Feb 22, 2021 On the gluten free makeup list below, I also noted which companies test for gluten. Okay with that being said, let’s jump straight into the gluten free cosmetics and makeup listing. Gluten Free Makeup List. Here are all the makeup and cosmetic brands that offer gluten free products, or better, are 100% gluten free.

Jan 27, 2019 14 allergens, allergy free cosmetics, cosmetics The experience related in The Sun this week of a nut allergic student suffering a severe reaction after using a Nivea lip balm containing sweet almond oil should serve as a reminder that, if you have food allergies, the ingredients in skincare products should be carefully checked too. Specialty Gluten-Free Cosmetics. Just as with food shopping, buying gluten-free makeup and toiletries requires you to become familiar with the many aliases of wheat-based products and to scrutinize labels accordingly. Finding a few brands you can trust to be reliably safe options makes shopping for cosmetics stress-free and enjoyable.

Tarte cosmetics has been kept off the GFMG Gluten-Free Makeup List for a very LONG time. While they are an extremely popular company, their gluten policies consist of

“We do not put gluten ingredients in our makeup, but we might have cross-contamination“.

So that means Tarte’s makeup is “gluten free” by ingredients but there is chances of cross contamination during processing or with source materials.

For the very sensitive person, this is not safe. (Looking for strictly and safely gluten-free brands? check out The Gluten Free Makeup List)

But to someone not super sensitive? This is perfect.

In fact 2 years ago when I took a survey, about 60% of my readers told me they could handle Tarte’s potential contamination level. And now that I’m so much less sensitive to gluten, I can now handle Tarte without getting sick at all.

My 5 Favourite Gluten Free Makup from Tarte

So, if you’re one of those not extremely sensitive to possible gluten cross-contamination, let me introduce you to my Top 5 favourites from Tarte:

Amazonian Clay 12-hour Full Coverage Foundation SPF 15

This is a very basic, oil-free, vegan, matte foundation. For being so basic, it’s totally perfect.

The coverage is good, the wear really is 12 hours, and the matte finish has a bit of a velvet texture to it. Not too heavy, not too drying and lasts all day in Austin, TX heat and humidity.

Where to buy: Ulta, Sephora, Tarte, Amazon

Maracuja Creaseless Undereye Concealer

Gotta love Tarte’s naming conventions. They tell you exactly what a product does right in the description.

This concealer is thick enough to cover pretty intense blemishes, but blends out to work well under your eyes.

Where to buy: Sephora, Ulta, Tarte

Tarteist™ Clay Paint Liner

I grabbed this because the funny little tip got me curious. I like painting on eyeliner with a brush. But I’d never seen a squeezeable tube with a little flat palette on the end.

As it stands, this liner actually requires the blending end. It comes out slightly separated and needs a little swirl to get back into shape. Once that’s done, the liner goes on easily with an excellent texture. It lasts and lasts all day, with almost no smudging or wear.

Where to buy: Sephora, Ulta, Tarte

Lights, Camera, Lashes 4-in-1 Mascara

A gluten-free, vegan mascara that gives oomph and pizzazz and wow and also doesn’t melt in Texas heat? Yes please! tarte’s “Lights, Camera, lashes” mascara has been a cult favorite for years. It’s no wonder, considering it hits everything you could want in a daily mascara.

There’s also an adorable travel version of this you can try, if you don’t want a full bottle. But it’s such great stuff, you can’t go wrong with it.

Where to buy: Amazon, Sephora, Ulta, Tarte

Tarteist™ Quick Dry Matte Lip Paint

THIS STUFF THOUGH. I’m so in love with it. It goes on, stays on, and looks amazing for hooours. Every single time I wear either color I have, people ask me about it. They ask because it looks amazing. They ask because they watch me eat a meal and are stunned by how perfect it still looks.

I sound like a paid ad now. Ahahaha WHOOPS. OK but it really is fantastic. I’m in love. You should check it out.

Where to buy: Amazon, Sephora, Ulta, Tarte

Where can you find Tarte products?

Tarte can be found on Amazon, Sephora, Ulta, their website, Macy’s, Dermstore, QVC, and more.

Say Goodbye To Your Gluten Filled Makeup Bag

Do you really need to worry about health and beauty products such as shampoo and hair spray? How about mascara and eyeshadow? Do these products even contain wheat, barley, rye or oatmeal?

The simple answer is ‘yes’ most cosmetic products do contain some form of gluten and can cause symptoms, especially for people that are exquisitely sensitive or have the rash DH.

People with gluten intolerance, celiac disease and dermatitis herpetiformis ARE sensitive to gluten in their personal care products. Everything that is placed on your skin has the potential to enter in your bloodstream. Accidental ingestion can also happen if any gluten containing ingredients are on your skin, hands or around your mouth. Although you might not eat your eye shadow or mascara it does have the potential to get on your hands, and then into your mouth, eyes or nose.

Mac Cosmetics Gluten Free List 2020

The Gluten Free RN has set out on a mission to find gluten free beauty products. We have formed a list of companies that claim to have gluten free cosmetics and beauty products.

Please use this list of companies as a resource guide for finding products. With the following precautions in mind:

• We have not tested every product from every company and therefore cannot guarantee that every product is 100% free from gluten.

• Companies change formulas and ingredients in their products often. When ordering a product we recommend checking the ingredients, and emailing the company for verification.

• Everyone has different skin. While one product may work for me it might not work for you. We recommend testing products on your skin before purchasing them. Many companies will give away or sell samples that can be used as a tester before you decide to make a purchase.

Hello Sam,
Thank you for contacting us. The Tocopherol (Vitamin E) used in our Lip Balms and Glosses is derived from Soy. Other products that do contain the Tocopherol are the Pressed Powders. Our products are vegan based, free of carmine, nuts, lake dyes, fragrance, bismuth oxychloride and parabens. Our powders consist of: mica, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide and iron oxides.

All of these products should work well for you, but you may also want to check a gluten list of ingredients to avoid, since everyone’s skin is different. We do recommend doing a skin patch test when trying a new product to see if your skin is happy with the product. If your skin is sensitive to a product then wash your skin with water and discontinue use.

Are your products gluten free? If so, where does the Vitamin E come from?

Most of our products are gluten free. We are sensitive to this since we know many people suffer from gluten allergies. One common ingredient that contains gluten is Vitamin E. But the Vitamin E we use is gluten free because it’s derived from cold pressing rice bran.
