Hi there! A method to determine which ingredients can irritate someone's skin is called “patch testing.” 💕💕Many skin care products contain substances that, when applied to the skin, can trigger an allergic reaction 😱 A person can find out if a product includes components that could result in a skin reaction by conducting a patch test at home.🥳🥳
So why we should conduct a patch test? Numerous different components may be included in skin care products. Some of these ingredients may cause skin irritation or possibly an allergic reaction in some people. Before using a product on a larger area of skin, a person can conduct a patch test on a tiny area of skin to see how well the product is tolerated by their skin! 🤩🙁
How to patch test? 😎👏🏻
1. First, get the product that you will test. 🖤
2. Get an ample amount of the product and apply it to the most sensitive areas of your skin. (On your jawline and the inner side of the elbow) 🔥
Note: Keep the product on the affected area of the skin for as long as you would normally leave it on. When trying a product that they would often wash off, such as a cleanser, users should leave the patch on for 5 minutes or as long as recommended by the instructions. 🤩👏🏻
3. Leave the product for 24 hours 🙏🏻🙏🏻 and then make sure to observe any negative reactions such as itchiness, redness, or stinging sensation 🥳
And If there is no irritation occurred proceed to apply the product to your face 💋
Hope this helps!
