If these reactions appear gradually, it is often a case of sensitized (reversible) skin rather than genetic sensitivity.<\/div><\/details><details class=\"bd-faq-item\"><summary>Is perfume really irritating?<\/summary><div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">Yes, it's the leading cause of skin reactions. The term \u00abfragrance\u00bb on a label conceals a mixture of numerous molecules that are not described in detail. On sensitized skin, it promotes micro-inflammation and is best avoided.<\/div><\/details><details class=\"bd-faq-item\"><summary>Should alcohol be banned from all products?<\/summary><div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">Not necessarily. Healthy skin tolerates a little alcohol, especially at the end of the INCI list. But on sensitized or dry skin, alcohol at the top of the list (i.e. in high concentration) weakens the barrier and should be avoided.<\/div><\/details><details class=\"bd-faq-item\"><summary>How do you spot these ingredients on a label?<\/summary><div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">Ingredients are listed in descending order of concentration (INCI list). The earlier an ingredient appears, the more concentrated it is. Look for the names cited in this guide, or use a cosmetic analysis application that detects them automatically.<\/div><\/details><details class=\"bd-faq-item\"><summary>Are retinol and vitamin C irritants to be avoided?<\/summary><div class=\"bd-faq-answer\">No. These are \u00abuseful\u00bb active ingredients with beneficial biological action. They can irritate if misused, but you learn to control them by introducing them gradually, unlike the \u00abuseless\u00bb irritants in this guide.<\/div><\/details><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"bd-section\"><div class=\"bd-wrap\"><span class=\"bd-section-label\">Further information<\/span><h2>Our guides <em>skin types<\/em><\/h2><div class=\"bd-hub-grid\"><a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/care-by-skin-type\/dry-skin\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Guide<\/span><h3>Treating dry skin<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a><a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/care-by-skin-type\/oily-skin\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Guide<\/span><h3>Treating oily skin<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a><a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/care-by-skin-type\/combination-skin\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Guide<\/span><h3>Treating combination skin<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a><a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/cleansing-care\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Guide<\/span><h3>How to clean your skin<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a><a class=\"bd-hub-card\" href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/facial-care\/\"><span class=\"bd-hub-card-tag\">Hub<\/span><h3>All facial treatments<\/h3><span class=\"bd-hub-card-arrow\">Read the guide \u2192<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/section><div class=\"bd-sig\"><strong>Dr Sylvain David<\/strong><span>Plastic and aesthetic surgeon - Founder of BeautyDecoded<\/span><\/div><div class=\"bd-disclaimer\"><p>Information for educational purposes only.
