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 :)

      Thanks for sharing this! Have you started taking the Amneal? I'm curious how it's going for you. My pharmacy gave me the option of Accord, Macleod or Amneal. I didn't realize that Amneal was formerly Lannett, or I might have chosen that one. However, I did read some anecdotal reports that some people had side effects with Amneal, so I chose Accord. I have been taking it for 3-4 weeks and the past 10 days I have developed extreme fatigue/sluggishness, joint pain and some brain fog. I don't know if it is the new levo med, but nothing else has changed. Has anyone else taken Accord levo? Any issues? It seems to fall into the "no gluten ingredients, but we can't guarantee 100%, but it's likely safe category." I'm wondering if it is worth switching to Amneal or at least getting my thyroid levels checked. If the med is causing my symptoms, I'm guessing it's not because of gluten but maybe the potency is different from Mylan and I need different dosing. Accord was recalled for lower potency, but my pharmacist said the pills I have were not part of that lot.
