Perfume is an essential part of many people's style. However, sometimes a person may develop a perfume allergy. A perfume allergy requires checking the ingredients and choosing delicate scents that won't cause an allergic reaction.
Perfumes and allergies – which perfumes cause allergies?
An allergic reaction caused by perfume manifests itself, among other things, by:
- Skin irritation,
- Itchy skin,
- Rash,
- Redness on the skin,
- Peeling of the skin,
- Dry skin,
- Sneezing,
- Rhinitis,
- Dyspnoea,
- Cough,
- Severe headaches,
- Watery eyes,
- Redness and burning of the eyes.
If you experience an allergic reaction after using perfume, you should check which fragrance ingredients may cause it.
How to recognize a perfume allergy?
If you want to check if you have a perfume allergy, it's worth conducting simple tests. One is a skin patch test, which involves applying a drop of perfume to the inside of your wrist and waiting 24 hours. During this time, observe your skin and how your body reacts.
Monitor your body's reactions when using new perfumes. Redness, itching, or a burning sensation after applying perfume may indicate an allergic reaction.
It's also worth avoiding perfumes with strong ingredients, especially if you have sensitive skin. Sensitive skin prefers natural ingredients that don't irritate or cause allergies.
If severe reactions occur, it is worth consulting a specialist such as an allergist.
Do natural perfumes cause allergies?
Skin irritation and allergic reactions most often occur after using fragrances that contain irritating essential oils, synthetic aldehydes used to enhance the fragrance, preservatives and stabilizers, as well as odor-modifying compounds.
In the case of sensitive skin, it is worth choosing natural perfumes that are gentle on the body.
Delicate fragrance notes shouldn't irritate the body. However, before finalizing your allergy-friendly perfume selection, it's worth checking the ingredients listed on the bottle.
