Everyday Minerals Is Staying Gluten-free

[SGWhiskers]

Everyday minerals changed the formula of their lipglosses and added vitamin E. I panicked and wrote the company. The response was that the Vitamin E is soy derived. Hurray for most of us. Also, the representative shared that one of the owner's children is "allergic" to gluten. I suspect that that will mean continued gluten free products.

In other news, I have spread the word about celiac to 3 symptomatic friends/acquaintences who are looking into testing and/or trials of the gluten-free diet. I find that everyone I mention I have celiac to says, "Oh, I know so and so who has that." We're getting closer every day.

I went online to order some products this past weekend, and noticed that the FAQ stating that everyday minerals products were gluten free was no longer there. I e-mailed the company and thought I would share the response.

Original Question: "I used to see a question in the FAQ that said that Everyday Minerals products were gluten free. I don't see this statement anymore. Are Everyday Minerals products still gluten free, meaning no wheat, barley, rye, or oats?"

Response: "Thanks so much for sending this over to me so I can help you.

All of our products are vegan based, free of carmine, nuts, lake dyes, fragrance, bismuth oxychloride and parabens.

Our powders consist of: mica, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide and iron oxides. Our finishing powders vary and some consist of rice powder, kaolin powder and zea mays (corn powder).

All of these products should work well for you. But you may wish to check a gluten list of ingredients to avoid, just to make sure
