Gluten Free Lipsticks

Ive been on a mission to find out what lipsticks are gluten free as I am an avid lipstick fanatic. I recently read about Avon, Lancome, OPI, and bennefit being gluten free. Can anyone add to this list? I know that the Burts Bees lip shimmers are gluten-free. I happen to love Rimmel, does anyone know about this one? Or others?

Please share.

Hi Steph

NARS says all thier lipsticks and glosses are gluten free but they are kind of expensive. also if you call MAC most of their lipsticks are gluten free- they will tell you over the phone which ones are.

I used to love expensive lipsticks until I had to buy this for my daughter's dance competitions. I don't like the gloss it comes with, but you can use any other gluten-free lip gloss instead.

CoverGirl and Bare Escentuals...some Maybelline I have heard is ok. The Delphi list has some information about lipsticks. It is a bit older but it still works as a good guideline

As I said in the other thread, most Neutrogena lip products are gluten-free.

All Smashbox Cosmetics are gluten-free.

All Ecco Bella *cosmetics* are gluten-free. (Some of their other products contain gluten)

I was told by the company (via email) that all Bare Escentual Lip Products are gluten-free, but I would still check on individual products. I've heard of people getting differing answers from them.

Some of cliniques are!

Garden Botanika lipsticks are. The customer service rep. confirmed it. She checked every ingredient and made sure it wasn't made from any form of gluten. It took her a month to confirm that the lipstick was gluten free, but everytime she found out an ingredient was gluten free she would email me and let me know. Anyone who goes through this much trouble, deserves my business.

I tend to mostly use MAC lipsticks.

I also love Fresh - Sugar Lip Balm. Actually I love all of Fresh's skincare. The Sugar Face Polish is heaven; and the Umbrian Face Clay is awesome! I could keep going, LOL!! I love their stuff.

There's also a company called 'Arbon' or 'Lame Advertisement' or something like that...

all their makeup is gluten-free!

I'm new to this forum and I'm looking for any info I can get on cosmetics. Being in my 40's I've become more interested in finding really good quality cosmetics - and I've become really careful about only using gluten-free cosmetics (or trying to!). I know only gluten that is ingested is supposed to be of concern (and that was the exact answer I received from Cover Girl when I wrote asking about their cosmetics), but after happily using a new foundation (light, good coverage, nice tone) I started getting new break-outs, itchy-watery eyes, headaches, and worst of all, a nerve twitch underneath my right eye (eliminated use of product = symptoms went away). Now I err on the side of caution, rather than take the chance. Any cosmetic / hygiene product information anyone has gathered for sharing is most appreciated. I now rely a lot on Bare Escentuals because I heard they were gluten-free but would love to be able to use a couple of my old standbys. (aveda volumizing spray? Salon Grafix hair spray? Maybelline mascara?)

Hi and welcome! :)

I know that Maybelline Mascara has wheat germ oil in it :angry: Sorry, I don't know about the other 2 products.

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!

      good luck! vital wheat gluten made me violently ill. I will touch the stuff ever again.  
    • catnapt
      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding.   I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th   I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose   they are going to have to come up with a test that doesn't require it.

      What Thiamine Hydrochloride brand do you take? Is it like the other vitamins I have added? What brand Tryptophan and amount do you take. Thanks
