I have been trying to search the boards before asking. I was wondering if anyone knows if these products are ok:

Wakmart brand of bluemint mouth rinse

Suave 24 hour deoderent

Cover girl brow and eye brow line

Revlon color stay foundation

maybeline coverstick concealer and maybeline full n soft mascara waterproof

Rimmel products like say matte pressed powder and bronzer

dove sensitive skin bar

Are there any make up product lines that are gluten free and not really exspensive?

Do I have to worry about dental floss??

The Delphi List may help as a guideline with products. It has alot of makeup on there including brands you mentioned.

Dove is a brand that will not hide anything and they will clearly list wheat,rye,barley,oats on the label if it contains any.

The Bare Escentuals makeup line is gluten free(but not their skin care line)

You do have to check anything and everything including dental floss. When you go to the dentist and they clean your teeth and work in your mouth you have to check the products that they use because some do contain gluten.

Feel free to email me if you have any questions :)

I contacted Walmart by phone and email....they have NO Clue about gluten. I wrote Butler/ GUM and their dental floss is gluten-free. Revlon and Maybeline answered when I inquired about Gluten " We can not guarentee our products do not contain gluten".

has anyone ever found a dental floss that does contain gluten?

Crest makes the Glide dental floss. I called them today and they told me that their toothpaste and Glide dental Floss is ok.

They did day that they have a new product called Pro Health Mouth Wash that may contain traces of Gluten, so they advised me to stay away from it.

I do not like to correct anyone, but this is our health at stake here. I do not know if anyone reads the company replies I post so I gave up on posting them...if you want I'll show you the one from DOVE I got 2 days ago. While Gluten may not be an ingrediant listed in their soap, they DO NOT check for cross cantamination and their process lines are NOT pure.

Hi Eeyor fan (my daughter and I love eeyor!),

I'm not sure why you think no one is interested in your responses from various companies but I certainly am and I'm betting that a lot of others are too. I'd love to see the response you got from the Dove people, especially since I use Dove soap (and I'm really itchy lately).

I know that with some companies the replies seem to really vary, for example everyone here says that the make up Bare Essentuails is gluten free (and I do use it and love it) but their reply to me was a bit different... they told me I would have to call on each product, they did say their mineral foundations were gluten-free but as for the rest they told me to call with my list of products that I use. To me that clearly says that the entire line is NOT gluten free.

Anyhow... I'd love to see the response you got from Dove if you care to share it.

Hi, Thanks for writing! We do not specifically test our products for the presence of gluten, a sticky protein found in some grains such as wheat. Gluten may be present in products that contain derivatives of wheat, oat, rye, and barley. In labeling our products, our company follows the guidelines established by the International Nomenclature for Cosmetics; Ingredients (INCI) process. Therefore, if we use an ingredient derived from a grain such as wheat, oat, rye, and/or barley, those names will appear on the label. One common example is "Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein". If you see this on the label, the material was derived from wheat, so the product may contain gluten. Sadly, we cannot guarantee our products as gluten free since all Dove products travel over the same product lines in manufacturing. Thank you for your interest!

Your friends at Dove

Hope this helps people!

Eeyore is my fave!!

The reason I felt "no one cared" if I posted my findings or not is...I posted this like a week ago in my "Product Updates" and I guess no one read it (there is one letter because these companies are all owned by Revlon and I got the same letter from all 3)!

I'm just trying to help people.

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
