Gluten-Free Hand Lotion?

Kias4

Recommended Posts

I am looking for a verified gluten-free hand lotion, not just one that doesn't contain gluten ingredients.  I am having issues with cross-contamination according to my recent blood test, so I need to be extra diligent.  Right now I am using a labeled gluten-free body lotion for my hands, but it leaves my hands much more slippery than I'd like.  I'd love to find a hand lotion that soaks in quickly.  Any suggestions?

 

Thanks!

I use Jason's products.  They are certified gluten free and I've been happy with everything I have purchased so far.   Open Original Shared Link  They carry the line at Whole Foods if you have one nearby, otherwise they do sell off of their website.  I've been using this one as kind of an all over lotion and it's nice and thick but soaks in very quickly:  Open Original Shared Link

Thank you! I'm actually allergic to avocado, which is in Jason's gluten-free hand lotion.  Go figure. :)

Indeed, many lotions have gluten in them, and those that don't are subject to cross-contamination just like food.  If you never put your hands in your mouth and always wash them before you cook, then you may be fine with gluten lotions.  However, I bite my nails and have to lotion my hands frequently because I have dry skin.  Fortunately, my friend found me gluten-free hand lotion the other day.  It's EOS brand (which also makes gluten-free lip balm).  She found it at Bed, Bath, & Beyond in the travel cosmetics section.  It says gluten-free on the package.  :)

Oh boy, well that won't work.  You got me curious so I did some surfing and found this:  Open Original Shared Link  Maybe there is something in that list that will work?

I actually found EOS hand lotion, which I LOVE, and is gluten-free!  I originally bought it at Bed, Bath, and Beyond (random, I know), but I also saw it at Target the other day in the checkout lane.  It's non-greasy and absorbs quickly.  Definitely recommend. :)

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
