Let’s face it. Not all women are born with flawless and blemish free skin. Over the years, we cannot deny that cosmetics, aside from diamonds, have become a girl’s best friend.
May it be as simple as going to the grocery or ending the work week by painting the town red, a woman has got to have a dab of light tint on the cheeks or on those luscious ruby red lips.
Just imagine the horror when you suddenly realize that your skin and the makeup you out on are not perfect combination! Acne eruption and fish lips are not a good sight to behold!
So, before grabbing that nude lipstick or sun-kissed bronzer you’ve got your eye on. Consider these few simple tips:
Check the ingredients
Allergens are often triggered by fragrances, formaldehyde-releasing agents, colors and preservatives and many more. It is also best to stay with makeup removers that have less alcohol content to avoid causing skin irritation due to dryness.
Consult dermatologist
If you are aware that your body is extra sensitive, it is recommended to acquire a professional advice. Dermatologists can administer a patch test. This would require applications of various topical ingredients to the skin to determine which chemicals give a reaction.
Avoid cheap products
It is true that cosmetics cost much nowadays. The appearance of cheap products can be enticing, but be warned an allergic reaction may cause a hefty price to treat.
Use of Hypo- Allergenic products
It is not a guarantee that hypo-allergenic products contain zero allergen causing ingredients. Baby products are best to use for those with super sensitive skin as these products use gentle ingredients and are mostly water-based. For moisturizers, be sure to stick with the natural oils.
