I went to Sephora and was told Korres products are gluten free. Before I open these I wanted to see if anyone else is more familiar with Korres, I have been checking the internet for hours but cant find out for sure. I did email the company but am so excited to have new make up that I dont want to wait for a reply :P Any info would be appreciated!

The Sephora I go to, the employees do not know much about gluten-free. They could tell me a baby line that is marked gluten-free on it, but other than that, they didn't know which products were or were not gluten-free. I did tried the Korres Evening primrose eye cream, which only states wheat free on the box, not gluten-free. They gave me a sample to try so I didn't have to buy. It made my skin flush and it really didn't do much for the fine lines, so I never bought any. I'm really sensitive to products and after 7 months gluten-free I still haven't found anything I like. Good luck!

You may try Sephora online, I think their customer service is better than in store for gluten-free product knowledge. Just my experience.

The Korres website seems pretty methodical about listing ingredients for every product. That seems like the obvious place to start. Someone recommended the Yogurt Moisturizer to me but it has wheat in it as listed on their site.

I entered Gluten free in the search at Korres.com ... it came up with a list of products. I use the mascara and I when I do I am miserable. It did not come up on the search list ... so in the trash it goes. I can use Almay mascara.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      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.
