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.

Sincerely,

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!

      Hypothetical question about antibodies

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      No, I would not say this at all. If you were diagnosed with celiac disease and were gluten-free for a while, you could have gone into remission. Everyone's body is different, and some celiacs may be able to get regular contamination and not end up with damaged villi and positive antibody tests, while others who ingest tiny amounts will relapse and have full blown symptoms and flattened villi.  Only a full gluten challenge would reveal where you are at this point. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

      Is it common to develop a wheat allergy in addition to Celiac Disease?

      Great  post. The skin issue can be intolerable. I have been taking niacinamide for the past month and have improved with respect to the blistering lesions.

      I've found taking Niacin Vitamin B 3 in the form that causes flushing (nicotinic acid) helps immensely to clear my skin.  The flushing is harmless and goes away the longer Niacin is taken.  The flushing (vasodilation in the skin) helps the body get rid of the tTg 3 IgA antibodies that cause the blisters.  TTg 2 IgA antibodies are found in the blood and are measured in diagnostic testing for Celiac.  People with Dermatitis Herpetiformis make tTg 3 as well as tTg 2 antibodies.  Niacin Vitamin B3 in the non flushing form niacinamide also works without the flushing, but takes a bit longer.   I also avoid foods containing high levels of iodine because iodine activates the tTg 3 IgA antibodies to become more active and make more blisters.  I avoid kelp (nori, seaweed) and crustaceans,  eggs, dairy products, and iodized table salt.   Niacinamide and Nicotinic acid are water soluble and harmless.  I'd much rather take Niacin than Dapsone with scary side effects.

      We have a gluten-free household. It's the least stressful option. No one else in my family has Celiac, but they are all extremely supportive. We don't even have Play-doh for this kids.
