Well everyone...for those of you who don't have any of the full sized containers yet let me just say that they are HUGE!!!

They look like they will last forever!

I am really hoping they do not introduce a bunch of new eyeshadow colors after 3/15. I do not need any more colors. Or do I????

Off the subject - Does anybody use Noxzema?

YES, we need more eye colors!!!!!! YOU need more eye colors, WE ALL need more eye colors!!! :lol:

Oh, and I think that anything pertaining to the face, or prep of said face for our EM makeup, falls within topic and cult guidelines :lol:

That being said, I don't know about the gluten-free status of Noxema. Hope finding out isn't too much of a PITA.

Now who has a nice dusty rose color? I would rather use that as lip color for a natural everyday lipstick??

Thank You might fit the bill, it's a deep rosey color.

I ........ :o TORE off all the labels and stuck them to the lids :o I'm just a rebel! But I can now see the colors without having to take off the lid!

This cracked me up Stacie! Excellent idea btw.

Well if they ever change the special i will be ordering all of the eyeshadows that i have left to buy lol, well all but the blue ones cause i refuse blue lol. Well that is if they dont add more eye colors to the site lol.

Ok... Sunkissed Fair semi-matte review:

It matches my skin rather well, except it turned out very pink (I'm going to wash out my flat-topped brush and try again) and didn't match my neck at all. Semi-matte stays on my skin far better than the intensive, but it's not quite matte enough.

On my eyes I used Snowflakes on the lash line and Sunlight Concealer on the lid (I randomly grabbed them :P). Turned out to be a rather nice combination. :)

Paula, I usually put on 3-4 layers of foundation, and use more powder than recommended for each one. :P I just can't get the coverage I need any other way.

Tried Ivory in the matte forumation today. Probably not a keeper, but it doesn't look bad. This will probably be one I put into the gianormous foundation mix of under used colors. :)

Text Message...not bad. Put on with a very light touch and it looks fine, but I have so many other colors I love, so probably will not buy a full size of this one.

My fun goal for today is to set up my at work kit. Lucky for me I have a plethora of totes that I've outgrown to use. :P

Paula, I only use about 2 layers, but I don't think there is a right or wrong number of layers :D

Birdy, here's a thought. Have you tried doing a layer of semi-matte for the staying power and then topping that with a matte layer for your desired matte finish?

:lol::lol: Donna, glad you are having such a fabulous day!

I'm sure you have noticed the swapping/trade threads on the EM boards for colors that just don't work for you??

dlp252 Apprentice

Forgot to address the layers question! :rolleyes: I think I put on one main layer plus some sweeps. What I do is tap out some minerals, swirl my brush, start buffing it on one section of my face, then lightly buff over the rest of my face. I repeat the process but start on a different part of my face. I repeat one more time on yet another part of my face...so it usually goes right cheek area sweeping down to my neck and all over my face, then left cheek area sweeping down my neck and all over my face, then forehead area sweeping down to temples and nose and all over my face. Clear as mud?! :lol:

I'm sure you have noticed the swapping/trade threads on the EM boards for colors that just don't work for you??

Yes, but I have a quirky little thing about using things that strangers have used, lol. The quirkiness even sometimes extends to long-time friends, depending on which long-time friend it is. :P Also have that same sort of quirkiness about library books. :P:ph34r:

okay SO I really didn't want to do what I needed to do while the baby napped and instead I played with my makeup.

I ........ :o TORE off all the labels and stuck them to the lids :o I'm just a rebel! But I can now see the colors without having to take off the lid!

LOL Stacie! I love your idea. I think you should write it as a suggestion to EM. It would be so much nicer if they would put the labels on the top of the lid. I'm going to brave this one too. Was it hard to do? Are the labels still sticky and stay on the top?

How many coats of foundation/concelor does everyone use.

Hey Paula - I use 2 - 3 layers of foundation. I seem to use more if I use the Original Glo forumla becuase I can get away with more thinner layers. The semi-matte, matte, and intensive tend to get too thick for me after the 2nd coat.

ONly hard to get a piece up and then it pulled right off and then stuck like glue to the lids. THe writing is a little hard to read but since I only need that for reordering, I figure I can pull it back off then. So far they are sticking and don't seem to be coming up. I smoothed them out and pressed them really hard all the way around.

Anyone checked out the EM site today? The old special is gone and it says to check back soon for a new one. Will there be a new site and/or special this weekend? Stay tuned to find out. I'm sure you'll see it here first. :lol:

If you had told me 3 months ago that I would be wearing blue eyeshadow today, I would have had you lie down and check your meds. But today i am wearing baby sitter over floating feathers with smokey as a liner. It's a really nice blue - definitely not a "Marge gets dresed up to go to Bingo" blue.

My resolve is weakening. If they introduce more eyeshadow colors, I will be really tempted......

:D:D OMGosh! That is too funny, and exactly how I feel about blue and purple. I wore snowflakes yesterday!

I have one friend IRL that has ordered her first mini kit and another that is going to check out the website. :lol:

dlp252 Apprentice

I'm still scared of the blues, lol. I did try one of them, but haven't tried the other yet. :P

The other one I was afraid of trying was Anytime blush as an eyeshadow. It was too pale and chocky as a blush for me, but I thought it was too pretty to get rid of, so been meaning for weeks now to try it as an eyecolor...

Today was the day! :P Looks very nice as an allover base color on the eyes. It still got a bit chocky, but that's because I kept putting more on. :lol: If I'd stopped after two layers it would have been perfect. Evenso, when I put on Snowflakes in the crease and at the corners it all looked great. Finished that off with a little Mystic Nights as a liner. I got my purple on today! :lol:

The other experiment today was my own mix of foundation. I've got several colors that are too dark and several that are too light, so decided to pair them up and see what happens. Today's mix: Golden Fawn Matte with Olive Golden Medium Intensive. Did a 50/50 mix (used a measuring spoon so I could recreate if necessary, lol).

Looks very nice...very good match for my facial skin, but not sure it's an exact match for my neck...must check that out later in good natural light. Didn't use any concealors or finishing/silk powder/dust, so I could get an accurate opinion on the color match. Next test will be to use it with concealor, and then with finishing dust.

I'm also considering actually mixing in a little concealor into the foundation mix...considering. :P

This weekend I MUST go get more empty jars, lol.

Still no update on the specials or new website...anxiously awaiting both. :P

Hi Everyone!

Under the news section of the EM site--she mentions they are changing up the lip glosses, and still working on the website (due to adding 12 new features!) :D She also mentions still working on the eye kabuki brush!!

Can't wait!!

Donna:

i read somewhere that the ivory shade is also great for an eyeshadow primer. Give it a try that way. It is in my "ready to go" order for the next special. Let me know if it works well.

AMY

dlp252 Apprentice

Thanks Amy...I'll try Ivory as an eye primer before it goes into a foundation mix, lol! :)

I haven't worn make-up in a week :ph34r:, but today I made up for it with a really great eye shadow combo :lol:

Pots and Pans all over

Snowflakes on outer half of lid

Bedtime Story on inner half of lid

In the Garden as liner

Daydream blush

Yikes! Today I got a giant hive on my eyelid shortly after applying my makeup. Now to figure out what caused that. I immediately washed everything off and it is settling down, but my eyelid blew up like a baloon. It started right at the lashline. Both eyes itched, but only one got the hive.

I used my regular samba lessons eyeliner, so I sure hope it wasn't that as it is my very favorite. :(

I guess it will be careful trial and error to figure out the offending agent. I sure am glad I wasn't working today.

I love the ginger peach eyeshadow. I would not have ordered that if some of you here hadn't raved about it, so thank you for that suggestion.

I thought I had my foundation all figured out, but not so. I think I am going to have to mix. I never could achieve the nice look I had the day I tried the fawn intensive, but I finally decided I must have put it over something I already had on. Unfortunately, I had no idea what that was. I went back and looked at my orders and I think it may have been ivory original glow since I got it that same week. So today I did about a 50/50 mix of ivory and fawn and it looked pretty good.

Along with the foundation dilemma, I just cannot seem to find a great blush. It may just be that I can't get the application down correctly, or I may need a much lighter brush. It is always too light or too dark, or just plain blotchy, never just right.

Your eyemakeup sounds great, Mango.

Oooh Amy, a kabuki eye brush sounds really nice.

Cruelshoes, Dlp and Cheri, I don't ever wear blue either, but somehow that mystic blue seems to be calling my name for an eyeliner, it is just so pretty. I may have to throw it into my next mini eyeshadow kit.

dlp252 Apprentice

Oh yeah, Mystic Blue is one of my favorites...that's not blue to me, lol. It's dark enough that it doesn't scream BLUE eyeshadow. :lol:

When you test out your products for hive reaction, can you do one at a time like maybe on the inside of your arm?

WW340 Rookie

confused Community Regular

I now will have all the eyeshadow colors that i want, im so excited. I hope i have room in my case, oh crap i forgot to order an pink pajamas eye shadow since mine is lost. Oh ya and i got a full size sunlight concelor, i love that stuff lol

paula

Healthy Girl Explorer

WW340:

Have you cleaned your brushes lately? Or have you used anything with a purple base in a shadow the past few days? Purple shaded eye colors sometimes can irritate sensite eye lids.

Lets hope its the new moisturizer though!!

Not crazy about the new special--i think I may hold off with my order for the next special.

Good luck

AMY

dlp252 Apprentice

Ha, well I sort of want the new special, but I can't think of enough to buy right now in order to get it, lol. Who knew I would run out of things to buy?! I know, shockes, amazes and astonishes even me. :lol:

ETA: Almost forgot my brilliant idea I had in the middle of the night last night. Not only am I going to mix foundations colors...but I think I'm going to do the same with eye colors. There are several that I probably won't wear much if at all and I'm thinking I can mix them with something else. I think my first combo might be one of the light blue eyeshadows with mojave camping blush. :lol: Now, all I need to do it get me some more small containers. Must do that this weekend.

Most people lay awake at night worrying. You lay awake thinking about makeup :lol: :lol:

Today I tried using a slightly off color of foundation as an eyelid base. Maybe try that if you have eye colors that are just a bit off. Make a grid of foundation stripes one way and eyeshadow stripes the other on your lid to see if the color changes. :rolleyes:

then post a picture of your eyes

dlp252 Apprentice

:lol: !!!!

Well, I was slightly worried...what if I look like I have a black eye! Course applying said mix in the manner you just described would solve THAT problem. A new trend might be started. Hum....

I have a new roommate who doesn't seem to be the biggest fan of my make-up obsession. <_< She caught me doing my eyes to go to the grocery store today and kind of looked at me like this ----> :blink: Then she rolled her eyes -----> :rolleyes: LOL

Oh she has noooooo idea what I'll put make-up on for....the gym, the grocery store, staying home :ph34r: hahaha this is going to be interesting....

On another note, someone has to tell me what that new lipgloss is like. It sounds really pretty (I like shiny pinks :D )

dlp252 Apprentice

Well, it won't be ME that tells you want the new lip gloss is like. I can't think of enough things to buy to get the stupid special! Harrumphf! :lol:

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products

      Geography makes a difference.  I'm in the West and Trader Joe's gluten-free bread tastes great and is a better price than most gluten-free breads sold elsewhere in my area.

      We have four children (7-14 yo), and our 7 year old was diagnosed with NCGS (though all Celiac labs were positive, her scope at 4 years old was negative so docs in the US won't call it celiac). We have started her on a Gluten Free diet after 3 years of major digestive issues and ruling out just about everything under the sun. Our home and kitchen and myself are all gluten-free. But I have not asked my husband/her dad or her other siblings to go completely gluten-free with us. They are at home, but not out of the home. This has led to situations when we are eating out where she has to consistently see others eating things she can't have and she has begun to say "Well, I can't have <fill in the blank>...stupid gluten."  How have you supported your gluten-free kiddos in the mental health space of this journey, especially young ones like her. I know it's hard for me as an adult sometimes to miss out, so I can't imagine being 7 and dealing with it! Any tips or ideas to help with this?

      By the time I was 5 I had my first auto0immune disorder, Migraine headaches, with auras to blind me, and vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound. I was 5 years old, and my stepfather would have pizza night, milling his own flour, making thick cheesy gluten pizza, that I would eat and the next day, I would have serious migraines, and my mother & stepfather did nothing about my medical problems. When I was 17 in my first year at college, I was diagnosed with my 2nd known auto-immune disorder, Meniere's disease. I was a elite athlete, a swimmer, and soccer player. And once again my parents didn't think anything of understanding why I had a disorder only older people get. Now after my mother passed from Alzheimer's disease she also suffered with living with gluten. She had a rash for 30 years that nobody could diagnose. She was itchy for 45 years total. My brother had a encapsulated virus explodes in his spleen and when this happened his entire intestines were covered with adhesions, scar tissue and he almost lost his life. He has 5 daughters, and when I finally was diagnosed after being pregnant and my body went into a cytokine storm, I lost my chance to have children, I ended up having Hashimoto's disease, Degenerative Disc disease, and my body started to shut down during my first trimester. I am 6ft tall and got down to 119lbs. My husband and I went to a special immunologist in Terrace, California. They took 17 vials of blood as we flew there for a day and returned home that evening. In 3 weeks, we had the answer, I have Celiac disease. Once this was known, only my father and husband made efforts to change their way of feeding me. At the family cabin, my stepfather & mother were more worried that I would ruin Thanksgiving Dinner. It wasn't until one of my cousins was diagnosed with Celiac disease. They finally looked into getting Gluten Free flour and taking measures to limit "gluten" in meals. He did nothing but ask for me to pay for my own food and wi-fi when I came to the cabin to stay after our house burned down. When he informed my mother, they proceeding to get into a physical fight and she ended up with a black eye. The is just more trauma for me. Sam had no interest in telling the truth about what he wanted. He lied to my mother that he had asked my husband if I could pay for "food" when he asked Geoffrey if I had money to pay for my wi-fi. My mother hates when he spends so much time on the computer so he lied and said I could pay for my own food. I will remind you I weighed 119lbs at this time. (At 6ft) that is a very sick looking person. Neither parent was worried about my weight, they just fought about how cheap my stepfather was. As my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2014. He had her sign over the will to a trust and added his children. He had no testimonial capacity at the time, so she signed without proper papers. Making this Trust null and void. When I gave my brother my childhood home, my mother stated I would be getting an equal part of inheritance to the house on Race. It currently worth 2.0 million $. I got nothing, and my stepfather has since disowned me b/c of my claim and he knows that my mother would never have left it uneven between my biological brother and myself. She sat me and my husband down, as we lived at the Race Street house and treated and took care of it as our own. My brother took over b/c he was going through a horrific divorce and needed a home so he could get a better custody deal with his soon to be ex-wife who was a Assist DA for Denver. She used the girls against him, and he & I were the primary caregivers. We, Judd and I spent the most time with them pre the divorce. Once Judd moved into the house, he threw all of my mother, grandmother and my family heirlooms out to the Goodwill. Nobody told my mother about this as she was going through cancer treatment and had Alzheimer's disease in her mother and her sister. My stepfather and biological brother took advantage of this matter, as I called a "family council" that my brother just never could make it to at the last moment. All of the furnishing, kitchen ware, everything was in the house my brother just moved into. He had had 2 weddings, I chose to elope b/c my stepfather ruined my brother's first wedding by talking about his relationship with my brother in front of my dad and his entire family, insulting him and having my grandfather leave the ceremony. It was a disaster. My stepfather just plays dumb and blames my father for the slight. I was the only child not to have a wedding. So, my mother and stepfather never had to pay for a thing. My mother had had an agreement with my father he'd pay for college and all medical issues with their kids, myself and Judd. So truly my mother never had to pay for anything big for me in her entire life. I am looking for anyone that has had a similar story, where they grew up in a household that had a baker that regularly milled flour and ate gluten. What happened to you? DId you suffer from different auto-immune diseases b/c of living with a baker using "gluten" Please let me know. I have been looking into legal ways to get my stepfather to give me what my mother had promised, and he erased. Thank you for listening to my story. Jane Donnelly

      Possibly gluten withdrawal. Lot's of info on the internet about it. Somewhat controversial but apparently gluten plugs into the same neuro sensors as opiates do and some people get a similar type withdrawal as they do when quitting opiates. Another issue is that gluten-free facsimile flours are not fortified with vitamins and minerals as is wheat flour (in the U.S. at least) so when the switch is made to gluten-free facsimile foods, especially if a lot of processed gluten-free foods are being used as substitutes, vitamin and mineral deficiencies can result. There is also the possibility that she has picked up a virus or some but that is totally unrelated to going gluten-free.
