Ponds Cold Cream

Does anyone know if Ponds Cold Cream is gluten free? Thanks.

Can I add a question to this? My dd just broke out with a cream from the health food store that she had no problems with before (new jar). Not sure about the ingredient list at this time, could be a new formula or allergic to something else. So I was wondering what she can get from a grocery store that is gluten-free?? Thanks for any input!

I don't have an answer for this, but just curious what you are using cold cream for? I haven't had a need for it since I used stage makeup back when I danced or was on stage in high school. These days, the kids use regular makeup. I think the lighting is so much better than it was in those days, no need for heavy pancake.

What we used was Crisco, or more often than not some store brand or generic equivalent. It melted the makeup off nicely. And if you were me, it caused all sorts of pimples to break out. Not sure if those things are gluten-free, but Spectrum shortening is. I should think plain Coconut Oil would do the same job.

I know this is an old Q but there was no answer and I had been wondering the same thing. I've been using Ponds cold cream and my face has been breaking out and itchy. I'm finally (after 4 months) getting all the gluten out of my diet but I'm still having mostly mild reactions. Anyway, I'm switching cold creams immediately after this response.
