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.

      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.
    • trents
      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.

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can take 12–24 months (sometimes longer) for antibodies and the intestinal lining to fully heal, particularly in teens and young adults. Eating gluten again to “test” things isn’t recommended and won’t give you clear answers—it’s far more likely to cause harm than clarity. Weight not changing is also very common in celiac and doesn’t rule anything out. Please know that your frustration and sadness matter; this adjustment is hard, and feeling stuck can really affect mental health. You deserve support, and if you can, reaching out to a GI dietitian or mental health professional familiar with chronic illness could really help you through this phase. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people.
