Abstract

|
In general practice of dermatologists, contact dermatitis to cosmetics is a common condition, which is especially frequent on the face of women. It can be due to both irritation and delayed type hypersensitivity, and manifests as various conditions including acute and chronic eczematous dermatitis, photosensitivity, hyperpigmentation, and follicular eruptions. Fragrances and preservatives are the first and second leading causes of allergic contact dermatitis respectively, but novel materials used in recent cosmetic products can be emerged as contact allergens. Patch test or repeated open application test remain the standard for identification of causative allergens.
