It's been a month since my last post! I missed writing on here.
Allergy Update:
After my skin allergy patch test I have about ten common allergies due to fragrances, chemicals and dyes found in day to day cosmetics and home products. Since my test I have tried the Dry Bar "Mudslide" and discovered that I am allergic to a chemical that is used within the Dry Bar products and will have to discontinue using them. I was bummed (it smells so good) when I went through the ingredients and found one of my allergens on the list. #sensitiveskinproblems This chemical triggers the eczema on my face which is not fun.
The positive news from post allergy blues is The Honest Company's products. I have switched my hand soap, shampoo and hand sanitizer so far. One wee of using the foam hand soap I have yet to see any itchy bumps on my hand! I love that they use natural and safe ingredients and that I am not allergic to it! I will be trying out their laundry detergent next. If I were a new first time mom I or anyone who has sensitive skin to definitely look into Honest. I wish they had make up as one of their products and I would definitely try out some foundations and blushers.
Speaking of make up, I have not worn liquid foundation in over two months almost. It has been very rough with work, date nights and weekend fun. Now that my skin is bouncing back for the better I have been reading every ingredient possible online before walking into any store! I am considering having a testing day at Sephora with my list of sensitive skin products. I will update you all if I find a new product that is life changing for me. Until then au natural is the way to go for me and more confidence has been gained with my bare face.
I will continue to embrace my pale olive skin. :)
