I e-mailed Lush about their products, and I received a reply in 30 minutes. The reply is below, in case its useful to anyone else ...

Thank you for taking the time to write us. We use several different ingredients that you will want to stay away from, for example Lush uses:

-Cognac Oil (this is mainly found in a few of our Christmas items)

-Fresh Wheatgrass Mucilage (in our Cosmetic Lad moisturizer)

-Wheatgerm Oil (found in our Soft Touch body butter and our Chocolate Whipstick lip balm)

-Beer (in our Cynthia Sylvia Stout Shampoo)

-Cold Pressed Wheatgerm Oil (in our Enzymion moisturizer, Skin

Here's a reply from today- June 2016. Sounds like cross contamination is a risk for all of their products because of the shared "kitchen" facility. Anyone use Lush products and have experience? 

Thank you for your email, I'd be happy to help you with this!

It is so wonderful that your daughter is looking to try Lush. We are a unique company in that our product line is constant changing and being revamped. Because of this, we don't like to have lists as they become out of date very quickly. What I recommend is checking online the ingredient list for the products that she'd be interested in. We don't have too many products that contain gluten, so that would be your best resource. Some ingredients that we use in our products that may contain gluten are: wheatgerm, wheatgrass, oats, oat milk, yeast, soya ingredients, and stout. As well, we do manufacture our products in a kitchen like facility. While we take precautions, cross contamination can happen. 

If you are curious about any product or specific range of products, please let me know and I'd be happy to answer any questions!

Have a wonderful rest of your week! 

All the best,
Lush Customer Care

I use Lush products and have never had any problems. I really like the Big shampoo. I have used the conditioners as well as body washes (It's Raining Men and Happy Hippy). I also use the mint julip (?) lip scrub and the "let's rock and roll" face scrub. No problems!

      Worsening vision 🕵🏽‍♀️

      By trents · Posted

      Vitamin A is important for vision health. But be careful in supplementing it as it can lead to toxicity. Research it and consult with your medical professional. I do not have a definite answer to your original question but I was pursuing the possible cause of nutritional deficiency. But your visual deterioration could be unrelated to your celiac disease so don't rule that out.

      Currently 19. Doctors think I was 1 year old when celiac started, but I wasn't diagnosed until 18, because they didn't do lab work on minors. I've been on a strict gluten-free diet for 14 months now. For example only certified gluten-free nuts and I've researched best brands a lot. I take B vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin C, Curcumin with black pepper, black sesame and green tea extract, magnesium, iron, and a little selenium and zinc, beef liver capsules. I recently had my vitamin and mineral levels retested and D is the only one I don't have enough of now. I had my eyes tested at 17 and they were good back then.

      Awaiting dermatitis herpetiformis confirmation following biopsy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Not everyone with dermatitis herpetiformis needs to avoid iodine. DH is caused by gluten exposure, but iodine can worsen or trigger flares in a subset of people, especially when the rash is active or not yet controlled by a strict gluten-free diet. Some people react to iodized salt, seaweed, shellfish, or iodine supplements, while others tolerate normal dietary iodine without problems. In most cases, iodine restriction is individualized and often temporary, not a lifelong rule for everyone.

      Questions: How old are you now? How long ago were you diagnosed as having celiac disease? Do you practice a strict gluten-free diet? Are you taking vitamin and mineral supplements to offset the nutrient malabsorption issues typical of celiac disease and if so, can you elaborate on what you are taking?

      My vision was good as a teen and now has gotten worse in the last year. Could that be caused by my celiac disease?🤓😎🥸👓🕶️
