thank you for your comment. There are ...Hi there, <br /><br />thank you for your comment. There are many ingredients in your lipsticks/glosses that have HIDDEN GLUTEN. I capitalize this because many over look this and often has mystery symptoms and don't know why. According to my research, and according to Dr. Oz, the ingredient Tocopheryl Acetate and Tocopherol has hidden gluten or cross contaminated gluten. This ingredient is also known as Vitamin E. The FDA certifies and approves products that have 20 PPM (parts per million) of gluten. This does not mean the product is gluten free it just means according to the FDA standards it has a small amount of gluten that is 20PPM or less and is therefore acceptable by the FDA to be 'considered' gluten free to the FDA standards. 20PPM of gluten is still gluten. And just because the FDA considers or deems it safe, does not mean it is for all. So where other's may not be bothered by ingesting that 20PPM daily, many do react to even that small amount. In New Zealand and Australia-products must be tested at 5PPM or less, which is also still gluten, but so much less gluten.As for the FDA not including Caramel coloring as a source of gluten, it is a hidden source of gluten and there are many new articles coming out on this topic. But more importantly can you verify what source the caramel coloring comes from if it's not Wheat Starch, Barley Malt or any grain derivative? Can you also comment on the other ingredients I listed that are hidden gluten? Thanks again for your response!Julie Rosenthalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01151829394845904265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1226060423396010755.post-45694433455226263622014-02-11T17:02:47.427-05:002014-02-11T17:02:47.427-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Julie Rosenthalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01151829394845904265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1226060423396010755.post-49240382970277986182014-02-10T21:54:59.661-05:002014-02-10T21:54:59.661-05:00Hi!

We were told in a YSL training by a corporate trainer of YSL that the caramel ingredient that's in YSL lipsticks is not derived from wheat starch or barley malt, or any grain derivative. Also, because the FDA does not include caramel as a gluten source, the product would be considered gluten free by those standards as well. Just wanted to let you know, you shouldn't have to give up those fabulous YSL lipsticks! xoxoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
