Gluten-Free Affordable Makeup

Hi, I have been using makeup for about a year now. I was officially diagnosed with a gluten sensitivity about 6 months ago, though I have been avoiding gluten for about 4 years. I am having trouble finding safe, affordable makeup. I have been using mainly ELF and Rimmel, but I want to branch off into some more brands. I have been trying to research about L'Oreal, CoverGirl, and Maybelline, but I have come up empty handed as every site says something different. I specifically would like to find more foundations and concealer, though verifying the safety of a brand would suffice as well. I am currently recovering from an allergic reaction, I used a concealer that has made my face extremely red and dry -- my skin is almost pealing like after a sunburn. Please help me find more safe makeup brands.

I gave up for a while looking into makeup, but at some point would like to again.  I just got burned out researching things free of gluten, corn, and soy. As it is, right now I have about eight more pharmaceutical companies, trying to find safe versions or alternatives to two prescriptions I am taking.  But if I ever find out about makeup, I'll come post about it here.  It must be a hard thing to verify because I never seem to get a lot of very certain, definite answers so far on it. I have been just using the Badger Balm tinted rose facial sunscreen as sort of my foundation (I am photo sensitive so need sunscreen daily).  The slight tint, plus I am on the pale side anyway is enough to give light coverage, not a lot.  I thought I heard there are some mineral powder foundations that are suppose to be gluten-free, but I have not looked into that yet.  It is frustrating.  I hope you can find something that does not bother you.  It seems it can be a long process to figure out all you food issues, not to mention vitamin supplements, body care products, over the counter meds, prescriptions, etc.  that don't bother us.  It is a process. Hang in there.

Red Apple lipstick (I don't really like the colors they offer though)

Colour Pop is marketed as gluten-free too. They are not too expensive.

      Weakly positive DGP IgA

      By the way, you need to repost those numbers in your first post and add the reference ranges. Different labs use different reference ranges so the test scores by themselves aren't very helpful, especially when the values may be borderline positive. It would need to be in a new post window as the edit function times out quickly such that you can't go back...

      Weakly positive DGP IgA

      I ate two pieces of toast each morning for three weeks prior to testing. The rest of the day I ate whatever. I am going to increase the gluten for four weeks and ask my doc to retest. I did read that false positives are possible, so I think it’s reasonable to retest. But I am very new to this, so not feeling confident.

      Weakly positive DGP IgA

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Cat M! Were you consuming generous amounts of gluten for a significant period of time (weeks/months) before the blood draw and test results you posted? I ask because you say you would like to be retested after consuming gluten for a few weeks. Current guidelines for the gluten challenge call for the daily consumption of at least...

      Positive TTG antibody and negative EMA antibody

      I recently reviewed a patient with a positive tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibody but negative endomysial antibodies (EMA). The patient is asymptomatic, and duodenal biopsies—taken while on a normal gluten-containing diet—were reported as normal. Given the discordant serology and absence of histological changes, I understand that the probability of ...

      Old to diagnosis

      I was diagnosed with celiac in 2019 but was never told how serious this all could be! I have not taken this diet serious due to it being brought to me as optional if you get sick deal with it or go gluten free! I would like to know how to stick to a gluten free diet fully worried I’ve already caused to much damage

It would need to be in a new post window as the edit function times out quickly such that you can't go back and make changes to the original. What symptoms do you have? What has led you to investigate the possibility of having celiac disease?

I ask because you say you would like to be retested after consuming gluten for a few weeks. Current guidelines for the gluten challenge call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (the amount found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least 2 weeks. But I would go for longer than that to be sure, say 4 weeks. Testing is invalid when people have been gluten free or even skimping on it.

The patient is asymptomatic, and duodenal biopsies—taken while on a normal gluten-containing diet—were reported as normal. Given the discordant serology and absence of histological changes, I understand that the probability of coeliac disease is low. However, I would appreciate your guidance on the following: Is routine follow-up required in such a case? What is the risk of progression to overt coeliac disease in the future? Would HLA DQ2/DQ8 typing be useful here to help guide long-term management or exclude the diagnosis confidently? I would be grateful for your thoughts.
