Red Apple Lipstick is based in Houston, Texas, and all of their makeup is gluten free. Not only is it safe for Celiacs, it is also free of dairy, soy, and other major allergens. For those who don't have food allergies but are worried about chemicals, Red Apple Lipstick is also paraben free and lead free. I have several food allergies and do not like putting chemicals on my skin; therefore, Red Apple Lipstick is the perfect makeup for me. I like that I do not have to read a tiny ingredients list to wonder if a product is safe for me to use.
Red Apple Lipstick offers lipstick, lip gloss, an amazing balm & exfoliating stick, lip pencils, and eye shadows. Not a full line of cosmetics but they are working hard every day to create new items to add to their already fabulous line. A foundation is in the works, which is very exciting, and I am hoping for a mascara soon.
My first purchase of RAL was a lipstick. Their lipstick is the creamiest, most moisturizing, full color I have ever tried (and believe me, I've tried numerous brands). A person really doesn't even need a balm underneath.
However, if you do use balm, Red Apple's Rallye Balm is the bomb. Ultra-moisturizing, soft, SPF 8, and glides on like a dream. It comes in a tube or tub depending on your preference. Something new that I have tried is their Exfoliate Stick. For those of us who live in a harsh, cold climate and have issues with flaky, chapped lips, this stick is awesome! It rids your lips of the flakes, prepping and smoothing it for balm and lipstick. This product is something I didn't think I needed until I tried it.

Red Apple Lipstick's eye shadows are long-lasting, rich and vibrant in color, and easy to apply. I've been using loose mineral shadow for a long time so it was a little weird going back to a pressed version. I love the colors and the ease of blending. The shadows come separately in their own little pans or you can buy a palette and store your pans in it. The pans are magnetic and clip into the palette. A very neat idea and you can reuse the palette once your colors are used up, ready for new ones. Red Apple really has thought of everything creating their fantastic products.
In addition to Red Apple Lipstick's revolutionary products, their online community is one-of-a-kind. Their website (www.redapplelipstick.com) is full of informative blogs, how-to's, customer comments, and more. The Twitter (@RedAppleLipstic) and Facebook (www.facebook.com/RedAppleLipstick) media sites are active every day with new product info, customer feedback, and more. I have found the staff to be very helpful on Twitter in helping me pick out colors and combinations. They even have a VIP Club for members to receive 20% off every month.
You can't find RAL in stores. Right now they take online and phone orders. Some people may find this inconvenient, but their products are well worth the wait. For those of us with food allergies, it's peace of mind knowing that these products are safe, allergy free, chemical free, and vegan.
With this being January and a New Year full of promise, do yourself a favor. Throw out all of your old, toxic makeup and treat yourself to some new and beautiful Red Apple Lipstick!
