Should I Buy New Brushes?

I am in the process of switching to gluten free makeup. I won't use any of it until it is all gluten free. I am afraid to use the current makeup brushes that I have with the new gluten free makeup. Is washing your current brushes good enough or should I just buy a new brush set to be on the safe side?

I just switched to a gluten free shampoo and am wondering if I should buy a new hairbrush? (I know, a little OCD, but it's better than getting glutened, right?)

If you feel that you are a little OCD about things, then it might make you feel better if you replaced all of these items. It really isn't necessary, though. It's all up to your comfort level. The only way a reaction is possible is if you are replacing these items due to a topical

wheat allergy and then I would probably replace them. You'd have to put the brushes in your mouth to spark a Celiac reaction and I doubt you'll ever do that! :P

Thanks! Yeah, my face has been breaking out, so I think I will go with the new brushes in that case and see if that helps :)

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.
