I'v e been going back and forth everyday and thought if we have a "favorite" product we could share what it is. I'm new and going shopping. If someone has a favorite blush, any make-up, skin care,shampoo, conditioner, vitamin, etc It would be so helpful and much simplier. There are tons of products out there, so between the brain frog from being gluttened and the choices it would be so helpful! Thanks LindaLee p.s. I'll learn how to put an icon on eventually.

I use Emenince face cleanser/moisturizer and Bare Minerals and glo Minerals Make-up. Emenince is not all gluten-free though. You have to read the label. But it is all natural, organic ingredients, so if there is gluten in there at all, it will be on the label. I have also read posts from others who have said that Bare Minerals cleansers and stuff are not gluten-free, but I don't use those, just the make-up. And I really like both!

I use Alterna Caviar Shampoo and Conditioner. The hairspray is not gluten-free.

I use Estee Lauder Equalizer foundation, and their lip pencils and eye pencils.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head ...

Ah! I love Mary Kay. I used to sell it (and I am still a consultant, but I don't use a lot of their stuff anymore). I like the Bare Mineral foundation much more than the MK foundation. And their nail polish has gluten in it, by the way. One of the mascara's did too, but they phased that one out, so if yours is less than 3 months old, then you shouldn't have on of the ones that had wheat protien in it. Anyway, cool!

Is Emenince something to get at the health food store? Is the glo minerals from bare minerals? Alot of people seem to like bare essentials they call it - I think its the same

Actually, I get Eminence from my local spa (where my aesthetician was the one who noticed a difference in my skin when I went gluten-free) and she suggested an organic brand. She found this stuff for me, and liked it so much, that she started selling it there! They have a website too, double-u double-u double-u dot eminenceorganics dot com. (I was spelling it wrong earlier, it is e-m-i-n-e-n-c-e). And I think Bare Essentials is the company name, and Bare Minerals is the name of the make-up. glo Minerals is a different mineral make-up company all their own. It is a little more expensive, but they have some things that Bare Minerals don't have, like a pressed powder mineral compact.

We like the shampoo bar from BeanTree because it is just olive oil with no added worries (of course, lye to make it soap! LOL)

I like the aubrey organics line of products. They are very skin safe.

I use their sunblocks and I also use Alba sunblocks.

I use Aubrey's silk transculent powder for face.

Homemade lip gloss/balm is easy to make, and we do that at home.

They have 3 different kinds, they have the regular clear one, then they have one with gold flecks and one with silver I think. The ones with flecks are venom flash.

The lip venom (regular) is great, too!

It's safe. I found it on here somewhere where someone called them. Either way, no reaction :)

I'll be honest, I'm not very careful about makeup or skincare but so far have had no problems. I use a face lotion that I love but it's not a name brand you can buy. It's manufacture by one of the companies that makes the makeup for the larger brands but I think only smaller private labels use it.

Right now I am using a Giorgio Armani foundation, Clinique concealer, Nars and Fresh Blush, Laura Mercier Bronzer and Mac Lipsticks. The only one I checked out is the lipsticks and are confirmed gluten-free. The others must be fine because I have no problems.

For shampoo I'm currently using John Frieda highlighting shampoo, Finesse conditioner and some frizz taming thing from Biolage.

But I kinda just use whatever I get from the beauty sales at work. I rarely ever buy makeup or hair products.

Oh, one thing I do buy is this awesome chapstick. I don't think you can get it in the US. I had a tube that a friend gave me to try after a trip in Europe, and last time DH went to Canada for business he brought me back a ton. It's called Lobello. It's the best Chapstick ever!! (And it's cheap).

I'm using Laura Mercier concealer and Nars lipstick, blush and bronzer -- both brands are completely gluten-free, according to the calls I made.

I swap between a Lorac lip polish and a Delux lipgloss over my chapstick.

I've been swapping between Aveda Sap Moss shampoo (gluten-free -- the conditioner isn't) and Dove -- using the Dove conditioner most of the time.

Thank you! I'm going to order the clear (QVC carries it). My lips are looking older than I do :ph34r:

Just a warning: it stings for a few minutes after you put it on! It's not bad though, just spicy, and the effects are worth it ;)

Oh, and warn your husband before you kiss him! He might not enjoy that much...men aren't into the pain is beauty thing :P

I use coconut oil for lots of stuff - eye make-up remover, moisterizer, eye cream etc. etc.

Coconut oil is also good in the kitchen! I especially like it on air popped popcorn ... half butter, half coconut oil, with some sea salt and Bragg's Liquid Aminos! It's a natural cure for candida.

I've also used it after the shower while I'm still wet as a moisturizer (not the same jar as is used in the kitchen :blink: )

I pop popcorn with it too (separate jar in the kitchen of course :D ).

It is amazing as a moisturizer though!

I also have to sing the praises of popcorn popped old fashion style with coconut oil. UMMMMM!!

It's good to know I can use it as a mousturizer, the ever all-purpose coconut oil :)

And, it's a misconception that coconut oil is bad for you!! It's only the processed, hydrogenated, garbage that is bad. Some saturated fat is good for you and this is one of them! Of course, that's as hard to explain to people as celiac disease is! :P

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
