Lipstick/lip Gloss/balm

I have completely given up on wearing color on my lips because whenever I pick up a tube of something the ingredient list is overwhelming. Does anyone have a go to brand that is gluten-free that I can find in any drug store or dept. store? I will be in So. California soon to shop.

EOS lip balm is gluten-free and is sold in the big box stores. It is yummy.

Do a search with in the forum for more suggestions. It has been a topic many times.

Revlon colorstay lipstick is G F. (My mom wears it and I checked it out for her. ) You can call the company if you want verification.

 

I gave in and bought a tube of the Red Apple when I was at a G F Living conference. She "gave" it to me for $20.  I was surprised I gave in to that kind of highway robbery, ^_^ but it is pretty nice lip gloss.

 

It will last me forever as I mostly wear plain old Alba botanicals lipbalm with sunscreen now...Florida sun and all.

 

you can find it in many stores.

Is Burt Bee's Gluten free?  Their website says to contact them but no other info.  Just wondering if anyone has gotten that info yet?

I don't know about stores, but I have seen Lemongrass Spa, Arbonne, and a few others.

I'm pretty sure this is gluten-free  Open Original Shared Link  I use this, it's great!  I found an OLD gluten-free list searching this board, but it's from 2008 or something. On that list it shows that this is gluten-free...but it could have changed.

Juice Beauty (Whole Foods, Ulta) has a line of decent enough lip glosses.  The entirety of Juice Beauty's product line is gluten free.

 

I use their gluten-free mascara also.  It's just ok, kinda expensive, but works till I find a better gluten-free brand.   I used to use Clinique mascara, and was sad to find it contains wheat.

I don't worry about mascara.  Not sure if there are any with gluten.  The main things to worry about are the things, like lip gloss, that will get into your mouth.  I worry about shampoo and lotions, too - that's because I am clutzy and get that stuff in my mouth!

i take my eye makeup off with baby oil or makeup remover, so no worry of ingestion.  unless you have a wheat allergy (or you can lick your eyelashes <in which case call guinness book of world records lolz kidding) i just worry about things that i can get into my mouth accidentally.

ha JINX karen !  :D

I react topically to wheat as well.  For years I just thought my skin was "sensitive" but it was mostly just wheat.  The products I have found that work for me, like Philosophy, turned out to be the wheat free ones.

 

I realize that's not everyone though.

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

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
