Gluten-free Lipstick

I received assurance from Maybelline that Shiny-Lucious, Moisture Extreem, Superstay Lipcolor and Shine Seduction lipstick ARE gluten-free. I also received the same assurance from Estee Lauder that their lipsticks are gluten free. Has anyone else contacted these or other lipstick manufacturers?

I started a similar topic: Open Original Shared Link

Did you mean "shiny-licious" and is it the lip gloss in the tube, cause I think I have that one laying around from before I was dx'd and I didn't know about using it.

Have you had success using any of those maybelline lip colors?

This was Maybelline's reply:

Thank you for your interest in Shiny-Licious, Moisture Extreme, Superstay Lipcolor, and Shine Seduction.

Ok i have emailed Maybelline and havent had a responce yet. I dont know which ones I am using. I just know that they are in a twist tube and the number of the color.. I also need to know about Revalon lipsticks, Victoria Secret Lip gloss and loreal. If anyone has this info thanks for your help. I also have been using maybelline age rewind liquid foundation. I put it on my lips to ensure my lip color stays on longer, and I hope I am not making myself sick from doing this..

I recently ordered some lipstick from Afterglow after seeing advertisement on the forum. It's really wonderful. A little pricey, but totally gluten-free and no chemicals. It's worth the price. I can't wait to try some other shades. If you're not sure what shade to order you can talk to consultant on line. Nice company to deal with.

Afterglow states : "Are your gluten free cosmetics made in a gluten free facility? Our gluten free cosmetics are made in a facility that makes other non gluten free cosmetics."

Anyone sensitive should be aware that this brand is not totally gluten-free, just technically gluten free.

I am still looking for just one single totally gluten-free cosmetics line.

Lancome's line Le Rouge Absolu is gluten-free. I'm highly sensitive to gluten and have worn their lipstick every day for over two years. Pricey but lasts and worth it.

I use Afterglow Cosmetics. Actually, in the last 2 years I've switched virtually all my cosmetics to the Afterglow brand. I'm highly allergic to soy and gluten. Afterglow's gluten free lipsticks and lip liner are amazing and I hear that they just came out with gluten free organic lip glosses too!

I find it really comforting to know that the founder of Afterglow understands celiac diseas from a personal perspective. The website says that both her mother and sister have celiac disease. I've called Afterglow's customer service before and they all seem very knowledgeable about gluten issues... which is a huge difference from most companies who don't have a clue or just email an automated response.

It seems that Afterglow has updated their website since the last comments (and added new products)... it's very interesting. . . Open Original Shared Link

Raisin-- I know of a couple of lines that are completely gluten-free. Of course, they are pricey.

Shiseido-- owned by Nars

100% pure-- only the mascara is not

t. LeClerc tells me all of their makeup is too

Smashbox (all but mascara)

EcoNvey (no gluten ingredients)

Chanel says all lipsticks and glosses are

Some Clinique is

Some Lancome is

Have fun shopping!

I recently switched to Nars mascara and blush--love them!! I also tried Afterglow lipstick and lip liner and was very impressed. :)

Where does one find "Afterglow'? I just re-researched a bunch of Lancome products 'cause I needed/(wanted) some new lipstick and Le Rouge Absolu, Color Design and L'Absolu Rouge are still gluten free.

Go to www.afterglowcosmetics.com. I actually placed an order for one of the starter kits and some eyeshadows last night and if I like them, will probably be ordering more. They are a little pricey but not anymore so than department stores. I'm also trying the Rejuva and Everyday Minerals to see which one I like best. :)

Lisa, here's the link. I bought a tube of the lipstick and a lip pencil--they threw in a sharpener for free. :D

I realize that this is an old thread but wanted everyone to know that I recently communicated with a regional manager at AfterGlow. When I inquired as to whether the company's Everyday Mineral products (including lipsticks) were actually tested for gluten and soy, the answer was NO.

I would love to try their products but I am super sensitive. If anyone who is SUPER SENSITIVE has safely used the foundation (loose powder for dry skin), lipsticks, lip pencils, blush, and bronzer without a reaction, please let me know.

Thanks a million,

I don't know whether this is new news or not, but the what I from the Lauder Companies (Lauder, Clinique, Prescriptives, Origins, Aveda, Bobbi Brown, MAC are ones I can think of....) that I saw stated that their lipsticks are not guaranteed gluten-free (see quote below). I worked for Estee Lauder in the past. This is consistent with the company policy, due to manufacturing processes and purity. However, it should be noted that in a recent study, the amount of gluten found in most lipsticks is not easily determinable, or even available. (Open Original Shared Link). And, as noted in the quote below, just because gluten isn't added TO the lipstick, doesn't mean it isn't IN the lipstick due to manufacturing processes. Currently, I don't know of any companies that independently test their lipsticks for gluten content.

All of Arbonne's make-up, lip stick included, is gluten free.

I just bought 2 tubes of lipstick from here - Open Original Shared Link - it is cheaper than afterglow and I had a better experience with the shipping/customer service.

      First, it's fantastic news that your diarrhea has resolved after a month—that is a huge and critical sign of healing, confirming that the gluten-free diet is starting to work. While it feels slow, this stabilization of your digestive system is the essential foundation upon which weight gain is built. Given the severity of your weight loss, dropping from 50kg to 35kg, it is very normal for the body to need a significant amount of time to recover. The fact that your vitamin levels are stable is a positive sign that your body is now absorbing nutrients, which is the first step. Many people in the Celiac community report that noticeable, consistent weight gain often doesn't begin until several months after their digestive symptoms have fully settled, as the intestines need that time to repair the villi responsible for absorption. It sounds like you are doing everything right by working with your specialists and ruling out other issues like thyroid complications, which, despite the fluctuating TSH, your doctors have confirmed are not a primary concern. Please be gentle with yourself; your body has been through a major trauma. The lack of strength you feel is a direct result of such a low body weight, and as you slowly and consistently nourish yourself with safe, calorie-dense gluten-free foods, that strength will return. Stay the course with your optimism and consistency—you are on the right path, and a healthier figure is absolutely ahead. Are you taking vitamin and mineral supplements? 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.

      Yes, I agree, most doctors miss the subtleties of Celiac disease.   The AIP diet was designed by a doctor who has Celiac herself, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne.  Her book The Paleo Approach is most helpful.   The AIP diet eliminates all grains and other pseudo grains like rice,corn and quinoa because they can be irritating to the digestive track.  It eliminates processed gluten-free foods.  These processed foods are not enriched with vitamins and minerals like their gluten containing counterparts are.  They are usually full of saturated fats and excess fiber, not something healthy one would choose to eat anyway.  Stick with meat and veggies and some low histamine fruits.  Supplement with Benfotiamine and a B Complex to ensure your body has an opportunity to absorb these essential nutrients. You have a blessed day, too, sweetie.

      Let me suggest some possibilities for your nausea/heart burn besides gluten cross contamination that are common in the celiac community: 1. You may have other food intolerances. This is exceedingly common in the celiac community. The two most common food offenders are oats and dairy products. Eggs, corn and soy are also on that list. But it can be almost anything. You might start with eliminating oats and dairy for a few weeks and see if there is improvemen.t 2. You may have MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome)-histamine intolerance: you should research this. 3. You may have SIBO (Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth) 4. You may have an H. Pylori infection or a Candida yeast infection Unfortunately, celiac disease often brings along its friends. Often it generates other health issues by the time we ever get it diagnosed such that going gluten-free is not the only answer to the problem. We can be over simplistic and naive about it in this since.

      Hi! Thank you so much! This was truly helpful. Most doctors I went to were absolutely uninformed and unprepared to treat a celiac patient. I will check for all the things you shared and focus on healing first! Really really thank you! Have a blessed day. 
    • petitojou
      Hi! Thank you   Of course! I still live with my family; there used to be six of us, and now there are four. I rarely leave the house or eat out. Although my mother has also been diagnosed with celiac disease, she does not follow the same precautions as I do. I use separate kitchen utensils (different spatulas, pans, dish towels, plates, toaster - almost everything since I’m highly sensitive), and my food is kept separate in the kitchen. The other two people who live with us consume gluten daily, but unfortunately they are not careful. Although we frequently clean the kitchen surfaces and other utensils (such as the microwave, towels, and tables), because they consume gluten constantly, there are always gluten crumbs everywhere! And more complicated contaminations have happened before. I try to eat separately in my room to avoid it as much as possible, but even on days when I am sure there has been no contamination, I feel nauseous (sometimes I feel like just the smell is enough for it). Does the food inside the fridge should also be separated and in its own shelf? I think that might be the problem too.  I really wanted to leave my home to live a more peaceful and less stressful life in terms of cross-contamination, since the people around me are not careful, but given my current circumstances, it is impossible… so I’ve been trying to deal with it calmly?
