Do you miss walking into stores and just buying whatever struck your fancy? Or being able to test the colors on your skin before committing to a purchase?

If you’re extremely sensitive to topical gluten, you probably already have The Gluten Free Makeup List and so know what stuff you can play with. But if you’re not-so-sensitive and just want to avoid major gluten ingredients, how do you know where to look?

I’ve gotcha, girl. I contacted every. single. company. that is CURRENTLY carried in Sephora. And yeah, if you think that took me a full work-week’s of time, you’d be darn right.

With THIS knowledge in hand, I have compiled the answers of all the companies who claim their products are gluten-free. If they gave a more detailed answer, I gave it to ‘ya.

As always, it’s up to you to decide where your comfort level is. If you only want strictly and safely gluten-free brands, check out The Gluten Free Makeup List. If you want to explore a little more, check out what you can buy in Sephora below.
