You guys are awesome, thank you so much for your input! Hopefully the flat top brush will work better. I have not been exfoliating, so I will try that. And tomorrow I will attempt to apply my foundation wet! Now I want to go try to find a stiffer brush to hold me over until my order arrives....darn ice, I can't go anywhere! :P I'm going to place my order now...I didn't want to until I got some opinions! LOL B)

I guess I'll have to order New Car Smell next, since everyone loves it. It seems like all their colors look good on pretty much everyone!

I forgot...I also got the angled brow brush. Anyone have any tips for using it? Thanks!

Well, up to now I've been using it for purposes other than as a brow brush. I tried putting eye liner on with it. I have mixed feelings about how well THAT worked, lol. I've used similar brushes to do that before, also with mixed feelings, lol.

I've used it to sort of "smudge" my eyeliner lines a little bit more...works pretty well for that.

I tried using it to apply eye shadow, but didn't particularly care for that use. But today...today I used it as a brow brush and it worked quite well. I used a little bit (emphasizing LITTLE bit, lol) of medium brown brow color and just sort of lightly brushed it on with the angled brush. Looked very nice and the brush worked well.

So the brow brush works as a........... brow brush ????? LOL

Good info. though. :D I think I'm going to try it as an eyeliner smudger soon.

I've used it for all three purposes. I like it for an eyeliner, and I use it for dark eyeshadow in th crease of my eyelid. You have to start at the corner of your eye and pull towards your nose so you get the darkest bit in the corner. Then I kind of smudge it up and maybe dust finishing powder over my eyes if it's a little too dark.

I've never done anything with my brows. I keep them very thin, but I wonder what they'd look like with a little help? ;) I may have to try that now, too!

OK, so I switched "Best Friends" for "All Smiles" in my kit after seeing that pretty blush on the homepage. I added another sample kit too, with Fair, Fair Medium and Multi-Tasking Neutral in original glow, Jump Rope blush, and Pick Me Up Pink concealer. YAY!!! I can't wait to get this next package!!!

Are they talking about adding mascara? I'm a little wary about wearing my Maybelline and my liquid liner.

You guys seem to have so much fun mixing these gorgeous colors, I can't wait to have more! I just wish they had some really *bright* stuff, I sometimes do my eyes in wild colors.....though maybe I'm just not seeing that they have the same colors, it's so hard when you're not seeing it in person!

I feel the same way, I am not much of a natural look girl, I like the bright blues and pinks, purples and greens...but i did get a blue, and a pink, and they look pretty hott together.

Well, I have to admit that most of the colors I've tried from EM are pretty mild. I LOVE sparkly shiney things, and I LOVE some of the foil looks in eyeshadows, but I don't wear them, lol. A couple of weekends ago I DID buy some purple glitter eyeliner and I WILL wear that the next time I go somewhere other than work. :P

EM eyeshadows are actually pretty light and subtle. That's what I like about them though. Most eyeshadows make me look like some sort of scary death monster, but the EM shades actually work on me :D

I like to go bright because it makes the blue in my eyes POP. but the subtle look isnt bad either...just makes the blue in my eyes look darker.

Installment 2 of my experiment:

So today I put the finishing powder on all over my face, including both eyes. After almost 10 hours, everything still looks good...no creasing in my eye area, blush is still noticable :lol: and even my lip gloss still seems to look good (never reapplied it today). So I'm pleased with this little experiment, lol.

Wow--sounds like it really made a difference. I'll bet it'll be great in the summer :)

Whoever suggested using the new car smell as an eyeshadow - fabulous!! Works perfect for casual friday. I also brushed a bit into my eyebrows to complete the 'autumn' color scheme.

Glad you like it!

So you all would not believe (okay maybe you would by now) how many colors I had to use to achieve my no make-up casual Friday look today :rolleyes::lol:

Hey it's only three blushes and two eye shadows :rolleyes::rolleyes:

:lol:

Lip gloss

Okay, maybe NOT, lol.

I think the "Lip Gloss" qualifies you for this look :lol:

Oh, and I took notes on your brow color experience and your Natural Reflections experiment.

Oh, for the ladies who like the bright dark colors for the eyes the colors that are highly pigmented might work.

Mystic Night and Morocco are two that come to mind

elye Community Regular
omg!

I just saw Gaylord over in MakeUpTown, hiding among the crowds. Is he afraid to show his face?

All, right, all right. Calm yourselves, my children. I am here to share in the beautious experience that is cosmetics. Shall we pray together?

:rolleyes::rolleyes::o:lol::lol:

Has anyone used their skin care stuff? Like the soap bars for washing your face? I want to try it because it's gluten-free (right?) but my esthetician said not to use bars because they harbor bacteria. Anyone have ideas?

What kind of sage advice do you have for us, Gaylord?

No, but I'm tempted. I use Kiss My Face olive oil bar soap for my face and it's the best thing. I'm mainly avoiding the EM bar soaps b/c they contain soy, but otherwise I would definitely order them.

      In response to your questions regarding probiotics.  I have had Celiac for 40 years.  Stomach issues: digestion, IBS to chronic constipation, bloat after eating anything.  I was unable to eat a healthy variety of foods, tried probiotics supplements - some made me worse, others made no difference.  After reading about people with Crones, IBS, etc, who made their own probiotics I started making Milk Kefir: not water Kefir. There are 10 probiotics in milk KEFIR. After 3 weeks I was able to eat more, no gas, no IBS.  If you have a computer just ask for videos on making milk Kefir. I branched out and make my own Kombucha for even more probiotics. I do not make my yogurt because there are only about four probiotics in that. I started this when I was 82 and I still make my own Kefir and Kombucha. My stomach issues were fixed with the Milk Kefir alone. If you decide to try making it, make certain you order MILK GRAINS. The finished product tastes a bit like Buttermilk. I hope this helps in your journey to good health.

      Help me out here. Lauren Dam gluten-free beer from Spain is listed as gluten free. Yet its made from Barley Malt. I thought barley and any form had gluten. Anybody have any more information about it?

      Ferritin levels.  And see what your hemoglobin looks like too, that will tell you if you are anemic?  You can have 'low normal' levels that will not be flagged by blood tests.  I had 'low normal' levels, my lab reading was. c12, just over what was considered normal, but I had small benign lesion on my tongue, and sometimes a sore mouth, and a consultant maxillofacial ordered an iron infusion for me as he felt my levels were too low and if he  raised them to 40, it would help.   Because you are not feeling 100% it might be worth looking at your levels, then discussing with your doctor if they are low normal.  But I stress, don't supplement iron without your levels being monitored, too much is dangerous.

      Hi Katht -  I sympathize with your struggles in following a gluten-free diet and lifestyle. I found out that I had Celiac Disease a few months before I turned 70. I just turned 89 and it has taken me almost 20 years to attain a fairly normal intestinal  function. I also lost a lot of weight, down to 100 lb. down from about 140 lb. What Trents wrote you was very true for me. I am still elimination foods from my diet. One person suggested you keep a food diary and that is a good idea but it is probably best just to do an elimination diet. There are several ne and maybe one for celiacs. I used one for a while and started with plain rice and zucchini and then added back other foods to see if I reacted or not. That helped a great deal but what I did not realise that it would only very small amounts of some foods to cause inflammation in my intestine. Within the last few years I have stopped eating any trace amounts of hot peppers, corn and soy(mostly in supplements) and nuts, (the corn in Tylenol was giving me stomach aches and the nuts were causing foot pains). Starting an elimination diet with white rice is better than brown rice that has some natural toxins. In addition it is very important to drink sufficient plain water. You can find out how much to drink for your height and weight online. I do have difficulty drinking 48 ounces of water but just recently have found an electrolyte supplement that helps me stay well hydrated, Adding the water and electrolytes may reduce muscle cramps and gag spams you wrote about. . Also buy some anti-gluten enzyme capsules to take with meals. I use GliadinX advertised here. These are a lot of things to do at one time as they reflect my 20 years of experience. I hope you do what you can manage to do over time. Good luck and take care.
