Gluten In Lipstick

[Guest MDBookie]

Have any of you ladies had problems with lipstick? I have yet to find one that the manufacturers will say is gluten-free. The long-lasting ones will, more than likely, contain gluten. Please let me know if any of you have researed this.

Thanks,

Pat

check out Mary Kay... I was at a local support group last year and a Mary Kay saleswoman was there to let us know they offered gluten-free products. Mary Kay manufactures all their own products and will guarantee them. My saleswoman researched all ingredients and put together a list of products I can and cannot use. I have bought two lipsticks from her and they work great!

I did much research and, although it is pricey, Lancome has a line that is gluten-free and I've been using it for 2 months very happily. Their line is "Rouge Absolu" and it wears very well. It is, I think, about $20. (Yikes!) Also, Burt's Bees makes a lipstick but it was too pepperminty for me and doesn't wear well. Good luck!

After many irritable e-mails, I finally got an answer from Cover Girl that their Outlast lipstick is gluten-free. It doesn't contain fragrance-- that's where lots of the uncertainty lies since they outsource the fragrances & "can't determine" their gluten-free status. God knows they could if they wanted to! But in any case Outlast is safe.

I really like smashbox creamy gloss (has a reddish tint-super creamy) called smashing solar and a top gloss (looks irridessent (sp) called Mood (it's sandy color). Love both-my favorites ...LL
