<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hello! Thanks to everybody who responded to my question about lipsticks. I received lots of good information. First of all, there is some good information in the archives that was sent out a couple of months ago. Four people told me you need to be careful with lipstick because you lick your lips, therefore you ingest it. My doctor who is a specialist told me not to worry about lipsticks. Here is another response: My doctor says that we don't need to worry about lipsticks. He is a celiac specialist at Columbia Presbyterian in NY so I tend to believe him. I use whatever I want and have never had a problem. He believes that we have all gotten a little too crazy with this issue, as well as lotions, shampoos, toothpaste- unless you have DH, which I do not. Lipsticks: Neutrogena, Color me Beautiful, Lazlo, Shaklee (1-800-263-6674), Almay, Beauticontrol, Revlon's Colorstay Lipcolor, Ultima II Lipsexxxy Lipcolor, Banana Boat - all varieties. Also need to watch for Vit. E because it contain wheat germ oil. Hi - I asked Clinique for a list of their ingredients that are derived from grains - they sent a list of ingredients categorized by grain - ie ingredients from wheat, barley, oats, rye, etc. I also inquired about the source of their colorings & dyes - they said they are gluten-free. I went to the Cosmetic counter and reviewed their lipsticks & lip pencils and found one of each with no forbidden ingredients. The sales assoc. were very helpful & patient. I looked at their lip conditioners - balm & all about lips - both contained ingredients derived from wheat. Thanks for all your help! Happy Holiday's! Stacey
