Hello!I was wondering if anyone has been tested for food allergies to determine if a particular food is causing inflammation, which in turn could exacerbate FFA. I had the skin test a couple of years ago at an allergy clinic, and it came back…Continue

Hello All, I am venturing into new territory. It just dawned on me that a good experiment would be to try a medical grade CBD oil tincture on my hairline and see if it affects the redness. CBD is the nonpsychoactive part of marijuana that is being…Continue

I didn't realize the Joan Rivers came with a brush, yes that would make it easier along the hairline... I apply bare minerals bronzer powder with a brush along my hairline sometimes, why have I never thought to try BnB using a brush at the difficult to apply hairline/temples area! Bu, I am so so happy to hear that this is helping you, it is amazing how it works and covers up the shiny areas & I agree, Lauren has awesome info!
Awesome Bu! I am so happy you are happy with it :-D
Question for you, I did look at the Joan Rivers Great Hair Day, how do you like it and how do you use it with the BoostnBlend?
Also, just back from my monthly Dermo. visit, got my usual steroid injections along the hairline & eyebrows, this time she diluted it a bit and injected on the top of the scalp also. I am going to stay with just topicals & steroid injections for the time being as I am having such bad reactions to the minocycline and plaquenil :-/
Bu and Minter, I'm glad you found the blog helpful. I'm happy to share a good resource!
Gracie T, it is because of you that I found it, thanks for posting the link :-)
BU, I think you will be happy with it too! It took a few days for me to get the application down- this is what I do, I give my hair a quick shot with the blow dryer first and then shake the powder on the top of my head at the part, along my hairline and above my ears & blend it in along with the roots, then I do a double check with my hand mirror to make sure I got it all the shiny spots & reapply if I missed any, then smooth my hair all out (it gets a little wild after all the blending) & spritz hairspray lightly at the roots- my hair does look fuller too after using this, haha I am always looking in my rearview mirror now and liking what I see, no more shiny scalp!
Oh now I understand. Thanks for sharing. I am not ready for shaving, I still have enough in back and on the side up towards the crown for a clip in. I will keep you all posted on the custom piece made from a mold that will give me a hairline and "sideburns"..... waiting anxiously.
