Anyone Know Of False Eyelashes That Are Safe?

I wear contacts. I know adhesives from false lashes can contain gluten. I was wondering if anyone knows of a kind that is widely available that is safe for Celiacs. Mascara (even waterproof) would be nice. I just think using false lashes would be safer. If you get that stuff in your eye, you are going to hurt! :blink: Thanks.

I don't know about a gluten free eye lash glue, never thought about it actually. But I have worn them with no problem on special occasions. They tend to be very itchy. You have to get used to them. My friend who doesnt have any issues has said the same thing.

I know the dept store mascarras tend to be safer. I know there is people on her who have contacted them. I'm sure someone will let ya know which ones are safe.

Dear NoGluGirl,

I had asked the Celiac specialist at my daughters' GI's office. She said any makeup, soap, shampoo etc., was ok as long as you DO NOT HAVE DH. Hope this helps :) . Talk soon. Feel good.

Dear Lynn,

I have acne that itches and burns, and eczema. Those are not the same as DH though, are they? I think that is a different thing altogether. My skin tends to be sensitive. I had worn false lashes before with no trouble. I just wanted to be extra careful! Thanks!

Dear Lynn,

I see my doctor Tuesday. I am going to ask her. I have had back acne and it is also on my shoulders, under my neck, on my ear, on my nape, and it really bothers me! It seems some things help, but it still tends to itch and burn. Sure, I will e-mail you soon!

      Are Gluten-Free Processed Foods Making You Sick? (+Video)

      Thank you! It’s very easy to make seedy crackers. They are much more nutritious than commercial gluten free bread,

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve. thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poo...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies. Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree. Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant. That may happen even with endoscopy. Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end...

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1. Genetic testing. Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With...

      here are the lab ranges. Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.

      Just diagnosed today

      By JoJo0611 · Posted

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about it? Has anyone else got both of these.
