Lip Smackers Or Other Chapstick

Does anyone know which brands of lip smackers or chapstick are gluten free? I'm looking for something with a very pale color or no color at all - it's for a child. Thanks.

I use Badger's lip balm. I find it health food stores, or at Whole Foods. I love it--it's very natural, and it doesn't have any color. I've also verified it to be gluten-free.

I have heard her that Lip Smackers have wheat germ oil in them but I have not verified that myself.

Burt's Beeswax makes some sparkly, colored lip balm that is gluten-free.

I also use Badger Balm. It comes either in a stick or a pot. They have some nice flavors, too. Cinnamon, lemon/ginger and a couple of others.

I called them and they told me they use no gluten there whatsoever.

I believe regular Chapstick is gluten free, as is Blistex. I generally use Bert's Bees Peppermint lip balm, myself.

I also use Burts Bees. Just their plain beeswax lip balm in the tube. Even before going gluten free I got hooked on this kind the first time I used it and nothing seems to work as well for me.

some of the chapstick flavors do contain gluten and some do not, I recommend calling the company and verifying for yourself. Personally I use Burt's Bees but mymom got my daughter one of the Disney Chapsticks and I did verify that flavor was gluten-free but I don't remember the other flavors that were.

I have been using Kiss My Face. The ingredients seem ok. Does anyone know if it is definitley gluten free?

Lip Rescue with Shea Butter, made by Desert Essence is really good. I have not called the company, but all ingredients look ok. I had a terrible time a few months ago with really, really, dry lips that nothing helped - until I tried this. I bought it at my local health food store and it is also available online.

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
