How do you tell if your newfound rash is the result of your topical cream or something else entirely?
It can even present as a rash on your facenasty stuff.
Products to Look Out For
So what should you be on the look out for?
These ingredients tend to have higher rates of skin allergy.
Unfortunately, there’s not much you could do other than just avoiding the allergen.
Whether you use the hydrocortisone or not, we recommend really stripping your routine down to the basics.
This allows the skin to heal as well as removing the potential irritant in the first place.
A great way to avoid allergens is to stick with natural brands that have short ingredient lists.
