Just finished a podcast with @theecowell One of the questions I was asked was my viewpoint regarding fragrance in skin care. Here are my #sundaymorning thoughts- . . 👉Firstly as a #dermatoloigist we all had to go through many years of #patchtesting , spending hours (months) in allergy clinics, performing countless batteries of tests & readings in addition to more time counselling patients of potential allergens & cross reactions. Fragrance is a super common culprit that lit up the European Standard Battery of tests. Additionally it still is a frequent culprit for ‘personal products’ lighting up ROAT or repeat open application testing . . Remember, dermos see a skewed population of patients, namely patients with sensitive skin, eczema, & inflammation of unknown origin, hence patch testing clinics. The incidence of fragrance allergy in the general population is around 1%...no big deal when you are 30 times more likely to develop a skin cancer in Australia (to put ‘skin concerns’ into perspective) . . 👍🏻if you don’t suffer from a compromised skin barrier, knock yourself out with fragrance, sensibly of course. Why is there an increase in fragrance allergy? Possibly because it is more widely known with this thing called social media. Possibly cause lots more skin care addicts are putting on potential irritants that compromise the skin barrier allowing for an increase in potential allergens & hence sensitisation, possibly cause there is a whole lot more of products...that contain fragrance, or possibly it is a combination of all these factors . . 🙄Sensible advice: You might want to opt for fragrance free topicals (different from ‘unscented’) if you have dermatitis, eczema, rosacea, & multiple allergies. Consider seeing a medical dermatologist if you have weird unexplained rashes of your eyelids, face, and neck. Remember, in Oz, your chances of developing a skin cancer is much much higher than developing a potential allergy to fragrance. My 2 cents worth . . 😎Dr Davin Lim @cliniccutis @drdavinlim Brisbane, Australia🇦🇺 #skinallergies #perfumeallergy #patchtesting #fragranceallergy .

Humans' body can have any kind of allergy. Like: Drug allergy Food allergy Contact dermatitis Fragrance allergy Etc So I am going tell you about fragrance allergy.it's symptoms could be like headache,having trouble breathing,skin rashes,skinirritation,sneezing,coughing and runny nose Etc. Why you are allergic to the fragrance? If you have fragrance sensitivity (fragrance allergy)..that's mean...Your body doesn't support it,your mind doesn't like it or it doesn't suit you. How to be non-allergic to any kind of fragrance? You will have to make your body supportive to it.you will have to ready your mind to love it. Tell yourself (to your mind and body) that: I love that fragrance.it is suitable to my mind and body.My mind and body are supportive to it.Tell it to yourself again and again for some days(5-6 times a day). If you do it,your mind and body will understand it and will be like this.Your body's sensitivity towards it will get end and it will not be anymore. #Fragranceallergy https://www.instagram.com/p/B9R748SlomF/?igshid=16dtnvuly6opr

*** Trigger for allergies: Fragrances ***
Potentially sensitising allergens are Cinnamal (Cinnamaldehyde), Cinnamyl Alcohol (Cinnamalcohol), Citral (Lemon oil, Lemon grass), Farnesol, Hydroxycitronellal.
Low potential allergens with low sensitising power Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Amyl Cinnamal, Aniseed Alcohol, Benzyl Benzoate, Benzyl Cinnamate, Benzyl Salicylate, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Citronellol, Coumarin, Eugenol, Geraniol, Hexyl Cinnamal, Limonene, Linalool, Methyl 2-Octynoate.
The allergenicity of perfumes also depends on external influences such as air or light. Some of them are quite weak contact allergens as pure substances. On contact with atmospheric oxygen, limonene, linalool or geraniol, for example, can produce significantly more sensitising secondary products. Oxidation products of limonene and linalool are also skin irritants. Fragrances such as oakmoss, Peruvian balsam, musk or sandalwood oil can cause photoallergic contact dermatitis because they change under the influence of UVA. Characteristically, the contact allergy develops on skin areas exposed to direct UV light.
