I wrote to Bobbi Brown, and here's the answer I got back today. As usual, a non answer.

Dear Ms. McNeal,
Thank you for your interest in Bobbi Brown. We appreciate the opportunity to address your concern about gluten and apologize for the delay in responding to your concerns.
We would like to explain that a vast number of raw materials from many different suppliers and sources are used in the manufacture of Estee Lauder Companies' products. It is therefore not possible for us to fully guarantee that our products are completely free of ingredients that may elicit an allergic response in highly sensitive individuals who react to gluten.
For example, it is possible that small amounts of a wheat sourced ingredient may remain on shared manufacturing equipment even after a thorough cleaning. We therefore recommend that you discuss this with your physician, because consumer safety is of utmost concern to us.
However, as we do not have a comprehensive list of products that contain or don't contain certain ingredients, if you would kindly provide us with the specific products names and shades and ingredients with which you are interested, we will be happy to have our chemist check for each of them.
We hope you look to Bobbi Brown for all your beauty needs.
Sincerely,
Francesca Gray
Global Consumer Communications
