Yeah, I keep checking every day to see if there is a new website, lol.

Is there a new color, or did I miss something??

Thanks for posting the news...I hadn't seen that one yet.

No new color...she's referring to my avatar caption, lol.

The B12 spray sounds great...I'm going to ask my doctor about them...I'm giving myself B12 shots (or supposed to be, lol), but I'm having a HARD time giving them to myself and it's such a hassle to go in to get the shots. I was doing sublingual B12, but my doctor thought that wasn't good enough so I'm on the shots.

This does sound much better than shots. It is hard to do them regularly to yourself. Hope it works for you.

:lol: That is shocking......and aweing (? :huh: ).... very hard to believe the bright orange would look "nice".

It goes back to not judging a color by the way it looks in the jar, you never know what it's going to look like on. I guess I should be brave and finally try out B & B, but I think with that the high pigmentation is more of an issue than its color.

Did you guys check out the news, looks like it was posted just today:

That is encouraging about the new color. You are right Julie, we can't always judge by how it looks in the jar. I have a few I haven't tried yet, because I didn't like the looks of it. I guess I ought to give them a shot.

Did you notice the statement about the new jars?

I wondered why they weren't using the sifter tops that close. The laura Marcier jars all have sifters that close. Now I may have to wait to order my full sizes when they come out with the new jars.

Does anyone us the natural blush?

dlp252 Apprentice

I haven't tried natural yet...I've been wondering about it, but the color swatch on the website is kind of grey, lol. I'm hoping the new website will have better swatches.

I like natural. It's more of a complexion enhancer than an actual color. I think it would be too light for you guys though. (It's basically just a very subtle shimmer).

Donna...what's wrong with you!? :lol: You mean, you don't LIKE inflicting pain upon yourself! LOL! I understand, I don't like doing the shots either...but I do get an "A" for effort from my Dr. :rolleyes::P He was shocked I'm still doing them! LOL!

About natural, yea, it does look really gray. I don't like sparkly things all over my face. I like sparkles in eye shadow, but not all over my face. I guess I'm weird like that. B)

I really need to organize my train case, donna are you free this weekend lol. I have many colors that i have not even opened yet. Colors that i have opened but never used. I dont even have all the eye shadows together, blushes together and it is driving me nuts.

Hubby said he is willing to buy me a train case that has the wheels lmao

I am glad I am not the only one. I ordered the natural blush, because so many people were raving about it on the EM board. I was really disappointed with it. It sure won't work as a blush for me.

I agree about sparkles on the face - not for me.

How about waffle cone? I think some on here have liked it. I have not ordered that yet.

Paula, I wonder if they have one with wheels and a motor?

My husband looked at me and my collection the other day and asked "how is it possible you have so many little containers of stuff, and how is it possible you actually use a little bit out of each one of those?" I told him it was even more unbelievable that I actually need more. LOL

I am beginning to look like a mad chemist.

Horrors of Horrors...I had to leave the house without eye makeup today! :o It's true. Something happened to one of my eyes during the night I guess...woke up feeling like some big gob of something was in there, but there isn't anything there. It's still red and watery and still feels like something is there. I figured since it would all just wash off anyway there wasn't any sense in wasting my precious Ginger Peach, lol.

You know, it isn't really even so much the pain, although that is certainly not a favorite thing of mine, lol, but it's more that I think I'm going to kill myself with it. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yeah, I like waffle cone...I probably don't love it as much as some do, and definitely doesn't replace my favorites of Pink Ribbon and Nick Nack, but I do like it.

Paula, I wonder if they have one with wheels and a motor?

:lol: !!! Yeah, motorized wheeled train case. :lol: Heck, I've been thinking I should have got the Sephora one after all...I thought it was so HUGE when I looked at it again, but sheesh, these full sized containers are huge and I had to do major reorganization to get half of them to fit in. Wouldn't be so bad if I could decide on only ONE or TWO foundation colors, but I've got full sized containers of 3 so far and I'm going to order another one on my next order. :rolleyes:

I see a new EM order in my future. :)

I was short on time this morning, and had to make a decision on which I was going to do - fix my hair or put on EM. Guess which one I chose? I'll give you two hints - smokey pink eye shadow and a pony tail. :)

Yeah, it's been all day and it still feels like something is in there...my eye is actually really glassy, and almost feels like there is a film over it...NOT very attractive with ANY of my shades of eye shadow. :lol:

i used the walkie talkie today as a blush and shadow. It is very very pretty. I think i will have to get an big size of it when they make it a full size lol.

Hello everyone! I definitely wasn't expecting to find mineral makeup on a gluten-free site! I've been using minerals for several years now. I have some EM, but never got hooked on them.

If you want to explore more minerals or have fun in a different mineral forum, check out Open Original Shared Link

There are about a zillion mineral makeup brands out there. WAY too many temptations!

Welcome to our mineral thread. I would have checked it out, but it requires registration first, so I will pass, but thank you anyway.

I got my order last evening. I did get the special with it this time, thank goodness.

I got a personal custom kit. Those full size containers are really large lol. I was also surprised that the blushes and concealers came in the same large size as the foundation. I don't know why, but I was expecting those to be somewhat smaller. I now have enough concealer to last me a few years lol.

I also got the long handled kabuki, an extra baby kabuki and an extra flat top. The baby kabuki looks just like my original baby kabuki but is just slightly smaller in brush length. The flat top was just the same as my older one. I may order another set of the nice brushes just in case they decide to change them. I ordered this set for travel.

I ordered the pink ribbon. That looks very pretty. It looked so light on the website, that I had never ordered it before.

I haven't tried the new blush colors yet. I will be playing with them today.

confusedks Enthusiast

So you know how we were all getting different brushes? Well, I emailed EM customer services and explained the situation, and they asked for my invoice number from the order with the crummy brush.

Apparently I ordered the old kabuki (the crummy one!!) and their new brushes are the nice ones.

So, has anyone recently ordered a brush from them that is yucky? Or did they really change their brushes?

The good news is they offered to send me a free kabuki! At least they have great customer service. :)

The new ones are so much softer and nicer. I hated the first one i ever got. I even threw it away this week after i got 2 new ones lol. I only used the old one once. I would let them send you a new one. That reminds me i need to email them and see what they are going to do about the refund they owe me, Im going to ask just for a sample kit for free lol

The buttered tan doesn't work for me. Fair is the closest to my neck color, but my face is so red it just looks too weird to change it that much. I think multi-tasking is going to be the best choice, although most of the others can be used if done lightly. Now I just have to figure out the formula I like best. The mattes are pretty drying, and my skin is dry enough already.

That's a lot of foundation Jess :lol:

I like Original Glo for dry skin (not that I have dry skin, I have more combination skin), but the other formulations dried me out.

Donna!! I missed this about your eye. I am so sorry :( Hope it's better, but since you haven't been around I am worried that might not be the case....

Thanks Kassandra for the latest on the brushes, i need to email them because I definitely got a crummy brush with my eye color kit.

Update: They are sending me a free brush...baby kabuki. They do have great customer service...I will give them that!

Morning everyone! I took a break from computers this weekend...didn't even turn my computer at home on once the entire weekend.

Hello everyone! I definitely wasn't expecting to find mineral makeup on a gluten-free site! I've been using minerals for several years now. I have some EM, but never got hooked on them.

Hello and welcome! Yeah, many of us have tried other brands...I started breaking out with BE, so was happy to find EM, which doesn't seem to.

I hope your eye is better today.

..

So, has anyone recently ordered a brush from them that is yucky? Or did they really change their brushes?

Yes, it's better...so far no stye, but it still feels irritated a little.

None of the recent brushes I've received have been bad or yucky...they're all good. :)

I now have 14 foundations! :o

I fear a spreadsheet is in my future...

:o:lol: :lol: I think you MAY have more than me...must check my spreadsheet....okay, no, I have 19 if you don't count the different formulations of the same color, lol...27 if you do. BUT, I only have 3 in full sized containers...about to get the 4th though. :rolleyes::ph34r:

Donna!! I missed this about your eye. I am so sorry :( Hope it's better, but since you haven't been around I am worried that might not be the case....

Eye is better, but was still bad on Saturday. AND, my stupid neck and shoulders were excrutiatingly painful so I decided to NOT get on the computer at home (where my setup is not ergonomically correct, lol). When I was sick, I coughed so hard that I strained a muscle in my chest and head, and apparently threw something out in my left shoulder blade area. If it's not one thing it's another. :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.
