A reader recently shared this link to the SkinSAFE website with me. This page lists all products that don't contain carba mix; the long list is a fantastic reference. I hope it helps you too!

Avoiding a rash when contact with carba mix is inevitable
The best way to avoid allergic contact dermatitis is to avoid skin contact with the allergen that causes it. I also found that I can prevent allergic contact dermatitis by keeping the length of time that my skin is in contact with carba mix to less than the time that it takes for my skin to react to it. That amount of time varies, it is not the same for everyone. After trial and error, I estimate that 6 hours is the maximum time that my skin can have contact with carba mix without getting a rash. Your maximum time might be less or more. Washing with soap and water after contact is necessary in my experience.
When I get vaccines or blood tests done with a needle, either a bandaid or an hypoallergenic tape with a cotton ball is placed on the injection site to stop bleeding. Since adhesives contain carba mix, I get a rash after a bandaid or hypoallergenic tape is on my skin for longer than about 6 hours. I noticed that if I take it off of my skin in 6 hours or less and wash the area with soap and water, I don't get a rash. Adhesives tend to stay on skin after removal; I once forgot to wash the area and I got a rash even though the bandaid was on my skin for less than 6 hours.
I use the same strategy to deal with clothing that is made with carba mix. I try to avoid all clothing that has clear flexible plastic lining in the seams because it gives me rashes. It is very common, mostly in the shoulder area or in ruching of gathered material at the waist, cleavage and bust. Even though I inspect every piece of clothing that I buy, sometimes I don't notice it right away. Whenever I wear a new piece of clothing and I find myself scratching when I wear it, I reinspect and I often find lining in a place that wasn't obvious...
I prefer not to keep clothes with this lining because it's hard to manage wearing them without getting a rash. If a piece is very special, I make an exception and there are precautions that can make wearing it safe. For example, I have a strapless dress with a clear sticky lining inside of the top to help hold it into place. I always wear it for less than 6 hours at a time and I wash the area of my skin that was in contact with the allergen with soap and water right after I take the dress off.
Another item that I wear even though its lining contains carba mix is a strapless bra. It has sticky clear lining under the bust area to help it stay in place. I can't find strapless bras that look good and stay in place that don't have that lining. Since I don't wear this type of bra everyday, I simply make sure that I don't wear it longer than 6 hours at a time and I wash the area of my skin that was in contact with it with soap and water after I take it off.
Good luck with managing your contact with carba mix, please share your experience and any additional advice you have!

My Story...
A few years after getting my ears pierced, a rash developed on my ear lobes and it kept getting worse for a couple of months. I tried upgrading to 18-carat yellow gold earrings, but I still had an itchy rash. I had no known allergies until then, so my doctor sent me to get patch testing of common skin allergens. I found out that I have 3 skin allergies that cause me to get allergic contact dermatitis: nickel, cobalt and carba mix.
The nickel and cobalt allergies are pretty straightforward; my ear rash was gone after I said goodbye to most of my jewelry, including yellow and white gold except for silver jewelry dipped in gold (not containing nickel). I reluctantly put away my precious jewelry and I read the patient information sheets that I received from the allergy clinic. I had no idea what carba mix was and the limited information I received left me confused.
In order to figure out how to avoid contact with carba mix, I put on my detective cap on and I decided to share my discoveries on this blog! I hope this helps others in their management of allergic contact dermatitis caused by carba mix. If you are aware of additional information, please share in the comments!
