when ordering is there are several blushes without descriptions that I was interested in. I am finding I am paying attention to the written description and I really go over their wording carefully, along with the visual of the color swatch, to make my decisions.

But then again how many times have we all gotten a color and it was a total unexpected surprise, very different from what was shown and the description.

I guess we just have to try EVERYTHING!!!!!

Placed a new order today. Tried to do it on the new site, but it does not have the option of sending a check or money order as the old one does. I have always placed my order and then sent a check. Had to go to the original site to do that. Hmmm....If anyone is interested, I ordered Fairly Light Neutral Semi-Matte foundation, Email Me blush, Start to Finish Fair finishing powder, and Intensive Light Concealer. ;)

Hey Ya'll!!! :D

After having the time to read only the first 10 of the 164 pages about this incredible make-up, I'm totally sold on it, and I haven't even checked out the website yet! :lol: Good thing my birthday is in 9 days, because some of my b-day money will be going to EM. Right now I'm using Merle Norman's mineral foundation and for blush, etc. I'm using Clinique. I think I'll really like EM better. One question, I have dry skin, so can I apply foundation right after moisturizing?? :unsure: I know if I did that with any other mineral make-up my face would look all cakey. Not a good thing :(

After I get my make-up in I'll tell ya'll what I think about it.

Hey cmom, glad you were still able to order at the old site with a check :)

I'm very interested in hearing how you like Email Me and the Start To Finish, so when you try them out you'll have to post a review.

Welcome Auntie Lurlynn!! I think you will really love Everyday Minerals as much as we do :)

I think I had read a tip to let your mousturizer set for about 5 minutes before applying anything, but I often don't and it seems to work out ok for me, not cakey at all. You will just have to experiment.

FYI, the original glo formulation of the foundations seems to work well for me and my dry skin areas.

Hi, Auntie Lurlynn. I have very dry skin as well. I am a big loser cheater, but I actually mix my EM into my moisturizer and apply it that way. Then I let the moisturizer set for 5 or 10 minutes and buff it in. I get a nice even coat, and no snowy caky face. I use the original glo, the other formulations are just too drying for my face.

OK - today is Mistletoe. LOVE IT!!! It is a great emerald green with a sparkle. Looks great with my green eyes. I used Cliche as a base again today. I am going to run out of this stuff fast, and will have to buy a new one before long.

Colleen, that doesn't make you a loser cheater, it makes you brilliant!!!! :lol:

Dang, Mistletoe is one I had my eye on but passed on in the last minute in my recent order. I thought I didn't need yet anther green (I have cypress, emerald, and pressed olive is on it's way).

I'm going to add it to my list for my next order!

Yes, you MUST try EVERYTHING!

Tooth whitener...I've been wanting to do that for a while, but I've tried the drug store stuff and it just doesn't work, and the dentist's office is too expensive right now...but I was afraid to try some of the other stuff out there, not knowing if it would work or not. Then yesterday, I happened to click on something on a webpage I was on, and it happened to be reviews of some teeth whiteners. They only found two that worked reasonably well, and the second of the two was one that Sephora sells, so I decided to try it. The reviewer was disappointed because it only whitened by 5-6 shades, lol. The #1 on the list went 7 shades...but that was from a website I'd never heard about before. I decided to try the one at Sephora. I'd be happy with 5 shades, lol.

If anyone is interested, I ordered Fairly Light Neutral Semi-Matte foundation, Email Me blush, Start to Finish Fair finishing powder, and Intensive Light Concealer. ;)

Silly, silly girl...OF COURSE we're interested. More than just interested, it is the duty of all cult personnel to report all orders! :lol:

Hey Ya'll!!! :D

Hi there! Welcome! They do have free (just cost of shipping) sample kits you can get, and you can order larger sample sizes of the makeup products too, so you don't have to get big containers of stuff until you know you like them. I see colleen gave the suggestion of mixing the foundation with the moisturizer, which is what I was going to suggest too.

OK - today is Mistletoe. LOVE IT!!! It is a great emerald green with a sparkle. Looks great with my green eyes. I used Cliche as a base again today. I am going to run out of this stuff fast, and will have to buy a new one before long.

I really love Mistletoe!

Ok i tried some of the stuff out lol. Im really shiny tho. I put on pearl sunlight and got some shine under my eyes and nose lol. Then i put on the start to finish powder, I love this. Then i put on buttered tan. Then i tried the free blush and my cheeks went grey almost black, so took that off and went back to phot album. I used the silk dust to finish it off. I do like the start to finish powders. Tommorow i am going to try the presssed powder. I didnt have time to really experiment cause i was getting ready for an baseball game lol.

Im going to use it for an eyeliner i think for the rest of my life lmao.

Ok tried the prssed powder. Ummm i looked like i was going goth lol. I used the pressed olive. I really think they are going to have to make darker shades, because i do love the coverage they give, justnot the color. ALso they dotn mix well with the pearl sunlight at all, it was like seperating all over my eyes and nose lol.

I did like how the start to finish soft bronze looked for finishing powder.

Im wondering what it would do to mix the pad with the pressed powder and our favorite foundation. I looked so bad. My eyes are really red cause of my allergies and crying last night, that they really stuck out with the goth look lol.

Crap i forgot to try some of the lipsticks lol

Oh yeah...I'm wearing Copper today. I got my latest order yesterday, and copper was the lipstick I tried this time. It's a nice color...I thought it would be very orange, but it's not, and it's sort of sheer which is very nice. I mixed it with a pink today just because of what I'm wearing, but it'd be nice on its own too.

Thanks for the info Donna. I might have you try it first and see how you do with it, a guinea pig of sorts :lol: But it sounds really promising, I'd be happy with 5 shades...I'd be happy with even 2 :lol:

Paula sorry about your pressed powder experience :(

I wanted to order some of the lip glosses, but I see they all have sunflower oil in them and I'm allergic. So no EM lip glosses for me. BOO!!

      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
