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.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
