wombling free

so about 5 minutes ago I saw a post about gluten free (and everything else free) cosmetics company, afterglowcosmetics.co.uk
i went straight to their gluten free section to see what they had to say about being a gluten free company..
and in that section it explains how most vitamin E in cosmetics is derived from wheat
the only allergic reaction to a cosmetic I have had was to my dr organic vitamin E moisturiser…where my eyes inflated and were all red and sore for days, and i looked like some kind of reaction panda
IF vitamin e = wheat = horrible reaction THIS THEREFORE explains everything
excuse me whilst i go and check every single thing i own and have a cry about it…I always get sore irritated eyes if i wear mascara for too long, so i have to take it off and sit there with cooling things on my eyes…is this connected? as if things weren’t already complicated enough
*sulks*
thank you! it’s so hard trying to read food labels, let alone complicated make up ingredients lists as well :/
it will probably be under tocopherol or tocopheryl in your cosmetics, instead of saying vitamin E. :/ it’s a real bummer
