    Thanks for all the birthday wishes for my son. I told him my online makeup friends wished him a happy birthday and he made me point out where in the posts it said that. He really liked it! No, don't back down! The more we post about this stuff the more we all benefit. And Donna, your posts just crack me up! That sounds perfect,...

    I had 2 new foam applicators and tried them, but I don't like the way the mineral makeup goes on with them. It seems to stick more to the foam then go on my face. Maybe some kind of brush would work better? I think the angled brow brush is the one that they shipped with the eye shadow kit. Under the description it says: "Adds color to the brow...

    Oh my! Leave my house for a couple hours and I'm waaaaay behind in this thread, lol! That's because I'm trying ever so patiently to wait until the next one comes up since my cart is full of a 10 mini eye shadow kit, a mini personal kit and the freebie kit. I really don't know if I can hold out until the 10th! Yay, so glad you finally...

    DDR is Dance Dance Revolution. It's a game where you have a dance mat with different areas to step on and you have to step on the arrows on the mat at the same time as the arrows come up on your t.v. screen. It's really fun and a real workout because I am more out of breath doing that than I am when I jog, lol! Yoga is something I'm going to start doing...

    Happy New Year to everyone! Hope everyone is ready to start their new years resolutions, I know I sure need to get back into it. Donna, glad to hear your doing better gluten free. It is a hard diet but so worth it if you feel good. I exercised for an hour yesterday doing DDR with my kids. I love that game! Today I did 40 minutes DDR and 1/2 hour...

    Oh Donna, I hope you can get it figured out without having to take a trip today. Good luck to you! I can't take it any more. I have 3 items in my cart all setup and ready. I found this site girlynation.com that gives you the best color matches based on your skin. It's not the best, but did help me get some more ideas. I was waiting to see what...

    Happy New Year Everyone! I love some of your goals and am highly impressed at Cam's mom successful weight loss last year. And planning to be in a trathalon - you go girl! Janet, I love your resolution about the canvas bags. That's something we all really should be doing now for the future of our children. Great idea! blueeyedamanda - I wish you the...

    Thank you! I have to tell you I tried buckwheat pancakes using your 1/2 and 1/2 method, except I used brown rice and buckwheat flour. They looked funny, kind of grey-brown from the buckwheat flour but the taste was wonderful. I loved the taste and texture the 'darker' flours gave to the recipe. I cut out plain white bread long ago really like my recipes to...

    HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all!!! I hope you all have a safe, happy, healthy and great new look new year. Best wishes to you all. Yes, Laura I even put eye shadow on today to run to the grocery store, hehe! LOL Julie, The EM bunch. Donna, I can picture you running out to the truck when it arrives at your house, lol! Oh my gosh, Colleen do...

    Yes, I can't wait until they have mascara. I took the picture in natural light, but they didn't say I needed to...just that it would be helpful if I could send a picture. I also thought I found the perfect match, but they picked 3 shades I have not yet tried and I already got 2 sample kits so that's 6 foundations. In my next order I will also order...
  11. Joni63
    News, News, News Flash... EM is working on MASCARA. Yes, when I sent my picture I asked if they would consider making a mascara. They are working on it ladies, this is so exciting!!! They were very helpful for foundation shades, but didn't recommend my blush and eye colors so I emailed them back to ask for those too. Hope I'm not asking too much, lol...
  12. Joni63
    Your welcome! It does work well, but is a bit expensive for the little you get. I'm only planning on using it on my face so I hope it will last a long time. LOL Mango. Yes, this thread is moving fast! Nick Nack is also one of my favorites. Cool breeze is an eye shadow that also morphs nicely as a very light plum color lip color when mixed...

    Thank you Donna, I am really excited about the picture too. : Julie, thank you for the Eco Bella link. I might have to order it online. There is a Whole Foods about an hour from me that I've been wanting to check out, but I never seem to make it there. Glad you got your order. It must be much easier to choose colors since you had your colors...

    I think your right about the makeup box. I love your idea about dumping the makeup into a margerine lid then using your brushes. I've been trying to squeeze my brushes into those small containers, swirling then tapping, but half the makeup ends up on the sink after I tap it. LOL! Yes, the holidays can be rough with all those goodies! ...
  15. Joni63
    Congrats on the makup box. It sounds really nice. Plenty of space for your everyday items. Mine are still sitting in the shipping box, lol! What do you think would work as an "on the go" bag though. I can't figure out what to use since the containers seem to leak out some of the powders. Ideas??? LOL! I have been on that website so much, it's really...
  16. Joni63
    Thank you! Just the information I needed about substitutions. I didn't know which recipes were more forgiving. I always have whole flax seed available and use a coffee grinder to grind it. I'll try adding it in next time I bake something. Great tip! Just curious, is there a reason your grinding it yourself? To get a better texture, perhaps? Do you...

    It is lots of fun! I think you will like the brushes. They work really well. Let me know how you like Swimming Pool, Cypress, Jump Rope and the Everyday Bronzer. I think our skin tone and hair/eye colors are similar so maybe we can compare? I have blue/green eyes, dark blonde hair and medium beige skin. The Chit Chat is a great blush for me and Cool Breeze...

    Thank you! I'm new to this and didn't even know where to begin looking. So far we are only putting music on that we already own, but that is making them real happy. It's a non Apple player. I had no idea Amazon and Walmart had music to download. I've heard of iTunes and there is one I found called eMusic that is 25 cents per download. Ever hear of...

    Oooh, Patti I really like that organizer. It looks like it can hold a lot...something I can really use. You made out real well finding your perfect match foundation color. For some reason that was really hard for me. I really want to order that 10 eye color kit julie. There are so many pretty shades. Wouldn't it be nice if EM...

    Hey everyone, My 2 children just got MP3 players for Christmas. I need to know which sites are the best to download music from? I'm new to this technology, but did manage to rip and burn my daughters Hannah Montana 2 celiac disease to her MP3 player. (major accomplishment, lol!) Thanks!
  21. Joni63
    LOL! I can relate Donna. I spent time laying out all my makeup for tomorrow...then figured out what clothes will look good with my makeup. Hahaha! I'd like to hear everyone's favorites so far. For me: foundation: Medium Beige Neutral (original or semi-matte, not sure yet) blush: Nick Nack and Chit Chat eye color: Silver Spoon eye liner: like...
  22. Joni63
    I'm having a blast mixing the colors. I think that is the best part of this makeup. Even shades that don't look so great can be fixed up to look GREAT. Don't worry about only ordering one kit, you will catch up soon I'm sure!
  23. Joni63
    LOL! Yes I am also addicted. Just had an order come in a couple days ago and am planning ahead already... I tried the Tinted Silk Dust finishing powder. It really doesn't seem to do much at all? I used the Eve brush to apply it, but I'm not sure about the shade. Anyone know how to select a finishing powder shade. Darker, lighte or same shade as regular...

    Hello, I am so thrilled to be baking and having great successes thanks to all the great suggestions and recipes from the terrific people on this site. Thank you! But since the holidays have come and almost gone (New Year's Day), I have gained some weight! Now I need to lose as part of my New Years Resolution (Yes, I have the same resolution...
  25. Joni63
    yay! Glad everything turned out well. It's nice to be able to make successful holiday dinners in the midst of this diagnosis. I must have missed that recipe, but I'll have to look it up. Sounds really good. I made the Perfect Pie Crust that someone (can't remember who?) posted and it was fabulous. I also made it for Thanksgiving and it was "perfect" both...
