Gluten Free And Wheat Free Facial Care?

[Robina]

I've done some searches on here and found some products that people say are gluten free... are they also wheat free? What do you guys use?

I use Zia--the Moisturizing Cleanser and the Ultimate Night Renewal. Those are gluten-free, but not all of their products are.

All of Nars cosmetics facial care products are gluten-free, which is the brand of cosmetics I use, but for facial care, I use Neutrogena--they will send you a list of their gluten-free stuff, but they also clearly label, and I find most of their stuff to be gluten-free.

Dove also clearly labels wheat, oats, barley, and rye, and some of their facial products are gluten-free, too.

put in neutrogena into the search function on this board. just a few weeks ago i posted a really long safe list from neutrogena. i love their stuff.

Robina, if something says gluten-free, it must, by default, be wheat free as well. Because if it contained wheat, it wouldn't be gluten-free.

AmandaD - Thanks for posting that. I just went and looked it up. It is a really long list, which is great. Lots of great products to choose from.

Thanks for that... I'm so new at this I have no idea what to think... the reason I asked is because in comparing the wheat free and gluten free shopping lists at the Whole Foods site... I noticed some of the wheat free items were not on the gluten free list and vice versa...

Yes, I agree that it can be confusing. If it says wheat free, it isn't necessarily gluten-free, but if it says gluten-free, it must be wheat free as well.
