    when i used to go to the gym i was like a beetroot :o:(

    used to feel very self concious which of course made it worse ! :(

    Why oh why can't someone invent something to stop this?!! I love running but also resemble a beetroot as a result during and up to an hour after. Id love to be able to just take a pill or rub some cream on my face before exercise to stop it.
    love my little man he is amazing :j

    Me no. but once you have the powder on the brush you can just give a quick brush over. (no more powder)

    I'm blaming you guys, since i started discussing it I've broken out with spots across my cheeks and chins. Its all you fault. :p

    As Rikki - just a fluff over with the brush without adding more minerals. I sometimes need some mineral veil for the shiny forehead

    I've got a couple of the b*ggers come up....

    Thats what happens when you brag... :o:o:o me that is... :o:o:o

    It is also the weather and central heating n stuff. Amazingly, I was fine in Cyprus earlier on in the year... and they say that sun shine has nothing to do with skin problems. Right. :rolleyes:

    I ordered some eye shadows and new brushes and stuff from Nicola at Elemental Beauty. It arrived yesterday - beautifully packaged as per usual. I will play with it all at the weekend.

    I am interested in using the eye shadows as liner and to see if you can use it to do an inner eye liner too.

    I love new 'toys'!!
