I've been using Mary Kay's oil free foundation for several years. I thought it
might be good to find out if it's gluten free, because I get it on my lips
sometimes. Surprisingly, the MK company gave my salesperson a hard time about
getting the information. I was told I needed a note from my doctor, and then
my doctor would have to call them directly! I said I refused to give my doctor
busy work, and they should tell me or they'd lose a customer anyway.

It turns out there is wheat and corn gluten in the makeup. I realize some
people would continue to use it since it is not directly ingested, but I'm not
sure I want to do that.

Could someone please recommend a really good oil controlling foundation that
is gf? Makeup is so expensive... it would be nice to get a recommendation
rather than just start experimenting.

Thanks for your help.
