Many people experience allergies when wearing makeup. The cause may stem from the irritating ingredients in the cosmetic itself. Therefore, to avoid unwanted side effects when applying makeup, you need to choose low-allergenic makeup cosmetics.
1. What is hypoallergenic makeup?
Hypoallergenic makeup cosmetics are skin care and beauty products that contain ingredients that are less likely to cause allergies or allergic contact dermatitis. These are typically fragrance-free, mineral-based products (which do not contain bacteria or easily expire). Thanks to that, they are all very benign and cause little allergies to the skin.
Usually, makeup contains fragrance ingredients that cause allergic reactions in people with sensitive skin. Some of the symptoms of a fragrance allergy include: redness, stinging, burning, peeling skin... Meanwhile, hypoallergenic beauty products have no or very little of this ingredient. Therefore, hypoallergenic beauty products are the optimal choice for normal and sensitive skin, especially for those who are allergic to makeup or are allergic to cosmetics.
