I use that exclusively on my bunch. It works so well and doesn't wash off easily. It is especially good if other sunscreens irritate your skin.

I had no idea that there was gluten in sun screen. Which brands have gluten? I use the spray on ones from the can (store brand). I have melanoma and need to be careful in the sun. I can't believe I may have been glutening myself all this time. Thanks for the info.

I don't understand how someone can get glutened by sunscreen. If you got some in your mouth, would you not know it right away? Don't most people wash their hands after they put on sunscreen? :unsure:

I can see spray cans being an issue, but no one should get sunscreen in their mouth!

Dear Donna,

I am so sorry, I do not know which brands have gluten. I do know that Coppertone is supposed to be gluten-free. ALL Blue Lizard are gluten-free. They also have sunscreen protection against UVA AND UVB SUN RAYS.

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!! Maybe you should let your oncologist know about this one, because it protects against both types of rays...
Sincerely,
Lynn

Dear Doll,

Well, I thought so also, until I went to a Gluten Free Fair we had here in April, and it made me think. WHAT happens when you put make up on your face?? It gets absorbed into your skin... What happens when you wear Lipstick?? It ends up in your mouth..

Ok, May Kay has some gluten-free stuff. This is another Co that makes ALOT of gluten-free makeup and skin care, and body care and hair care. If you contact her, tell her I gave you the info. My name is LYNN. Here it is: CO: Nuskin. You can contact Kathy. Her email address is: mackeyk@bigplanet.com or makceyc@edifax.com Her phone number is 1 (757) 206-7140 ok.. GOOD LUCK.

THE GREAT THING ABOUT BLUE LIZARD IS THAT IT PROTECTS AGAINST UVA AND UVB RAYS!!

CONGRATS ON YOUR WEDDING.!!!!!!!!! SOUNDS LIKE IT WILL BE WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!

SINCERELY,
LYNN

Thanks! I'm really excited about the wedding! Everyone has to eat gluten-free...and there's no escaping it! :D

I am with you 100% on gluten-free lipsticks and other stuff that may get in your mouth..but I still use topical products that contain gluten, like body lotion and makeup (I always wash my hands after I apply it, in case I eat something with my hands). Gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin, and even if it could, it would need to be absorbed through the intestines to cause a reaction in Celiacs. I use Lancome Star Gloss (gluten-free) but I think they have discontiuned it. Thanks for the Mary Kay heads up...I know they have nice glosses!

Cheers!

I just added this from Clan Thompson, it helps explain what I am trying to say a little better! You can use your favorite products without worry (if you are careful to avoid CC onto your hands). I always wash with gluten-free soap before I eat anything with my hands, this takes care of CC. Please note that if you have a true gluten *allergy* and not Celiac,(IgE mediated), you might need to avoid topical gluten.


Q & A
Return to ->Ask the Doctor->Dermatitis Herpetiformis

QUESTION: I have heard that gluten is only a problem for celiacs if it's ingested and that we shouldn't worry about gluten in things like lipstick, lotions, or shampoo. Do people with DH (dermatitis herpetiformis) need to avoid skin contact with gluten? If not, why do so many complain that they react to any contact, even skin contact? What about something like lipstick or toothpaste which might be ingested? Should they be avoided? Thanks for your help.
DR. ZONE: There is always great concern about the possibility of topical gluten products causing problems. To start out with, gluten is not absorbed through the skin. There is little question about this. Topical gluten does not worsen dermatitis herpetiformis and it does not worsen celiac disease. If the topical product is eaten or licked as might be the case in lipstick, then the person is essentially eating that product and it would make sense that it would then be a problem. The same is true of toothpaste. I am well aware that many patients state that when they come in contact with gluten containing compounds that they cause problems. However, I do not know of any scientific basis for this and have a great deal of difficulty believing that this is activating celiac disease or dermatitis herpetiformis.

I often put sunscreen on when I am away from home or a sink - out in the woods hiking, out on the water kayaking, out randomly walking around the city with friends, out along a beach, at a random corner on my bike, etc. So, no, I don't wash my hands. I don't usually wash my hands when I put on sunblock at home either, since sunburns on the back of your hands hurt rather a lot. :)

Donna,

Hi, again. I know that I saw it in Stop N' Shop here by me (in Nassau) but, a small tube was expensive. Let me find the letter I got from them.. Send me an email with your address and I'll forward a copy of the letter to you. That way you can write to them, or order a larger size. It seemed cheaper that way. The tube in the store I saw was 9.99 for a tiny tube, but you can order mega sized on line or call and order..
Lynn

nm here it is. www.customerservice@crownlaboratories.com but now go and look up at the article from DR. ZONE.. I AM NOW SO CONFUSED...
