Ok, so I am just vain enough that I need to fancy up occasionally.  I have been a Mary Kay customer for years, and they're not gluten free.  

So, I need all the recommendations.  What products have you loved? Hated?   I'm especially interested in concealers. eyeliner, mascara, lip stain, clear lip liner, eyeshadow, and face powder. Also, face and eye creams/serums.  

Thank you!

I may not be the most qualified person to answer, but we had a site sponsor a while back called Epilynx, and we did a ton of product reviews which you can see in this category:

https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-food-reviews/ 

They make a line of GF cosmetics, lotions, serums, makeup, etc.

There are a few good lines of gluten free makeup. Epilynx is good, and I have used it; also Tarte and Pur Minerals.

Gabriel Cosmetics and ZuZu Luxe have certified products.  I use them regularly.

 

https://gabrielcosmeticsinc.com/

On their FAQ page:  Are your products Gluten-Free*?

Gabriel, Zuzu Luxe and Clean Kids Naturally have been certified gluten-free by the Gluten Intolerance Group. According to GFCO’s website their certification seal, “stands for the independent verification of quality, integrity, and purity of products. Products carrying the gluten-free logo represents unmatched reliability and for meeting strict gluten-free standards. GFCO is the leading gluten-free certification program in the world.” Gabriel Organics Skincare and Gabriel nail polishes are gluten-free they are not certified.

Skincare line I use is Alastin. The eye cream and moisturizer are great. All products really. I use them all and have no issues. Can get them online at Alastin.com  They have a great sunscreen/ tinted daily that is a great makeup base as well. It has a nice natural matte finish.

Sunscreen daily I use Elta. They have a plain and a tinted. I’ve used both. Works great as makeup base. 

Blush I use is Chantecaille cheek shade - tell the counter person that you are gluten-free. 

I use some Sisley Paris products as well- seem to be clean. Again, mention gluten-free to the counter person and they’ll go over ingredients with you. 
 

I shy away from anything that says it’s completely organic. They sometimes use barley as a later ingredient instead of gluten. Or oats.
Even though they aren’t ‘technically’ wheat according to the industry, both of those things cause a reaction in my skin.

I have not found my favorite make-up yet (don't even wear any anymore with Covid). But as far as face and eye creams and serums, I love to go all pure and natural - and not just the kind that marketing says is clean and natural. I use MIG for all of my soaps, lotions, serums, health balms and nutritionals. It is all 100% pure, toxin-free using the highest quality ingredients. The has even gotten rid of those nasty bumps on my daughter's upper arms. This is the website I use: https://migliving.com/. It is what it says it is!!

Hello! Thank you so much for asking! We have a very simple process. I wash, tone if I want, and do serum and/or facial lotion bar at night. The best part is the process is results proven, but you don't need to buy several different products. Our products are formulated from 100% pure, plant based products that work, so you don't need separate day, eye or night creams. I would be happy to share some real life testimonials if would like!

I am extremely sensitive to products and I use Derma-e. They have a really great skincare line. I’ve tried most of it and I have had no reactions. Make up is a whole different story. I’m on here looking for a good gluten free mascara because my eyes are killing me right now! Lol. Good luck on your search. I do use mineral fusion products and they are pretty good. No reactions except to their mascara. Hope this helps ♥️

For skincare, I use Alastin products, including their eye cream and moisturizer, which are fantastic. Their tinted sunscreen doubles as a great makeup base with a natural matte finish. I also use Elta sunscreen daily both plain and tinted. For blush, Chantecaille’s cheek shade is my favorite just let the counter person know you’re gluten free. I also like some Sisley Paris products again  mention your gluten free needs. I avoid completely organic products because barley or oats can cause reactions for me. I recently picked up some Alastin products from GMA, and they’ve been working really well!

      Working in a kitchen with gluten?

      Hi yes! I was diagnosed 10 years ago through a biopsy. I’ve been gluten free ever since but no one I’m around is gluten free. I sometimes wore a surgical mask in the kitchen. but I believe particles were still getting through. I’ll definitely look into n95 instead. thanks for the reply.

      Ya I used to react to iodine, but it doesn't bother me anymore after strict adherence to a gluten-free diet for many years now. I am happy to report that for the first time ever in my life, a probiotic formula is not making me break out, but actually seems to be helping.

      Feeling ill

      @Whyz, I take a combination of Thiamin (Benfotiamin), B12 Cobalamine and Pyridoxine B6 for my pain and headaches. Really works well without hurting the digestive tract. Riboflavin B2 also helps with migraines. Most newly diagnosed people have vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Check with your doctor and nutritionist. If you follow the updated...

      Advantages vs. Disadvantages of having an official Celiac diagnosis

      I don't believe that existing life insurance policies require such notifications--health checks are typically done before such policies are obtained. I believe it would primarily affect any new policy you get, and perhaps any policy renewal.

      You could go gluten-free now, and then start eating lots of gluten for at least 2 weeks before your endoscopy--just be sure to tell your doctor about this beforehand. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it is further evidence of celiac disease and/or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity...

      @Whyz, I take a combination of Thiamin (Benfotiamin), B12 Cobalamine and Pyridoxine B6 for my pain and headaches.  Really works well without hurting the digestive tract.  Riboflavin B2 also helps with migraines.  Most newly diagnosed people have vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  Check with your doctor and nutritionist.   If you follow the updated gluten challenge guidelines, you can wait until two weeks (minimum) before your appointment, then eat lots of gluten, like six slices of gluten containing bread or "name your poison".   Here's the Updated Gluten Challenge Guidelines: Recommended intake of gluten should be increased to 10 grams of gluten per day for at least two weeks. Or longer. While three grams of gluten will begin the immune response, ten grams of gluten is needed to get antibody levels up to where they can be measured in antibody tests and changes can be seen in the small intestine.   Keep in mind that there are different amounts of gluten in different kinds of bread and gluten containing foods.  Pizza crust and breads that are thick and chewy contain more gluten than things like cake and cookies.   References: https://www.beyondceliac.org/celiac-disease/the-gluten-challenge/ And... Evaluating Responses to Gluten Challenge: A Randomized, Double-Blind, 2-Dose Gluten Challenge Trial https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7878429/?report=reader  "In our study, limited changes in Vh:celiac disease (villi height vs crypt depth - aka damage to the small intestine)  following 14-day challenge with 3 g of gluten were observed, in accordance with Sarna et al.  While the 3 g dose was sufficient to initiate an immune response, as detected by several biomarkers such as IL-2, the 10 g dose was required for enteropathy within the study time frame. Based on our data, we would suggest that gluten challenge should be conducted over longer durations and/or using doses of gluten of ≥ 3 g/day to ensure sufficient histological change can be induced." Keep us posted on your progress!

If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it is further evidence of celiac disease and/or non-celiac gluten sensitivity.  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
