OKAY! So now that I have made the connection between food and body issues/behaviour, now the little lightbulb is going off and I am realzing that all those cleaners/moisterizers/ have chemicals that are soaking in to my body!!!!Anyway..I've searched the boards and found several choices but still wondering what is the favorite out there?

I'm looking at the mineral stuff, bare and everyday as well as Mychelle and afterglow but I'm not sure how they compare price wise and size, customer service wise, and how well the skin care actually works (I've been using clinique/oil of olay for years and I won't even tell how dangerous they were ranked by skni deep)

Thanks

Stacie

I love MyChelle Honeydew Cleanser--I use it every day.

I used to use Bare Escentuals, but it started to make my face itch so I am using Everyday Minerals and like them very much. I use their foundation, blush, lip gloss and concealer.

Another company I really like is Andrea Rose--I use their lip gloss, mascara, and body/hand lotion. I plan on ordering the sunscreen next. I've spoken with Andrea, and she works very closely with the chemist to insure that the products are gluten-free.

Yeah, come join the thread! It's great fun, and as you can see, we are quite fond of the make-up (so much so that we can't seem to shut-up about it. :lol:)

For skin care, I like Aubrey Organics. Mychelle is good too (good, high quality stuff), but I seem to be sensitive to it for some reason (it makes my face bright red). They do have a good sample kit though if you want to check it out.

Giovanni shampoo and conditioner. I use Avalon organic lavender moisturizers and face wash for very sensitive skin. No fragrances, chemicals or gluten. Burts Bees lip shimmers. Isadora mineral powder - 100 minerals (at Walgreens).

I see you've already joined us on the Everyday Minerals thread :D

I have been using the Earth Science skin care line for several years now and I really like the products and how my skin feels. Everything I use is gluten-free and I looked it up over at Skin Deep and the numbers ranged from 2-7 (not particularly happy about the 7 :( , so i will be looking for a new moisturizer)

For make-up I use EM (concealer, foundation, blush, and eye shadows), Ecco Bella mascara (rates a 2 at Skin Deep :)), and Cowgirl lip balm (although they recently went out of business)

I like to use natural things also, I think it's good to get the toxic load down not only in food but with personal care products and cleaning supplies :)

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
