Lip Product Survey!

Hi everyone, I'm doing a research project on lip products in hopes of finding out which ones are gluten-free or not. I want to test the most popular lip products used by celiacs (both men and women). Do you mind sharing which products you use? Also could you share which ones you used to use (if you found out that they had gluten in them don't use them anymore)? You just have to post the brand of the product and the type. For example, Maybelline (brand) shiny-licious lipgloss (type).

Thanks!

Eesha

Hi Easha,

I use brands that will verify that the lip products below are gluten-free--

Burt's Bees Lip Shimmers

Badger Balm Lip Balms

Andrea Rose Lipsticks and Lip Glosses

Everyday Minerals Lip Glosses

dandelionmom Enthusiast

I use Burt's Bees lip shimmers. I use them because they're gluten-free. I used to just randomly pick up tinted glosses from the drug store.

I use:

ELF super glossy lip shines SPF 15

Neutrogena MoistureShine Lip Soother SPF 20

I love both and was told (by the companies) both were gluten-free...

I didn't check the whole product line. Just the specific ones that I'm currently using.

Loreal Color Riche Lipstick #845

Chanel Aqualumiere Lipstick #47

Chanel Infrarouge Lipstick #45

GlutenGalAZ Enthusiast

I mainly use:

Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Blam (gluten free)

Sometimes use:

Everyday Minerals Cherry Fizz Lip Gloss (gluten free -- you will find a long forum on this site about this brand)

Good Luck with your paper :D

Not to hijack, but I have a question for you ladies using the Burt's Bees lip balms......what, specifically are you using?

I looked at several in the store the other day, and the ones in the slim tube have tocopherol in them, but the ones in the squeeze tube didn't appear to. I guess I'm unclear on whether tocopherol is actually a problem? Also, I'm pretty picky and prefer a more waxy type lip balm as opposed to a more gloss type (they usually feel too sticky for me).

TIA!

*sorry for the hijack! :unsure:

No need to be sorry :D That's a great question.

It's true that we need to investigate the source of tocopherol/vitamin E since it can be derived from wheat.

In the case of Burt's Bees--they state that theirs is sourced from soy.

I use Burt's Bees lip shimmers and Everyday Minerals lip glosses.

cruelshoes Enthusiast

The ones I am using now are:

Burts Bees Lip Shimmers

Burts Bees Lemon-Lime Lip Gloss

Burt's Bees Strawberry Lip Gloss

Burts Bees Honey Lip Balm

Burts Bees Beeswax Lip Balm

Everyday Mineralls Lip Gloss (cherry fizz, copper, soccer practice and one more I can't remember)

Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Lip Balm

Lisa16 Collaborator

For moisture, carmex wins hands down. The second choice is burt's bees-- the honey scented one (not peppermint or pomegranate, which irritate me)

For lipsticks I like Clinique different, Chanel "darling", and 100% pure lipgloss and cheek/lip tint. I also like the burt's bees shimmers in the tube type applicators.

Do not use Aveda products. I got zapped bad by a lipgloss from them.

I use some of the MAC lipglosses. There are some lipsticks by them that are not ok though.

I e-mailed Chanel several months ago and they stated all of their lip covers....gloss and lipstick are gluten free. I am sorry I did not save the e-mail to forward but unless things have changed over the last couple of months they are safe.

      @sleuth, Has your son been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  All of those symptoms can be caused by malnutrition.  I had severe malnutrition that went unrecognized by my doctors.  Intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and gastrointestinal distress are symptoms of deficiencies in the eight essential B vitamins, especially Thiamine B1, which becomes low first because the demand is higher when we're sick.     Celiac Disease causes inflammation and damage of the intestinal lining which inhibits absorption of essential nutrients.  Checking for nutritional deficiencies is part of proper follow up care for people with celiac disease.   Is your son taking any vitamin supplements?  Most supplements contain thiamine mononitrate which in not readily absorbed and utilized by the body.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that is shown to promote intestinal healing.  Benfotiamine is available over the counter.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Is your son eating processed gluten-free foods?  Gluten-free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.   Is your son following a low histamine diet?  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten and other foods high in histamine.  High levels of histamine in the brain can cause anxiety, insomnia, and depression.  The body needs the B vitamins to make the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) to break down and clear histamine.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Vitamin C helps clear histamine as well.  Some people find over the counter antihistamines helpful as well, but they're not for long term use.   Nicotine has antihistamine-like properties, but can also irritate the gut.  Tobacco, from which nicotine is derived, is a nightshade (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  Nightshades contain alkaloids which affect gastrointestinal permeability, causing leaky gut syndrome.  Nicotine can cause gastrointestinal irritation and alter for the worse the microbiome. Safer alternatives to Nicotine that have antihistamine properties include Lemon Balm (Sweet Melissa),  Passion Flower, Chamomile, and Bilberry.  They can be taken as supplements, extracts, or tea.  These will help with the anxiety, insomnia and depression in a much safer way. Oolong tea is also helpful.  Oolong tea contains the amino acid L-Theanine which helps the digestive tract heal.  (L -Theanine supplements are available over the counter, if not a tea drinker.)  Tryptophan, a form of Niacin B3, also helps calm digestive symptoms.  Another amino acid, L-Lysine, can help with anxiety and depression.  I've used these for years without problems.   What ways to cope have you tried in the past?

      In general if it is labelled gluten-free then it should be ok for most celiacs, however, those who are super sensitive (which is most who have dermatitis herpetiformis) may want to eat only certified gluten-free items, which are supposed to test down to 10ppm (but don't always!).

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.
