No, no - I didnt' mean it like that. It's like being prone to getting spots, just stay on top of it and it's fine. I don't think anyone would know this is me from these posts if that makes sense... I mean, my eyes are very very rarely bad enough these dasy for other people to notice so they wouldn't know I have it.

elvisjules why not start a new thread somewhere called looking for bundle?

Cod more about mineral make-up here, you may be able to sleep in it www.ivillage.co.uk/beauty/makeup/foundation/articles/0,,548141_699553,00.html

(under score always seems to go highwire - it should just be between 1 and 6)

codJane · 09/07/2007 13:09

day TWO of make up and NO ISSUES

wtf is oging on

tatt · 09/07/2007 15:48

cod - this may sound odd but it could be other things - like hay fever - making you react like this. If your body is going to react to make up it will do so more readily if you already have high levels of histamine from other things. Some foods contain histamine, especially Blue, Roquefort and Parmesan cheese, Spinach and Aubergine, Chianti and Burgundy and yeast extract or Marmite.

Or it may be soemthing other than an allergy.

Hi there,
I use the Aquaball and DryerBall - a natural way to do your laundry. (I can't use biological washing powder). They're great for sensitive skin, save you money and are better for the environment! Have a look at my site, www.drivensnow.co.uk for more details.

How long have you had it for Cod, it may be areaction to something you eat. I had what you describe after using some Centrum vitamins. I just stoped them, applied a good emolient regularly (aveno could do the trick), avoided make up, and within 2 weeks I was back to normal (and back to my normal make up)

A friend of mine gets it when she is exceptionally stressed.

sorry cod but sounds like you're joining the atopic clan (those prone to reacting to things). You may be reacting a bit to pollen (its a bad time now) but your eyes can cope as long as nothing else is irrtiating them.

Keep your dermatologist appointment even if things seem better.

TheCodDelusion · 16/07/2007 14:00
