This document discusses whether celiacs should be concerned about gluten in cosmetic products. It notes that while gluten may enter the body through skin contact or ingestion from hands, the ability of gluten to permeate skin is unknown. It summarizes that celiacs should avoid cosmetics not labeled gluten-free, especially those near the mouth, nose or eyes. Children's skin care products should also be gluten-free if likely to touch skin and accidentally be ingested. Confidence in labeling and certification is important due to the subtle nature of gluten reactions and lack of easy testing for gluten in products.
