Hi, all,

Well...Being new to all of this, I have been most concerned with lipsticks/glosses/chap lip products, etc...as far as gluten in cosmetics goes...

So, I would like for this "Thread" to only discuss those products, if possible.

This is what I have found out on my own and gathered from these posts/other Net sources, etc: (Please add any add'l info....)

gluten-free Lip products:

I called. Was told they get the question about gluten-free all the time.

They reassured me that ALL of their lip products are gluten-free

Just found this product on the Net:

All of the additional stuff I posted here came from posts on this site and other good Net sources, so it should all be ok...If anyone sees a problem with anything, let me/us know. Thanks, G :)

Mary Kay lip products are gluten free. The creme lipstick has soy in it, though.

Bobby Brown lipsticks and glosses (and makeup) are also gluten free. I contacted my representative and she checked herself. However, she did say that there are nut oils in their lip products, so if you're sensitive to nuts, you may want to be careful.

I've used Neutrogena and have just stuck with what works. However, all the information in this thread is very valuable. Thanks for compiling it.

Great list - thanks! FYI the toll free for ECCO BELLA is (877)696-2220. They sent me their catalog with lots of gluten-free stuff. Love love love their lipstick. Dreamhouses

I received an email response from Revlon last week stating that none of their products should be considered gluten free as they are unable to verify info from their suppliers.

FaithInScienceToo Contributor

Thanks - I just tossed 2 Revlon lip glosses.

Anyone know anything about Clinique or Estee Lauder lip products?

Clinique and Estee Lauder products contain gluten. I finally checked with the companies after I was getting severe headaches and celiac-related symptoms when using them. MAC cosmetics and Chanel products are both gluten free.

FaithInScienceToo Contributor

MANY THANKS TO THOSE WHO SHARED THEIR INFO...

Let's see...

Food...check....

Lip products...check...

Toothpastes...check...

Anything I need to be sure is gluten-free?

hope not...

Love to all, Gina

PS - I had my FIRST mini-break-down over the past 2 days...I didn't want to remember I have Celiac's Disease...didn't want to eat, even...

I am back to normal today...and back to being SO grateful to have found out what was 'wrong' with me...AND SO grateful for all of you...

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?
    • Fayeb23
      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!
    • Scott Adams
      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.
    • RMJ
      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,

      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…
