As we discussed in our first article, gluten free makeup that you can fully trust is hard to find. However, it's surprising how ubiquitous gluten free lipsticks, glosses, and skincare are. And today, I'm going to be sharing some of my personal favorites!
Tarte
Tarte has some truly incredible products, and what's more, they specifically mention being gluten free on their website, with it reading, "All tarte products are formulated without gluten, as well as formulated without parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, sodium lauryl sulfate, & triclosan, just to name a few."
Not only this, but they have a range of amazing products; their lip glosses are to die for! I use their lip products, eye shadow, mascara, concealer, and blush regularly.
MAC
Even though MAC does have lipstick lines with gluten, the available options are amazing, not to mention their incredible customer service. I've visited both their stores and their pop ups in Nordstrom, and I've been impressed so many times! For example, when I arrived and explained my predicament, the people working there were quick to show me my available options, understanding and enthusiastic. It was one of my best makeup experiences to date!

Summer Fridays
Summer Fridays simply has spectacular quality and ingredients! At Sephora, they are a Clean company, and they've never caused me any problems or irritation. I used their lip balms regularly, and they're high quality.
Of course, there are so many other companies that are noteworthy that I simply haven't tried. After a quick Google search, I came across Afterglow Cosmetics, the first company to become CERTIFIED GLUTEN FREE by the Gluten-Free Certification Organization, which - in my opinion - is a huge step. Additionally, Kylie Cosmetics was listed as gluten free, along with Red Apple Lipstick, BareMinerals, and EpiLynx.
However, it's also good to note that while so many of these companies say gluten free, there is no way to guarantee that the facilities in which these products are made are necessarily celiac safe and completely sanitized. We still need to recognize that while this list showcases gluten free products, we must remain cautious as always!
Until next time,
