What Lipstick Do You Use?

So far two companies have told me they have some gluten-free lipsticks - Lumene and Neutrogena. I have 6 from Lumene and two from Nertrogena. I have to mix several together to get the color I want. I think Bare Essentials and Bare Minerals have some gluten-free lipsticks (but not all) but does anyone know of some other cheap (drugstore brands) that you found out were gluten free? My Mother told me today she'd neglected to get new lipstick after being gluten-free for a week. I know none of Lumenes colors are dark enough for her and she can find hardly Neutrogena ones in stock anywhere in her town.

If you don't know of cheap brands, then tell me about any department store brands that you know are gluten free. We need all the help we can get.

Vincnet - you are sooooooooo funny! We are total girlie girls (okay at 42 and 63 I guess we can't pass for girls anymore) and proud of it so we unlike you mister....can not do without lipstick. Still looking for answers other than Lumene or Neutrogena if you don't mind.

Sorry Tiffany--I use Neutrogena Lip Gloss. To tell you the truth, I don't know about any of the others except the Bare Escentuals. The lipstick situation is confusing to me, so I stick with what I know :blink:

I use mostly MAC. I checked the colors I use and they are all fine. Sometimes I forget about the lipstick thing and I'll grab a new color I like and then realize I need to check it out. But so far I haven't had any problems with makeup.

Are most Mac lipsticks gluten free?? I have used Clinique, but am wondering if what i am using is gluten free. It is frustrating, because their are SO many names of lipsticks that it gets really confusing about even trying to figure it all out. I have really not warn any recently. I did buy some Burt's Bee's, but don't care for the colors I bought. It was a waste of my money.

The RARE times I wear lipcolor of any kind, it's Clinique lip gloss (I checked).

...usually I just wear carmex. I do all of my other makeup, just not lips...

Thanks everyone....surely some others will post but if not, I'll give MAC a try and maybe BE too. I'll call about one shade of each of those lines and see if I prefer one brand over the other. I liked Revlon, through that all out when they told me they didn't know what was in their make-up and then I kept some Coverl Girl until P&G retards sent me that idiotic note asking me to have my doctor send a letter about each and every product and shade. Those P&G people must be embarrassed by that blanket CYA statement they throw at everyone. So far I've gotten rid or most everything I had in my house from P&G excpet my Tide free which is the only detergent I'm not irritated by. Money talks so maybe when their sales dip they'll start caring more about the of all the gluten-free consumers...after all, there's another one every day it seems.

What is carmex anyway ChelsE?

I use Burt's Bees lip balm (colored) and also their lipstick. I find the lipstick dry but wuite long lasting. I usually put a little of the lipbalm on first and then the lipstick. I have dry skin so I use the lip balm a lot.

It's good ole fashioned lip balm, I like it because it's impossible to have chapped lips with it and it leaves a little shine...and it's cheap and gluten-free!

I was told by the Celiac Center in New York that Bobbie Brown lipsticks are gluten-free. That's what I've been using.

For liner I use either Stripdown or Spice. The lipstick I use is Xpose and then for gloss I use their Lipglass. I can't remember the name of the color but the rep on the phone said all lipglass is fine.

To be honest, I don't pay for most of my makeup, or if I do pay, it's very little. One of the perks of where I work. So far I haven't had any problems with anything, but I usually take stuff and then check it out.

I've said this before, but just so you ladies know, most of these brands are all manufactured by the same 2 companies. Ofcourse color blends and ingredients are specified to the name brand companies request but I don't know that there is really that much variation.

Note that MAC's amplified cream lipsticks have wheat in them, and their lip conditioner.

I used to use a host of brands, but now I only use Bare Escentuals. All their lipsticks (and makeup) are gluten-free and 'natural.' I like their lipstick--goes on smooth and is moisturizing. You can buy it on QVC or Sephora.

Well I had read somewhere about Loreal having some gluten-free lipsticks so I called them today. The woman was really really rude but told me that their Endless kissable, Endless 8-hour and Colour Riche Gold lipsticks are gluten free. She mentioned some glossed that have gluten but I have nutrogena glosses already so I ignored that part.

Sorry I forgot to say what the woman said was gluten-free for the Loreal l/s

colour riche gold (gold is not a color, just type)

moisturizin 8-hour

endless kissable l/s (think EK gloss has gluten)

I'm a professional communicator and I am absolutely outraged when I read that customer help folks are rude! I can't believe this. For us, our health is at stake if we use the wrong products.

My biggest frustration is products with no ingredient labels, which send me to the website, only to find glossy fancy ads and no ingredients. :(

Enough to drive you nuts. I thought the customer was always right.

He's so silly. I've never had a problem with L'Oreal lipsticks or glosses.

Well I wanted to report that despite the one rude woman at L'Oreal, I called back and got a human. She cofirmed what the other rep. said but with the rudeness, I was worried I had not written everything down correctly. Walgreen's has the L'Oreal Colour Riche l/s on sale for $1 off this week. That made is $6.99 ea. so I got three tubes. I remembered when I saw it that I liked it from a while back when I tried it. Yea! finally a low price good lipstick that stays on!

I ue Clinique lipgloss like 50 times a day,

hey i'm 15!

But for shows, I used to just lick my lips a lot and make them chapped then put carmex on, so it would look like I was wearing lipstick, but would get away w/o it.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Burt's Bees lip shimmers and they just came out with new colors. Gluten-free and they taste like peppermint!

      Covid caused reoccurrence of DH without eating gluten

      By Jacki Espo · Posted

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      My only proof

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
