Face Moisturizer

Can anyone recommend some good face products?

I used to use Clinique, but the moisturizer gel and eye cream were not gluten-free (the normal lotion is, but it is too heavy for me for summer-time use).

I have been searching for good replacements, but haven't had much luck finding anything that I like yet (I have purchased 2 or 3 so far). Someone suggested that I check out origins. The very nice woman who helped me told me that they would not say that there was not CC issues, but their ingredients did not contain gluten. I was so excited, that I didn't bother looking at the ingredient lists, and purchased 4 products.

(I am sure those of you that are more experienced with gluten-free can see where I am heading...)

So, I got home and read the labels, and 2 had ingredients that included the words WHEAT and BARLEY. :(

I was so excited as I left the store, and now I am just dissapointed (and kicking myself for not reading the darn labels while I was in the store). I have already written them an e-mail...we'll see what they say.

In the meantime, can anyone recommend any good products?

I need a moisturizer that isn't too heavy. (one with sunscreen would be great too)

I would also like to find a good eye cream replacement (the one I got from origins does not appear to have any gluten, but I am going to wait until I get a response before I commit to using any of their product)...

Thanks so much!

Personally I like Open Original Shared Link including the moisturizer and eye cream. While it doesn't say gluten-free on it, I haven't had a problem with either one. And they're easy to find at drug stores and Wal-Mart.

Cerave has an A.M. with sunscreen and a P.M. version for night. All Cerave products are gluten-free (I have checked with the company).

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
