Spring/Summertime Can Bring Along Seasonal Skin Allergies
Our guest post today is from Tracey Bond-Tolbert – Award Winning Author, Cosmetologist-Esthetician-Facialist & Beauty Product Creator. Read on…
With every daily facial appointment, I am noticing that more and more clients seeking skincare treatments have significant allergies that can have adverse effects of their skin…the reason being the allergens present in the skincare ingredients produced by “nature,” that don’t feel so “natural” when applied to their skin.
As an accomplished & “seasoned” licensed beauty expert I feel we owe it to our clients to inform them of the potential irritants that could possibly cause an inflammatory response in their skin, known as eczema or even contact dermatitis.
“Contact dermatitis,” as explained by specialized pharmaceutical company Intendis (educating on “Skincare in Allergies”) states that: “Skin reactions caused by certain substances are called ‘contact dermatitis’. They should be diagnosed and treated by your dermatologist. If you have already suffered from contact dermatitis, you should avoid putting many different substances on your skin. Do not use skin care products that contain many different ingredients.”
A Dallas facelift surgeon says, “During the spring/summer times and seasons - the weather and air change, making it important to take proper care of your skin.”
Equally important is the need for skin care products users and treatment consumers to do their homework toward preventing an unnecessary skin allergy experience. Not only is it uncomfortable, but the inflammation takes time to heal & repair and can be somewhat unsightly, which is the polar opposite of why one would be using the skin product/service in the first place.

I recommend indulging in Vitamin C treatments & supplements as ideal ingredients for skin health & defense against allergies of all types.
The choices of skincare products marketed to the skincare consumer in the Spring season can be overwhelming to choose from, after all who wouldn’t be moved to respond to the product manufacturer’s appealing advertising claims to help “renew” old, tired, Winter-weather-beaten skin as the scents of the Spring season fill our air.
In the hopes of helping the consumer who has allergy-sensitivities, I hope you’ll pursue your skin care goals well-informed this season. Keep your ingredient list simple, and simplify your regimen as much as possible. Avoid expensive “organic” products that quite possibly could contain emollient “natural” ingredients that could induce a skin allergy that might have you feeling pretty unnatural.
