    The best face powder in the world!

    I absolutely adore Jurlique silk finishing powder both the lavender and the rose versions (there is also a citrus powder) I find they keep me matte all day but they are not heavy and they never clog my pores. They are great for my pale skin as well as they are translucent.

    Vintage/Retro Cosmetic brands?

    I just stumbled upon this product whilst I was actually researching another... They are called frownies and they originally started in 1889! http://www.frownies.net.au/frownies-history.html There is a US, UK site etc... I think that is kind of amazing that in 1889 a product was created for...

    Any rosacea sufferers out there??

    Miss C - not a problem, I hope they work out for you! MissNathalieVintage - that's very interesting, I tried using cold cream recently after all the rave reviews... feels wonderful when it's on but once I take it off my skin stings and goes quite red. I tried to give it time to see if it was...

    actually A'kin is really good for rosacea in particular the rose & geranium pure creamy cleanser, the toner, and the unscented 24hr pure moisturizer.

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Hi Tyler I definately understand the issue of not meeting people your own age that are interested in all things vintage, It can be hard been the odd one out! That is very cool that your first ride was a 1928 ford model A coupe! I would love to drive around in a vintage car... but uhh... oops I'm...

    Any rosacea sufferers out there??

    Miss C I use a Natralia Nourish Naturals skin oil, its so lovely... but I see your in the UK so I'm not sure if it would be available, I find A'kin's rosehip oil and emergency gel are also both really great for calming flare ups and I think in the UK they are stocked fairly well...? I alternate...

    Finding the Palest Foundation

    I've only tried the manic panic one... I was really really happy with the results so I havn't felt the need to try any others yet! Let me know how you go, it's made a huge difference to my confidence having foundation that actually matches my skin 100%! Have fun in Vegas :)

    Finding the Palest Foundation

    Another good trick if you can't find a liquid foundation light enough you can add manic panics dreamtone white foundation to it, as much or little as you need, works wonders ;)

    Cologne and perfume

    I have been using Mor Marshmallow, It is my signature scent although it took for what feels like an eternity to find the one that was just right for me... The description makes it sound sickly sweet but it is quite a subtle and powdery scent and it comes in a bottle that I just adore...

    Any rosacea sufferers out there??

    oh and I meant to add if my skin is feeling particularly sensitive from my rosecea, does anyone else get that pain that feels sore and raw? I don't get that as much now that I have switched products but If I do get a little but sore I also use a natural skin oil and this helps too :)
