Why Sensitive Skin Needs Fragrance & Sulfate Free Hair & Body Care

Fragrance-free hair and body care are on the top of dermatologist lists of recommended products for sensitive skin. There is good reason why that fresh, spring, flowery scent of fragrance can be so bad for you.

Fragrance contains many hidden chemicals that can cause skin reactions. They may smell good, but they are not good for you. Of course, fragrance is added to just about every skin care, cosmetic, hair, and body care product. According to the non-profit consumer database Environmental Working Group (EWG), fragrance has been linked to many skin conditions, including allergies, dermatitis, and respiratory problems. It's always best to choose fragrance-free hair and body care products.

Sulfates, specifically in the form of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), is another ingredient to avoid. Most shampoos, toothpaste, soaps, and face and body washes contain SLS as a detergent and foaming agent. This harsh detergent tends to dry the skin and lead to a host of other health issues. In toothpaste, it's been reported to exacerbate or cause canker sores. In your shampoo and soaps, it can bring about contact dermatitis. Therefore, SLS-free products are crucial for your health.

NOTE: It's recommended you perform a Self Patch Test before trying any new product or consult with your dermatologist or allergist.
