Everday Minerals Problem...

I am sad...

I think it is making me break out.

My skin was really clear and pretty and then I got those samples and about 2 weeks after I started using them my skin is zitty and not cute. I stopped using it and am going to see if it clears up, and if so, I know it's probably the makeup. That would make me sad because it covered so well and looked so nice!

I had a flare out when I switched, but it died down, so I thought it was just pms or something...hmmmm....

OH ! BM has never broken me out. It could be the formula you are using like missD said. My face is broken out like crazy right now from the kidney infection that i had. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to clear it up?

I bought three diff. formulas to see which one i liked best (either semi-matte or matte...the intensive wears off way too quickly).

Odd...I think the intensive lasted the longest compared to the semi-matte.
I didn't have any problems breaking out with EM. Is there something else new you have been using?

^nope...just that stuff. I haven't been doing anything new.

It *could* be related to stress/lack of sleep (like apparently everything else with me) but truly I have been stressed ever since school started and my stress level now (and for the past couple of weeks) has actually been compartively low.

It could definitely be stress, I know the school stress thing pretty well Mikayla, and it messes with all sorts of things, and one bit of advice, 17 credit hours, with 2 advanced courses, is not a challenge, it is putting yourself through hell for no reason.

And a side note, I received a new foundation from them today, and do not recall ordering it or being on autoship, and asked them about, turns out it was a shipping error and it's mine free of charge. They have awesome customer service! I fyou find out that the EM is the problem, Mikayla, I'm sure you will get a full refund!

well it's only 3.37 cents so I'm not too worried about it.

but I think it was the EM because after not using it for just two days my face is clearing up dramatically. zits are getting smaller, and I can't feel them underneath my skin anymore.

I guess this means no EM for me.
