California Baby Products

Since it took me forever to find products that work well with my sensitive skin (apparently I'm one of those sensitive celiacs where eliminating gluten from my diet just wasn't enough) I thought I'd share what a saving grace California Baby lotion has been for me. I currently use their Super Sensitive Everyday Lotion and have had no problems with rashes, itchiness, etc. I've often found that even using products that are declared "gluten free" or for "sensitive skin" are still too harsh for my skin- but this has been great.

I was wondering what other California Baby products anyone else uses, and if they've been okay for your skin. I want to use their shampoo and possibly their bath wash, but I still get really nervous to try anything new and would rather read other's experiences first. Thank you!

The California Baby web site is pretty darn good. I posted a question here a while ago about gluten-free bath suds, and no one responded. Meanwhile I had other feelers out and someone from Whole Foods emailed me that for kids Alaffia 32oz which comes in 2 scents with a retail price of 14.99. WHOLE FOODS. July 2011. Obviously you do not have to be a kid.

Back to California Baby. I just was at WF and forgot about the Alaffia and instead bought CB's Chamomile and Herbs bubble bath (Open Original Shared Link). The site I just pasted doesn't say so, but this site

Open Original Shared Link

states: California Baby products are free of common allergens such as milk, egg, peanut, walnut, cashew, almond and pecans, fish, shellfish, soy, and wheat. California Baby products are also free of gluten and casein.

The suds I bought contain tocopherol which sometimes is derived from wheat. But since CB states in their faqs that their baby products are free of wheat...

Anyway, I haven't tried to suds yet.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.
