Gluten Free And Wheat Free Facial Care?


Robina

Recommended Posts

Robina Contributor

I've done some searches on here and found some products that people say are gluten free... are they also wheat free? What do you guys use?

I use Zia--the Moisturizing Cleanser and the Ultimate Night Renewal. Those are gluten-free, but not all of their products are.

All of Nars cosmetics facial care products are gluten-free, which is the brand of cosmetics I use, but for facial care, I use Neutrogena--they will send you a list of their gluten-free stuff, but they also clearly label, and I find most of their stuff to be gluten-free.

Dove also clearly labels wheat, oats, barley, and rye, and some of their facial products are gluten-free, too.

Robina, if something says gluten-free, it must, by default, be wheat free as well. Because if it contained wheat, it wouldn't be gluten-free.

AmandaD - Thanks for posting that. I just went and looked it up. It is a really long list, which is great. Lots of great products to choose from.

Thanks for that... I'm so new at this I have no idea what to think... the reason I asked is because in comparing the wheat free and gluten free shopping lists at the Whole Foods site... I noticed some of the wheat free items were not on the gluten free list and vice versa...

Yes, I agree that it can be confusing. If it says wheat free, it isn't necessarily gluten-free, but if it says gluten-free, it must be wheat free as well.

      After I get the endoscopy done, I’ll try to be in gluten-free diet even if I test negative for celiac disease or NCGS to avoid any complications. It does suck because I love wheat breads and Indian breads like rotis and naans, lol. I guess I have to jump to gluten-free options for those. Again, thanks for all your help.

      @Jack Common, You could do a DNA test to see if you have any of the known genes for Celiac Disease.  If you don't have any genes for celiac disease, look to another source for your health problems.  If you do have celiac disease genes and have improvement on the gluten free diet, you probably have active Celiac.  Further testing would be beneficial. Keep in mind that different gluten containing breads have different amounts of gluten.  Think thick chewy pizza crust and artisan breads, and whole wheat breads for the gluten challenge.  Cookies and pastries do not contain as much gluten.   Since your blood tests were inconclusive, continuing with the gluten challenge may be needed to provoke a stronger autoimmune reaction sufficient for antibodies to get into the blood stream.

      I found out I had celiac because of eye problems. I developed an eye irritation that was sensitive to light, pressure, and red. My eye doctor said I had iritis, an inflammation of the iris. The treatment was prednisone drops. This is a common symptom related to ankylosing spondylitis, a form of arthritis that runs in my family. My doctor wanted to start me on immunosuppressants, but I refused due to side effects. I tried a few anti-inflammatory diets and found the specific carb diet helped, which led my doctor to test me for celiac, which was positive. Now I know when I get glutened because I have a flare up of my iritis. I call it my canary in a coal mine. First the eye, then the arthritis flare up begins.

      Soap, water and scrubbing won’t “kill” gluten, but it will physically remove it if done well if you also add a thorough rinse step.
