Allergic Reaction

THERE WILL BE NO PICTURE!

Last Thursday I used some crazy eye shadow colors and new make-up sponges. The sponges were not latex free. Friday morning I woke up with my eyelids so swollen the tops were hanging over the bottom of the lid. They deflated pretty quick but were still itchy and dry for a couple of days. I didn't wear any eye make-up all weekend long.

Yesterday I only put foundation on my lids when I went out with Paul but I used the new sponges. (I was convinced it was the shadow since nothing else on my face had reacted badly) There was also some crying yesterday, that makes my eyes puffy the next day but this goes beyond any crying puff.

My eyes are swollen from my brows to my cheek bones. The whole area is puffy. Very attractive! I am going to work today and boy am I excited to face the world. I have now set myself back several days. I will not be wearing make-up for a while and when I do I will not be using the new sponges. I hope that does it because this sucks. It is very uncomfortable.

Oh no! I didn't know you were allergic to latex. That sucks. I hope you heal up quickly.
