Hi Magda,
Is it true that you should give a new product a second try if it gives you a mild allergy reaction in the first? I always take a patch test on the inside of my forearm for every new skin care product, especially the intensive treatment one, but I think our skin has differrent reaction to the same chemical on differrent areas, for examples skin under eyes and skin on your chin are totally different, so how effective is the patch test? |

Patch tests are effective, and this is the are where most cosmetics companies recommend that you test your products.
Something else to consider: if you are prone to sensitivities and/or allergies, find out through an allergist or dermatologist which ingredient(s) you are prone to reacting to, research before you buy, as to avoid these unnecessary reactions. |
