Hi - I just joined and was wondering if anyone has a favorite gluten-free lipstick. I was diagnosed with celiac disease when I was 15 months and thought I outgrew it. After a stressful event and becoming ill, I am now gradually getting my strengh back and are learning what not to eat or put on or in my body. The vitamins I was taking said they contained gluten. I had a bad rash on my stomach for about 4 months that has finally gone away but still itches sometimes. I'm looking forward to learning from you. Thanks, LindaLee

I just bought a new one last night, I triple checked the ingredients, it's L'oreal Endless Kissable.

It comes in some great colors, it's stayed on all day, didn't dry my lips out, and it's less than $6, I got it at the Walgreens. ;)

Neutrogena Moistureshine Lip Gloss is gluten-free, and comes in a lot of nice colors! :)

Thanks so much! I'll get some. How do you I know what ingrddients to avoid? I use lip liner and vaseline now. Do you know of a liner? Any product info would be greatly appreciated. I am just starting this process. I've thrown out alot of pantry items, spices , and am working on anything to get rid of this fatigue and itching. Thanks !!!

I use Mary Kay Liner.

I found a list somewhere of forbidden ingredients for makeup, but I don't remember where. I just look for stuff I can't have, most of the time the company will know what their gluten free products are, I called L'oreal and asked since they carried my shade of lipstick and this is one of the kinds that was gluten free. I look for things like wheat, wheat germ, and stuff. I also let hubby check it and he googles every ingredient (yeah, he takes a while to do it) and see's what they are.

There is a great list of forbidden ingredients on this site, you go to www.celiac.com and search forbidden ingredients and it's in the search results.

does anyone know if clinique lipstick and line are gluten-free? I"ve contacted the company but have not gotten a response (it's been 3 days now)....

Also, covergirl face powder (which is what I use) DOES have wheat in it - is this still ok since it doesn't go in the mouth (or near it)? I have a brand new one (unopened, that's how I know it has wheat in it b/c the box has the ingredients on it).

      I  notice a reaction to tea bags, possibly due to gluten or other substances. Is this recognizable?

      The blood tests you had done are not the main ones. The two main ones are the "Total IGA" (to check for IGA deficiency) and the "TTG-IGA". Current guidelines for the "gluten challenge" when people have been gluten free for a significant time period are the daily consumption of at least10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks leading up to the day of the blood draw. That should give you some perspective.

      Thank you, really.  I took a test for DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG. Effectively, it is not enough to discard Celiac Disease. I was consuming gluten until then, I only started gluten-free some days ago, when the symptoms became horrible and now I feel considerably better, which is a second confirmation that gluten is the main problem. It's been more than 4 years I have the same suspect, when I first thought gluten was causing me problems, I made a gluten-free diet for a year, I felt really good as never before. However, neither I or my parents were well informed about Celiac disease, so none of us tried to make further exams. My father suffer digestive problems and other members of my family as well. Unfortunately, no one have ever been tested for Celiac disease. I'll have to restart eating gluten in the next weeks, so I can make a serious blood test in laboratory, hopefully between two or three months.

      As Scott said, in order for celiac disease testing to be valid, you need to be eating generous amounts of gluten on a regular basis for weeks or months before the blood draw. The blood tests are designed to detect antibodies that the immune system produces in response to the ingestion of gluten. It takes time for them to build up in the blood to detectable levels.

      Based on what you've described, it is absolutely crucial that you pursue further medical exams for Celiac Disease and related conditions with a gastroenterologist. Your symptoms—especially the worsening fatigue, loss of muscle mass, neurological symptoms like migraines, and palpitations, coupled with being underweight—are significant red flags that extend beyond typical IBS. The negative home test is not reliable, particularly given your concern about sample contamination and the fact that you were likely not consuming sufficient gluten at the time for the test to be accurate, which is a common issue. While probiotics like Bifidobacterium Infantis can support gut health, they cannot resolve an autoimmune response to gluten or heal intestinal damage caused by Celiac Disease. Your declining blood test results, even if still "in range," further indicate a trend that needs a doctor's investigation. Please do not hesitate to seek a specialist; a formal diagnosis is the first step toward getting the correct treatment, allowing your body to heal, and finally addressing your weight and overall health concerns. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
