Afterglow Cosmetics: Gluten-Free, All Natural, Organic, Mineral Makeup

What do cosmetics, stamps, envelopes and medication have in common? They all use
gluten based ingredients as binders to help the products stick. Gluten, commonly
found in most grains like wheat, barley, rye, and oats, is a widely used protein
ingredient in the cosmetic industry.

Women (more often affected than men) that are allergic to gluten protein have a
genetic condition called Celiac Disease. Cases of Celiac Disease are on the rise.
It is reported that as many as one in every 133 Americans - approximately 2 million
people - may have the disease. Many of these women have a very hard time finding
gluten-free cosmetics.

Until now, women afflicted with this incurable condition would have to very
carefully read the ingredients to ensure that their cosmetic products were gluten
free. No longer! Afterglow Cosmetics offers a full line of gluten-free cosmetics to
take the guess work out of beauty.

Founder of Afterglow Cosmetics, Kristin Adams, is especially sensitive to the
concerns of women with Celiac Disease because many of the women in her family suffer
from the disease. \"I\'m proud to offer women a natural cosmetic alternative that is
also 100% gluten free. It is quite a challenge for women to understand all the
permutations that gluten based cosmetic ingredients can take. We make it easy for
them by guaranteeing that all our products are gluten-free,\" says Kristin.

Afterglow Cosmetics are infused with certified organic antioxidants to defend
against free radical damage. Afterglow\'s products boast a beautiful and flawless
finish with a 100% natural formula.

Made with the highest quality pharmaceutical-grade minerals and certified organic
ingredients such as organic rosemary leaf extract, organic grape seed extract and
organic pomegranate seed extract, this is mineral makeup at its best!
