Sure, no problem. I was actually trying to dupe my favorite primer ever, and I had help from the owner of that company on another forum (garden of wisdom), which is also where I bought all the ingredients, so it was mainly just luck that she was on that forum and willing to help me. The ingredients are rice powder, silk powder, allantoin, and arrowroot powder. I'm trying to remember my mix because now I just eyeball it, but it's about 70% rice powder, 20% arrowroot, and 5% each allantoin and silk dust. Some people break out from rice powder so that's somethng to keep in mind, but I have some of the most acne-prone skin you'll ever see and it doesn't break me out. You can use more silk dust if you want, but it's much more expensive for a much smaller quanitity. I know someone who uses just straight arrowroot powder, but I was told to keep it at no more than a 20% concentration, but GoW does tend to err on the side of caution.

I completely missed this thread, and am hopping in late. That's wonderful!

Thanks Karen. I was just planning on updating this thread anyway. My skin still looks clear which is not usual for me. I love this foundation. Unfortunately I still have some edm left and I don't want to use it now. I'm not sure if the edm was breaking me out or if the silk in the sn is helping keep my face clear. Either way I think I will give my edm to a friend that still uses it. I can't wait to try the skin care.
