I think there may be some places in PDX that sell it, but nope, it's not available elsewhere that I know of.
I've tried both Bare Minerals and Aromaleigh and they both make my skin itch.
Aromaleigh added silica to their formula at some point, which has always been a break-out trigger for me. It's also not as finely milled as Alima or Mineral Boutique or some of the others I've tried. It helps a lot to apply it with a flocked sponge, as I found kabuki brush application irritated my skin no matter how soft the brush.
Yeah, I have an appointment at 4:30. I would cancel cause I feel more human today than I have since Saturday, but my mom keep reminding me that this has been an ongoing problem for a few months. I'm so tired of doctors. I mean, this could be a side effect of the iron (7% chance), allergies, hormones.......

What is a flocked sponge?
Cindy--they send sample packages, so you can figure out what works for you.
Thank you, Robin. I went to Alima's website after reading your post about it, yesterday. I'm already 3/4s sold. The samples are affordable. I just like seeing stuff in person. I take it they're an order-only line, then?
Major work crisis is over, so I can poke my head in here.
Ah - another penguin tag!
It's best to get it checked out, Suzi. Finding a cause may help prevent them in the future.
My stupid sciatica has only gotten worse here and I'm having trouble walking even around the resort. Pain alternating with numbness shooting up and down my right leg. I had to skip a tour of Old San Juan and the rum factory and pretty much give up on any activities beyond lounging (diamond sandals are too tight).
I'm hoping the MRI reveals something that is treatable when I get home.

Uh oh.

You're that teacher with the really really cool class. Just so you know.
Awww! Thanks. You just made my morning.
Health-ma, Cash.
Uh oh. ::glances Teppyward::
Yes. This is a fear.
I know, O Pain-Having Cashmere. But if you continue glancing Teppyward, you'll also see how totally treatable it is. I can lift weights (that's the only equivalent I can think of to lifting Big and Little Os), bellydance, fence, and have acrobatic sex.
It's totally fixable. And, generally, fixable without surgery. I was on the far side of the bell curve.
