I've never checked, but does anyone know of any gluten free shaving cream, soap, toothpaste and deodarant. I assume most of them have 0 gluten, but just in case, can anyone recommend some things which are not too hard to find. Thanks.

Feel free to move this post to the Gluten-free foods, products, etc. board.

Never assume toiletries won't have gluten. Wheat germ oil and wheat protein are more common than you would think.

Dove and Suave will label gluten ingredients clearly. For organic Giovanni has some nice products in the hair dept but I haven't checked the skin care line. Burts Bees also has some good stuff.

Ravenswood is correct. That being said I've never found a toothpaste with gluten but I've found many shampoos and face lotions with gluten. Hair products and cosmetics seem to be the most likely place you'll find it in the toiletries category. I use Garnier hair products, Secret deodorant and Ivory soap if that helps. Lots of people use Dove products.

Burt's Bees Whitening Toothpaste has gluten in it. :P Just for the record. ;) I was using it at the time I realized that I had to be savy about that kind of stuff. Now I use Tom's of Maine instead. ;)

Yeah, since the company was bought by Clorox, they aren't so great on the gluten free status. :( They don't have any information available unless you contact them, anymore.

Now they say this on their site:

>>I am gluten-restricted and am interested in gluten free products. What products are appropriate for my use?

Please contact us directly regarding any specific products that may contain gluten.

      In general if it is labelled gluten-free then it should be ok for most celiacs, however, those who are super sensitive (which is most who have dermatitis herpetiformis) may want to eat only certified gluten-free items, which are supposed to test down to 10ppm (but don't always!).

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      Have faith, you will survive. I get mine from Pipingrock.com.  500 capsules of 10,000 IU for $22.  That is almost two years worth for me.  250 caps 5000 IU for $6.69 if you only take 5,000 a day.  It's like half the price of Walmart.

      Outgrow celiac?

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:
