gluten-free sunscreen that is matte? (Canadian resident)


NoGlutensToday

Hi folks,

I'm looking for a sunscreen to apply to my face. Besides being gluten free it needs to be matte -- I'm going to wear this on a daily basis to work and don't want to be shiny. 

I live in Canada, so that might cut down on my options. 

Any suggestions based on your experiences? Thanks!

(FYI I know celiacs only have to worry about ingesting gluten and that it doesn't absorb through the skin, but with the hot summer coming I don't want to worry about sweating and having a sunscreen with gluten in it getting into my mouth, etc.)

Can you get Cerave am?  It’s only 30 spf- so it’s just a daily not a play in the sun kind.

Yes, Cerave AM is available in Canada. Do you find it has a matte finish?

its  meant to be put on for the day  and is good under makeup.  I find it soaks in a fter a minute and it is not shiny.  Its lotion - not a makeup, so "matte" isn't really what it is.  there are makeups that have sunscreen and a matte finish.  You could give it a try.  If you don't like it on your face, use it on your hands and arms.

      Thank you. I already cut out dairy and eggs because I found out I was having a problem with them. To be honest I’m just getting worn out 😂

      Hi Kitty, thank you for your e mail,  I have seen a nutritionist who seemed to be happy with the food diary I had been keeping and nothing was mentioned about extra vitamins, and I’m still using milk etc . The steroids seem to be working and everything is functioning as it should however,  the course of tablets finish at the end of February and I have an appointment with the consultant early April probably followed by another endoscopy, as far as I’m aware I have not been tested for vitamin B and will definitely discuss it with the doctor on my next visit.

      It might be understandable to say "friends or family weeded me or you out of their lives". Some people are fearful of getting out of their comfortable known lives and having to make changes to accommodate another.   If they are too uncomfortable to walk a mile with me, I shake the dust off my feet and journey on.  They're just not ready to learn that lesson.  But you confidently keep going on your journey.  They can catch up later.

      You might also be sensitive to other things while you are healing. Dairy, for example. It won't harm you from a celiac standpoint but is inflammatory and could be bothering you. Have you been keeping a food & symptom journal? Might be worth it for a week to see if you notice something you are eating prior to the times you feel your worst. I hope you start feeling better soon.

      Someone recently recommended Superfoods for looking up recipes free of allergens or intolerances.  It's a web site but there's also an app.
