I love this!! It's a great time to be Gluten Free when mainstream makeup companies are advertising this! Considering the average woman consumes over 6 pounds of lipstick in her lifetime, I'd say this is a step in the right direction.  

I know, it's overwhelming! You didn't think you had to worry about gluten in your cosmetics, huh?! Just stick to the basics. Clean and natural whenever possible.  I like ALL my products to have very few ingredients.  If my 3 year old can't pronounce it, I don't want it.  That way, I know if my son decides he wants to lick the window, (which strangely both my kids have done) I know that I cleaned it with vinegar and water, so it's safe. And I also know that if I use all natural, fragrance free makeup, I won't be ingesting a bunch of junk. 

Sometimes though, it's not feasible. Organic and all natural can also mean more expensive. You have to pick and chose what's important to you. Things that come in contact with my kids are #1.  I used to use a mainstream bubble bath & baby shampoo...then I noticed my teething baby putting bath toys in his mouth and pretty much drinking the bath water.  Awesome.  Then, when they got out of the bath..their eyes were all red.  Never again with unsaid product.  I started using the Honest Company Bubble Bath and Shampoo and..no more red eyes.  Cleaning products are another big one in my house. Seventh Generation dish soap, Method most everything else and good old vinegar & water- can't beat the price of vinegar!  The makeup, shampoo & detergent change happened for me when I started getting red, itchy skin on my hairline and cheeks. After a lot of trial and error and wasted money on different products, I realized what was causing it. Companies use so much fragrance in their products, my skin could no longer tolerate it. It's a good thing it happened after I stopped modeling because I used to have all kinds of foreign makeup on my face.  

Anyway just happy to see this.  There really is no better time to be Gluten Free.

I am absolutely loving being an Independent Consultant for Thirty-One gifts!  I just got back from conference in Atlanta, Georgia where I learned so much.   It was amazing to be around thousands of like minded women all with a goal in mind.  We were inspired to be better mother's, wives and to not stop until we reached our ultimate goal with our business!
