Dermocosmetics. Allergic Reactions. Skin SensitivityAbstract
Cosmetics are products applied to the body's surfaces, such as skin and hair, with the aim of beautifying and maintaining aesthetic appearance, with or without therapeutic intent. In contrast, dermocosmetics focus on the treatment and prevention of skin conditions and are formulated based on scientific evidence. Although they do not require a prescription, some ingredients can be absorbed and enter systemic circulation. Thus, this study aimed to review the literature on allergic reactions caused by these products, identifying allergenic ingredients and clinical manifestations. Nineteen articles were included in the literature review. Fragrances, often responsible for allergic reactions, contain substances that may interact with the skin, leading to conditions like dermatitis. The difficulty in quantifying the incidence of reactions is exacerbated by the lack of clear associations between allergies and cosmetic products, as well as the scarcity of information on labels. Allergies have different incidence patterns between genders, being more prevalent on the hands and faces of women. Safety in baby products is especially critical, with a growing focus on antimicrobial ingredients to replace potentially allergenic preservatives. The review also discusses the effectiveness of labels like "hypoallergenic" and "for children," which often lack regulation.
