The New Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion From Clinique

Hi there...I have recently purchased online the new moisturizing lotion from Clinique.  I found the link below, from what I can gather it appears that Clinique have introduced Barley into their new product...I cannot believe that they would do that and yet it looks to be correct...what are your thoughts please?

I am glad it is clearly labeled with (barley).  I will not use this product because of the cross contamination.  Not like a person would intentionally eat a face cream; but dipping your fingers into what is basically poison to us and expect to stay healthy!!?

No way would I use this product. It is bound to get in my mouth!

I use Cerave that can be found at Target for my lotions (thanks KarenG for the recommendation!). One of their facial lotions acts as a sunscreen as well. I use a lot of coconut oil too and it actually gets absorbed into the skin. I like the smell reminds me of the beach!

I wouldn't use it on my face- I always get my lotion on my lips - Yum... :wacko:

I cannot comprehend the logic behind changing Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion. 

 

By introducing Barley into the mix they have effectively cut their sales "Dramatically" 

 

I cannot help but wonder why, why it was necessary, and why they even thought it was a good idea to change something that works, and has worked well for years!!    I do believe this will stop many people that have purchased this product in the past, myself included.   I recently noticed that after I had applied the cream my eyes would start to water, and my nose itched, which is why I decided to take a closer look at this cream. 

 

I wonder does this make me one of those people that are really sensitive to Gluten then?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
