Sadly, I have found out that all my lip products have harmful ingredients. Can anyone recommend some to me that I can replace them with? Thanks!

I highly reccomend Red Apple Lipstick! Afterglow has some shades as well. I use Red Apple because they have really pretty pink and shimmer shades. I have 4 of their lipsticks and two glosses. They are also nut and soy free and have a lipstick exchange program. Very nice customer service as well. I know that others have thier favorites.ut I waited over a year and half tofind a pretty pink to replace what I was using....Love RAL They also sale a lipbalm.

I use Afterglow and Burt's Bees Lip Shimmers. Looks like I'll have to check out Red Apple too :)

Red Apple Lipstick's products are fantastic! I believe thier countdown to Christmas sale is still going on so if you sign up for the free VIP membership you can stack the monthly coupon code with the sale for a great deal! Plus, they have thier lipstick exchange program where you can send in your old lipstick for a discount on a new one! They are amazing and so friendly! Check them out for sure!

Thanks! I'm definitely going to order from Red Apple Lipstick! How did you go about finding the right colors for you? I've never ordered a lipstick online before.

They have several pictures of each shade and are pretty true to the color online. I also judged it by how it looked on the models, finally, I pulled out my favorite that I could no longer use and went by that as well. I love french skirt, it has a shimmer to it and you can add other matte shades to it to change them up. I thought the red would be too bold for me, but when they sent me a sample, I use alittle of it with The French Skirt shade. I will say some of the shades are very light feeling and some a little heavy (French Skirt and some glosses) I like that though. I started out with one lipstick and one gloss and went from there. Great people, if you facebook, check out their page there!

Depending on where you live, there are lipsticks you can buy in a store. NARS entire make-up line is gluten free which is sold at various department stores and some make-up specialty stores ( i think MAC sells that line). I believe most bare minerals lipsticks are also gluten free.

To be honest I didn't really know what shades to pick up. I just sort of went off my skin tone (I have very light skin with pink undertones). Skin with pink undertones tend to do better with lip colors that are also pink or reds that are blue based NOT orange. I use Red!, Rebel, New York, Beach Peach and Petal Pusher lipsticks and I have the Metropolis lipgloss. The wonderful thing about Red Apple Lipstick's lipsticks are you can apply sheer coats or layer it on for a more bold look.

I use Red Apple also.  I love the red-sometimes I use it over gloss or mix with some of their lighter ones.

I did try Red Apple and love it! I ordered 2 different shades of pink-- one lighter mauve for everyday and a rose shade. They stay on a long time, don't dry my lips out, and taste and smell good. Highly recommend.

      @plumbago, I found a good PDF on cholesterol:  Unlocking the mysteries of VLDL: exploring its production, intracellular trafficking, and metabolism as therapeutic targets I just started it, but it may have answers for us, with whacky cholesterol.  The pharmaceuticals don't seem to be interested in anything but statins.   "The nicotine in tobacco causes a decrease in the HDL cholesterol level. " Maybe you should start smoking? 🤪 I have high LDL and low HDL.  It is genetic mutations in the LDLR, APOB, PCSK9, or LDLRAP1 genes. My whole family is on statins for Familial Hyperliperdemia except me.  December I had ultrasound and cat scan for Carotid Artery blockage and both sides are above 85% blockage.  I started on Atorvastatin and that made me weaker than ever, even with CoQ10.  I asked for and got prescription for 2000 mg/day Nicotinic Acid B3 and in the 3 weeks my numbers changed. I am feeling realy good lately.  Stronger and more flexible.  Sleeping better.  Getting roto router (TCar) as soon as I get clearance from a cardiologist.  I expect that by my next blood panels in April to be even better. I am beginning to believe that like vitamin D where the RDA only accounts for preventing Rickets, the RDA for B3 is way underestimated.   From Oct 22 to Jan 17: A1c from 13.5 to 10.2 eGFR from 55 to 79 Triglyeride from 458 to 362 Total cholesterol from 245 to 264 HDL from 27 to 44 VLDL from 84 to 68 LDL from 134 to 154

      I have taken thiamine on and off (just not at this exact moment), and I’m not sure it's made any difference. Yes, I almost always “fast” (12 hours NPO) for blood tests, as do a great many other Americans, so I tend to think that’s not it. All I can say is that the mystery continues. I could do some speculating here…well, heck, let me go ahead and speculate now: The lab ranges we all see on our reports are more or less the averages of Americans who have had those blood tests. Now, it’s up to you and me whether or not to think of the average American as healthy. I can make arguments both ways, more often than not, on the negative. My point here is that maybe the current range of HDL is somewhat skewed (ie, low), and maybe just maybe my super high (plus 100s) HDL results are not something to worry about; the range just needs updating. Why do I say this? Because pre-celiac disease diagnosis, my HDL values were in the normal range, but post celiac disease diagnosis, my HDL levels are way above average. See where I’m going? My trusty guidebook on celiac disease, Recognizing Celiac Disease by Cleo Libonati, RN, BSN, says that HDL increases after being on the gluten free diet. Or can increase, I guess. Then again, it could be something else. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ In thinking of going to a cardiologist, I sort of fear that he/she will be dismissive of a link to celiac disease, treated celiac disease, and would not therefore be considering all possibilities. @trents I'm sorry you've been diligently working on your numbers to no effect. That must be frustrating. LDL is a world that is far better understood than HDL, so for you there's maybe less "mystery." Familial hypercholesterolemia is for sure something that can be tested. Outside of that, you're right, genetics can determine a general pattern.

      Well, I have the opposite problem. My LDL has been moderately high for years. I eat healthy and exercise regularly but can't seem to move that meter. I used to be on a statin (and my doctors want me to go back on one) and it brought both HDL and LDL down but the ratios never changed. I think a lot of that cholesterol stuff is just baked into the genes.

      Wow, @plumbago, Curiouser, and curioser... Have you been fasting?  Apparently HDL levels increase after fasting... https://ajcn.nutrition.org/article/S0002-9165(23)31185-7/abstract   I must say it, try taking some Thiamine.  Thiamine helps regulate lipoproteins... Thiamine helped lower HDL in this study whether they had diabetes or not. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3921172/#:~:text=Serum thiamine and its derivatives,supplementation (p %3D 0.009).

      Welcome to the forum, @Tyoung! I would assume for the time being that the mild gastritis and the celiac disease are connected and that once you get a good handle on gluten free eating and experience significant healing in the lining of your duodenum, you will also see improvement in the gastritis as well. Gastritis is more often than not an accompanying finding that is commented on in the post scope/biopsy notes when people are positive for celiac disease.
