Is There Absolutely Any Kind Of Gluten Free Hand Wipes?

I know many people have asked and been met with hand sanitizer instead but here's the thing...

Sometimes I LARP. Live Action Roleplay. At least once during the weekend you have to NPC...which means play a non player character. Canon fodder. You are there to fight against the characters. It's something everyone has to do at least a couple hours every LARP weekend even if they play their main character. Here's the thing..I MAY have found gluten free character make up (i play a humanoid cat race)..but...during NPC shifts...they use face wipes to wipe make up off.

You may go out for 60 minutes as one kind of monster..come back wipe off your face with wipes and use the makeup to create another monster...different colors etc represent different beings.

What would I do for this?

Also...would I have to worry about sharing masks that other people have worn? full face latex masks that are pretty tight to the face sometimes? should i be worried? i'm sure there is someone gluten sensitive who MUST be there...

But the hand wipes stuff has been bothering me anyhow...is there absolutely anything??? The building we paint our faces in during those shifts doesn't have a sink or running water.

I would take 3 small handtowels or washcloths, wet them and put soap on one then seal them in seperate plastic baggies. One to soap, two to wipe soap off. You know they will be safe and freindly to the enviroment.

I guess I would have to ask one of the leaders who stay there to make sure no one uses them...it's just sometimes there is a hell of a lot of paint to wipe off...sometimes 3 or 4 times...full face make up..oh what a mess it will be =\ Any suggestions on the masks? I just realized even the face pain is prably contaminated somehow..i'd have to ask *sighs*

So there really is no safe wipes out there? Why is that anyhow?

I'm not too familiar with your experiences. But, when exchanging masks, clean wipe might eliminated some shared lipstick of lip balm, near your mouth.

Maybe others can recommend a brand that is suitable.

I would be surprised to know of any antibacterial-wipe would contain any gluten. Think of gluten as a "crumb" not as a "bacteria or virus", although it might affect us as if it were. B)

wet some paper towels with alcohol & put in a baggie or just bring a bottle with you & paper towels.

I'm curious... Which make- up wipes or diaper wipes that you have found with gluten?

I have been using cottonelle wipes for years, did not even dawn on me to check the label, I am very sensitive and they work fine, I also use by friends baby wipes, they smell good, with out any problems, it even takes off makeup.

On May 8, 2012, I got the following info from the manufacturer: "Our Pampers Sensitive Wipes are gluten free. Our manufacturing facilities are gluten free as well." I did not ask them about any of their other wipes because they all have fragrance.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      For my Vit D3 deficiency it was recommended to take with Vit K2 (MK7) with the Vit D. The Vit K2 helps absorption of Vit D3. Fat also helps with absorption. I take Micro Ingredients Vit D3 5000 IU with Vit K2 100 micrograms (as menaquinone:MK-7). Comes in soft gels with coconut oil.  Gluten free but not certified gluten free. Soy free, GMO free.

      @Known1, I submitted the following comment along with my contact information: "I have noticed that many food companies voluntarily include information in their ingredient/allergen label section when the product is made in an environment where cross contamination with any of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA may also be likely. Even though celiac disease and gluten sensitivity are, technically speaking, not allergic responses, it would seem, nonetheless, appropriate to include "gluten" in that list for the present purpose. That would insure that food companies would be consistent with including this information in labeling. Best estimates are that 1% of the general population, many undiagnosed of course, have celiac disease and more than that are gluten sensitive."

      Celiac Disease causes more vitamin D deficiency than the general population because of limited UV sunlight in the winter and the little available from food is not absorbed well in the damaged small intestine.  Taking 10,000 IU a day (250 mcg) a day broke my depression. Taking it for eleven years.  Doctor recently said to not stop.  My 25(OH)D is around 200 nmol/L (80 ng/ml) but it took about six years to get there.  Increasing vitamin D also increases absorption of Calcium. A good start is 100-gram (3.5-ounce) serving of salmon,  vitamin D from 7.5 to 25 mcg (300 to 1,000 IU) but it is going to take additional vitamin D supplement to be effective.  More importantly salmon has an omega-6 to omega-3 ratio 1:10 anti-inflammatory compared to the 15:1 infammatory ratio of the typical Western diet.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts.  I respectfully disagree.  You cherry picked a small section from the page.  I will do the same below: The agency is seeking information on adverse reactions due to “ingredients of interest” (i.e., non-wheat gluten containing grains (GCGs) which are rye and barley, and oats due to cross-contact with GCGs) and on labeling issues or concerns with identifying these “ingredients of interest” on packaged food products in the U.S. “People with celiac disease or gluten sensitives have had to tiptoe around food, and are often forced to guess about their food options,” said FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, M.D., M.P.H. “We encourage all stakeholders to share their experiences and data to help us develop policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices.” --- end quote Anyone with celiac disease is clearly a stakeholder.  The FDA is encouraging us to share our experiences along with any data to help develop future "policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices".  I see this as our chance to speak up or forever hold our peace.  Like those that do not participate in elections, they are not allowed to complain.  The way I see it, if we do not participate in this request for public comment/feedback, then we should also not complain when we get ill from something labeled gluten-free. Have a blessed day ahead, Known1
