Does anyone use CO Bigelow Rose Salve? I have the labeling, but am not 100% sure it is gluten-free (cosmetics can be tricky, especially when I cannot pronounce the ingredients, let alone know what they are  ).
Nothing looks suspicious here, but I would rather be safe then sorry when it comes to lip balm.
Ingredients: Petrolatum, Lanolin oil, Squalane, Flavor (aroma), Octyldodecanol, Goossypium Herbaceum (cotton) seed oil, Rosa Canina Fruit Extract, Bisabolol, Jojoba esters, Red 30 lake.

I would contact the company. The only thing that looks questionable is the 'flavors'.

Thank you - I can read labels for food fairly well, but when it comes to cosmetics and such, it is a foreign language to me!
I emailed the company yesterday, so *hopefully* I get a response.

I love that stuff, used it for a while, no problems other than the petrolatum bothered my lips, so I gave it away.
