Does anyone know of any, or where I could find out which ones are safe? I use a lot because my lips are dry.

Thanks!

all burts bees lip balms are gluten free... the original is my favorite with the peppermint... mmm :)

also, i called wyeth last year regarding chap stick, and all of their varieties are gluten free. i use carmex at home too for the winter when my lips get very chapped... they have only a few very plain ingredients, however i did not call to confirm.

The very best out there IMO is carmex. It comes in pots and tubes and you can get it at Target or Walmart.

I second Carmex. From their Open Original Shared Link:

Does Carmex contain gluten? Nope, not even a speck. There is no gluten in any of our ingredients. We do not use flour in our manufacturing process, so there's no chance of any trace of it on our conveyor belts.

The things= about carmex is that it is not hard and waxy when you put it on and it stays on a lot longer. It is more like a balm, but it has the perfect consistency and it sticks.

It also has a nice vanilla-menthol kind of smell to it. I use it instead of lipgloss and I have used it for years. There is nothing else that even comes close IMO.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
