Moisturizers And Shampoos

Ok I've been gluten-free for many years and am having very few issues food wise. After having a lot of hair loss and skin rashes I'm finally going gluten-free on all external products.

I've read here that Gariner, sauve and dove hair products label clearly. Any others that you recommend for very dry hair?

Lastly I've used La Mer face lotions for years, I attribute them to why I look 10 years younger then I am. I called Estee Lauder, they own La Mer and they told me La Mer contains no gluten however wheat is clearly listed on the label!

So I am looking for a face moisturizer that is very very rich and moisturizes all day long. I've tried Olay and my face gets flakey after a few hours (and I don't know if they are gluten-free or not). Does anyone have any suggestions for any products for very dry skin?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Susan,

I like this moisturizer.....it's probably won't compare to the LaMer, but it's quite rich and lasts all night for me. My skin isn't terribly dry, but it is much drier in ther winter.

I've used products from the 3 shampoo brands you mentioned. In my opinion (I have dry, naturally curly hair that is colored), the Garnier is the most moisturizing. They clearly list gluten, and their customer service is excellent.

I'm currently using Burt's Bees's Color Keeper Shampoo and Conditioner. I like them very much, although you may not find them moisturizing enough based on what you said. Maybe one of their other formulations would work better for you. Not all their stuff is gluten-free, but they have a gluten-free list and label clearly. Plus, they don't use the harsh detergents that the others do.

Best of luck--it's really frustrating sometimes trying to find products that work nicely and that are gluten safe for us :)

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.
