Make Up And Cosmetics - Gluten-Free And Cf/Sf

Hi! I'm new here so I hope its okay to post this in this forum (if not sorry and please remove it to the correct one!)

I've been looking at the site and all the links for make up and cosmetics that are gluten free.

The thing is I also need them to be vegan (casein/lactose/dairy free) and free from soy (so Vitamin E cannot be derived from wheat or soy) and also free from yeast, egg and animal products plus apples and citrus fruits.

I cannot find any without trace cross contamination amounts (even though they are listed as gluten free because they share equipment or factory space!)

I'm looking for all types so thats foundation, blush, eyes, etc.

Also, off topic (unsure if I need to post seperate) are there any Cornflakes or Rice cereals or cocoa powder that are again free from gluten/wheat, casein and soy.

I've been gluten free for over three years but the cross contamination issues are a joke in the EU. Add that to the casein/soy issue and my diet is very limited. Even the free from food has cross issues and no mention that their glucose syrup is from wheat!

Thanks for reading and hope you can help.

The afterglow cosmetics might fit your needs. I have been looking for GFSF cosmetics for a long time and never clicked that link. It turns out they derive their Vit E from sunflower seed and I didn't see any soy in any of the products I looked at. I only looked at a couple things as I didn't have much time but I will be going back there.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.

      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
