Hi Everyone,
I'm new to posting on the forum. I love makeup, skincare, hair care, all the beauty stuff. I'm married, I have 3 teenagers and I'm a homemaker. About 4 yrs ago I was dx with Fibromyalgia and I'm often fatigued and/or not feeling well and without makeup people can tell. People would say, you don't look well or you look very tired..etc. So, I started really researching products and ingredients that would help me look healthier and hide the dark circles. Now they can't tell. I've had a blast doing it and love it. It's so much fun but I want everything. lol
I'm looking forward to talking to you all!

Hi Laura, thank you for the welcome! I'm really like Smashbox Diffuse under eye concealer (easy to apply, covers and blends well) and Vincent Longo camouflage creme (it has a thicker consistancy so you only need to apply very little but blends and covers good). It's not dry or cakey like most of the creme concealers I've tried. But, because I'm always looking for new ones to try to see if they cover even better.. right now I want to try Benefits Bio-ing and NARS eye brightner. Have you tried them? I've tried so many and was disappointed. Such as; Revelon Cream concealer & the Skinlight concealer, Dermablend, Diorlift smoothing anti-fatigue concealer, Paula Dorf camouflage cream and so many more...I'll post as many I can remember in the reviews. lol

Have a good day.

Hi Tess, thank you for the welcome! How old are your daughters? I have 2 boys (17 w/special needs & 20) and 1 daughter (18). They all live at home and I think their goal is to see which one can drive me nuts first. lol

Maybe she will! That would be great, Diane! We'd all love to read your opinions!

Hi Tony,

Thank you for the warm welcome! I'm having so much fun reading all the reviews and the cool topics. I'm trying to get use to the posting format. Do we need to post a copy of each persons post that we are replying to? Because, I haven't figure that out yet. lol

Have a good day.

Welcome to MakeupTalk! Sorry to hear about your Fibromyalgia. I'm glad that you have found beauty products that help you with the condition. I have Crohn's disease (intestinal disease) and it has caused me some skin problems before but I've been doing better in the past 8 years. I remember when my condition was really bad I would get really bad breakouts on just one side of my face in one spot. I've been doing a lot better now. I do get flare ups though every once in a while and have to stay in bed for a couple of days but then I get better.
