Go Sherry get busy! When you're done you'll have a real lifetime supply of makeup foundation and finishing powder and then you can start tweaking the bases to make different finishes like I made one foundation base that is matte and for oily skin, another that is luminescent, and another that is for dry skin! I also made 4 finishing powder bases. One for dry skin that has luminescence, another for oily skin, silk powder, and angel finishing dust! Today I made like 7 different highlighters and bronzer shades. I can't even count how many blushes and shadows I'm at and I'm talking bags of product not small jars so now I did buy some jars from TKB but I need more! Still I'm looking at my table and I've got at least $600 worth of merchandise here but I only spent $100 on my supplies! And I still have a lot left to make more stuff!

Thanks Hoozey. I'm having a ball. I also made like 20 bars of soap last weekend! They smell and feel great too. I told my GF I'd give them some but dang I don't want to part with them

Yes they do. I'll
PM or email you some notes and guidlines that I used. I didn't follow the recipes but used foundations ingredients listings that I really love as a guidline and then "played" with the percentages. For instance. In some foundations Zinc is the main ingredient. This gives a different affect than if Titanium Dioxide is the main ingredient. In some, Mica is. Also In most TD is the main ingredient w/ the proportion being 2 to 1 TD to Zinc. If you want a more soothing formula increase the Zinc proportions. Also, for better adhesion there are various additional products to use. I'll
PM you!
I've had these supplies since January and they just sat. So I've been busy all morning
