What do you all use for makeup if any? I was using this one kind but I think it's making things worse. I read about Afterglow Cosmetics. They look great but pricey. I don't need a lot, just a light foundation or a tinted moisturizer or something. I've been using Carmex on my lips which seems to be great but my face with dh on my cheek looks kind of bad.

I got the Afterglow & love it! I don't put it on very often but it does a great job of covering up my "sun spots" or liver spots or whatever you want to call them & I have some VERY dark ones on a VERY pale face. I got just one of their little starter kits so I could try it w/o sinking tons of money into it. The starter kit has no shadow or mascara but has foundation & blush. It feels very light to me & I can't stand make up that I can *feel* on me. I can wear this all day & forget I even have any on. It stays on well too & doesn't migrate into your wrinkles. Soon I will get some shadow & mascara from them. I think the starter kit was $68 incl. s&h. You get plenty in it.

And they have a great return/satisfaction policy!

When money isn't so tight, I will have to order some Afterglow. It looks great. For now I am using Neutrogena tinted moisturizer. It's so so.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
