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.

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
