Irritants
Did you know that nearly two-thirds of rashes appearing on the face are due to irritation from skincare products?
Ingredients meant to improve the skin’s condition can lead instead to redness, flaking, rough texture, and sensitivity. Topical brighteners like hydroquinone, kojic acid, and tretinoin can make the skin light sensitive, potentially worsening dark spots and redness.
