Thanks
I was wondering about the Dramatically Different Moisturizing lotion

[mftnchn]

I have seen several references on this forum that dramatically different moisturizing lotion is gluten-free. I have been using it without obvious problems so far. So that matches this information Clinique just sent me.

Thanks for finding out about the comforting cream cleanser! I have it, but been afraid to use it. Waiting on Clinuque for a few things!

Thank you for your interest in Clinique.

While a formulation may contain no wheat, oat, barley or rye derivatives,
for the benefit of our gluten-sensitive consumers who may have
cross-sensitivities, Clinique takes the extra precaution of including corn,
rice and soy in our research.

Clarifying Lotion 1 contains alcohol denatured (various grains); soy
(glycerin, processing aid for sodium hyaluronate); corn (trehalose).

We trust that the above addresses your concern. We hope you will look to
Clinique for all your skin care and makeup needs.

Sincerely,

Should I be worried about the alcoho!l?

[mftnchn]

I don't know. Maybe ask in a new thread as people who don't use Clinique might not view the thread here. Somebody probably knows. I think it is pretty likely the grain is wheat, corn or barley.

Here's further information I just received from Clinique:

Clarifying Lotion 1 contains: alcohol denat. (various grains); soy
(glycerin, processing aid for sodium hyaluronate); corn (trehalose)

City Base Compact Foundation 01 pale contains - corn (aluminum starch
octenylsuccinate)

Naturally Gentle Eye Makeup Remover contains - corn (arginine)

Thanks to everyone that did the research on these products. I have now pinpointed that the "all about eyes" cream is what has been causing this rash on my face. Ive been using it for years, but the rash just showed up about a month ago, so I didn't connect the two until I went to my dermatologist and she said it looked like an allergic reaction to something. Then I started to research.
Thank you again!!! Does anyone have any suggestions on a replacement eye cream? I know Arbon has good stuff, and it's all gluten-free, but it's really expensive.

I have used Cinique products since I was 16 (so over 30 years!) I was diagnosed with a wheat allergy/gluten intollerance back in 2008 and have been gluten-free since that time. I have had no issues with any of the clinique products. At this time I use the Perfectly Real Makeup. I have tried many of their samples as I always purchase my clinque during bonus times. I hope this helps.
