Hi everyone! I need a gluten-free mosturizer for my face, that provides SPF protection and does sunless tanning. Olay won't give me a straight answer on thier "touch of Sun" products, Neutrogena's product is for the body, way to harsh for my face. Clinique is still testing theirs and Estee Lauder is also.

anyone have any more suggestions?

A product by malibu - Hemp Golden Glow. I talked to the chemist there and he assured me that it was gluten-free. You can get it at walmat. I can't use products that change my skin, it seems to give me a funny taste in my mouth. ( I am NOT tasting it, just sometimes when I have different lotions on I get a metal taste in my mouth) But this product seems to work well, my daughter has used it for a couple of weeks. It doesn't have spf though, sorry. I think you will find most don't. I use not-so-basic skin care by *ar-bonne, gluten-free - it is wonderful, but it does not change the skin color. They do have a self-tanner, but that is NOT gluten-free - so I don't recommend that.

Hope this helps

I was hoping to find a 2 in 1, but I will check both those out if I can't get the 2 in 1. Adding more steps to my morning is a bad thing :(

Dove makes a facial moisturizer that has self-tanners in it. I'm not sure if it has SPF too or not. I've never actually used it but thought about it. Also, since I haven't actually bought it, just read it to make sure it's gluten-free, as Dove doesn't hide gluten.

If you are still looking, there is a pretty obscure one that I love. It is called sircuit soliel by Sircuit Skin. It is a fancy, spa-grade natural company that I learned of on EWG's SkinDeep site.

I created a website naming my fav natural products about a year ago and scoured the market for the best and most natural products. Now I am revamping the site to address food allergy (and celiac) needs, and I think this one still passes the test. Once I have verified with the company I will let you know.

p.s. it IS very pricey, but I swear, I run out and then buy five different cheap ones trying to replace it and all are total flops in comparison. Plus it lasts longer than you think--though I would recommend putting it on when you have a day to spend at home, it works quickly but is quite bronzy while on the skin.

      @Zuma888, The antibodies produced in response to gluten are made in the intestines.  When the body is provoked sufficiently, the antibodies overflow out of the intestines and into the blood stream.  Once in the blood stream, the antibodies can be measured with tTg IgA tests.  Three grams of gluten per day for two weeks minimum is enough gluten to make you feel the symptoms of having been glutened, but the antibodies are not in sufficient quantity to be measured in the blood. Ten grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks is required to get the anti gluten antibodies at a high enough level in the blood stream to be measured by tTg IgA tests. So, no, occasional cross contamination or (heaven forbid) intentional cheat days will not be sufficient for tTg IgA testing.  You will still be making antibodies which will still be causing inflammation and damage to the intestines and body.  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten.  High histamine levels lead to food sensitivities, brain fog, and body aches.   The damage done to the gastrointestinal tract affects the absorption of essential vitamins and minerals.  Malabsorption of fats can cause changes in stools.  Insufficient absorption of vitamins and minerals can cause damage to other organs like the thyroid if it can't get enough Selenium, iodine, iron, zinc, and Thiamine.  Brain fog and fatigue can be caused by low Thiamine and other B Complex vitamins.  Vitamin D is needed to regulate the immune system.  One gene is all that's needed to develop Celiac disease.  I know a Celiac diagnosis is a change that can be difficult to get your head around.  Many people go through the five stages of grief.  One stage is "bargaining".  Sounds like you're stuck there.  Every little cheat counts to your detriment.  But sticking to a gluten free diet, makes every meal a success.   Read the comments below the article... Best wishes!  Keep us posted on your progress!

      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:

      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.

      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.
