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).

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By cristiana · Posted

      Thank you for the update @Rejoicephd it is good to know that you may have some answers.  Keep up the good work with your diet, and do let us know if you do get a firm diagnosis.  I took so long to feel better and for my TTG levels to normalise,  but got there in the end, so also bear in mind it does take longer for some of us.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By StuartJ · Posted

      Well, three months later and a startling revelation!  After going gluten free (and nearly bankrupt buying special foods), my wife made a lunch of meat potatoes and gravy made with Bertolli white sauce - no wheat there right?  Big flare up withing hours and I was really wiped out with it.  She rechecks the label on the sauce bottle and right at the bottom of the ingredients XANTHAN GUM. There's our #1 suspect again!  So by way of experimenting, she decided to try making a loaf of bread with just regular white flour like she used to do and see what happened; the familiar smell hit me when I walked in the door last night and I sat down to eat this still warm, fresh goodness - I thought even if I have to take Imodium sandwiches, it will be worth it 😋 No ill effects, either overnight or today!  Half the loaf is now gone because I had some for supper, saving just one last slice for breakfast in the morning` - I've used the bathroom once and that was normal, so maybe it is not the gluten after all? Can't wait to try a beer! 😁

      Could this be a new intolerance

      Unfortunately, the development of celiac disease usually is not an end in and of itself. It usually brings along friends, given time. It is at heart an immune system dysfunction which often embraces other immune system dysfunctions as time goes on.

      Thanks so much for the responses. I will urge him to go for further investigation. To be 48yrs old and develop a new allergy.. ugh, As if celiac disease isn’t enough!

      This does not seem to be an anaphylactic response but I agree it would be wise to seek allergy-food sensitivity testing. You might look into ALCAT food sensitivity testing.
