Foundation Causing Break Outs?

My daughter is a silent Celiac. She's been gluten-free for about 7 months now. She had acne issues until about June. Then she went without make up for 5 weeks. As soon as she put on make up for a ballet performance she broke out. Could her make up contain gluten that is making her break out? Does anyone have a good gluten free oil free foundation she can try?

I got some great gluten-free makeup. It's Afterglow cosmetics. I used to itch & get puffy from make up for about the last 10 years but then I found out I was a celiac & got gluten-free make up & no more itch, no more puffies.

Cover Girl Clean Makeup for Sensitive Skin is an awesome oil free foundation that beats many expensive foundations.

I believe it is gluten free, someone checked on the forums checked up on this about a year ago and verified it was (and the ingredients list looks clean). I've never had a breakout with it, and I have pretty oily/acne prone skin if I'm not careful. I also live in a really humid climate and the wear on this makeup is amazing, considering.

I've used L'Oreal Visible Lift for many years, and I suffer from Dermatitis Herpetiformis. It has never caused breakouts (at least, for me!).

      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.):
