Last week or so I asked if anyone had reaction to silicones as I started getting bumpies all around the nose and chin area recently (wish I could pinpoint when) so I stopped using my Regenerist by Oil of Olay as it has cones to see if it would cease and desist.

Well, still getting the bumpies and I was wondering if it could be from Vitamin E in a product. I currently use a mineral makeup that I love but it does have vitamin e in it. It would really stink if that was it, but I'm willing to lay off of it and see what happens.

Anyone get bumpies - not pimples per se, just tiny bumps on the skin? The product also contains Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxides - what about those?

Thanks Laughing

I've had the bumps from silicone before but have not had any problems with vitamin E (which does not mean that it can't happen). I have, though, also had the bumps for no apparent reason other than it being summer and humid and hot. Once the Dr prescribed a *very* mild hydrocortesone (sp?) cream it all went away.

Do you know if the mineral make-up contains bismuth oxychloride? I have read that some people can have a reaction to this particular ingredient that is commonly used in mineral make-up.
