Foundation for allergic skin

The problem of choosing a hypoallergenic face cream arises for many women. In the age of the flourishing of chemistry, more and more care products cause allergic reactions on the skin: rash, redness, irritation. We'll tell you what you can use conveniently and safely.

Creams with pleasant aromas and light texture are attractive to most buyers. But often, after a couple of uses, a woman discovers that the product is categorically unsuitable, and moreover, causes harm to the skin. Fortunately, most manufacturers produce special products that can make care easier and minimize the occurrence of any allergic reactions.

How does allergy cream work?

Cosmetics for allergy sufferers should perform the same tasks as all other facial skin care products. But at the same time, hypoallergenic face creams become a salvation for everyone who suffers from allergies and suffers from high sensitivity of the skin. They will also be a godsend for women who do not like products with preservatives and fragrances, preferring the most natural formulations. And only hypoallergenic products should be used during pregnancy and lactation.

Such cosmetics should:

1. moisturize the skin;
2. relieve inflammation;
3. calm down;
4. protect from external irritants;
5. promote natural regeneration, production of collagen and elastin;
6. slow down the aging process.

The main difference between these products is their composition. This product does not contain additives or flavorings, but is maximally saturated with components of plant origin.

A cosmetologist will help you learn more about hippoallergenic creams:

Selection rules

It is important to carefully read the labeling on the jar to ensure that the product does not contain potentially hazardous ingredients. Allergies can be caused by any chemicals used in production: dyes, silicones, arachidonic acid, parabens, flatates, formaldehydes. Mineral oils, which are widely advertised as extremely beneficial for the epithelium, are actually a product of petroleum distillation and often cause a negative skin reaction.

Even fragrances made from natural ingredients are undesirable ingredients. Essential oils that are fashionable today very often cause allergic reactions. Moreover, often a person does not realize that he is prone to allergies until he starts using a product with a certain essential oil.

Which composition is safe for the skin:

1. with water, hyaluronic acid, glycerin;
2. animal fats, vegetable oils;
3. extracts of tea tree, aloe, green tea (these plants rarely cause an undesirable reaction, but perfectly soothe the skin);
4. tocopherol and retinol (vitamins A, E);
5. allantoin and panthenol.

Coconut oil is very useful: it takes care of the skin very carefully, reliably protects it from UV rays, and argon and shea butter are also allowed. Even very sensitive skin will be happy with this composition, its condition will quickly improve. It is clear that such cosmetics cannot be cheap, but there are affordable products. Let's talk about the products that have proven themselves to be the best.

The best mass market creams

The mass market series is accessible: such products are easy to buy in cosmetic departments and on the shelves of household chemical stores. Among them there are both expensive and cheap products, so it’s very easy to choose your option without extra expenses.

Garnier for sensitive skin

Light texture, pronounced anti-inflammatory effect and almost complete absence of foreign aroma - this is why the product is valued by thousands of consumers. "Garnier for sensitive skin" is included in the list of the most reliable hypoallergenic creams, and costs 220 rubles for 50 ml.

One hundred beauty recipes. Humidification source

The manufacturer is included in the rating of the most budget-friendly face creams. But cheap doesn't mean bad. The aroma is pleasant, barely perceptible. The texture is delicate and light, and the product is absorbed quickly. Grape extracts and aloe juice relieve irritation, peeling, and eliminate dryness. Price 60 rubles per tube.

Black pearl for dry, sensitive skin

In principle, facial care products from the Black Pearl company very rarely cause allergies (exceptions include cases of individual intolerance to individual components). Contains a minimal amount of chemicals. The price of the cream is from 200 rubles for 50 ml.

Moisturizers

There are creams that do not cause allergies, but at the same time perfectly restore the skin's moisture balance. The good news is that not all of them are prohibitively expensive. At the same time, it is easy to find universal products to use with your baby.

VivaDerm

Fighting wrinkles

Cosmetic products for allergy sufferers also fight wrinkles, restore skin elasticity, but act more delicately, soothing the skin. You should be prepared for the fact that anti-aging hypoallergenic creams are not cheap.

Hydra-Repulpeur

The cream performs two functions - moisturizes and fights wrinkles. According to the manufacturer, the hydration effect lasts for a day, the skin looks fresh and smooth. The texture is pleasant, enveloping. The price is quite high - 1400 rubles, but consumers say it's worth it.

With regular use, the skin becomes elastic and radiant. The cream is universal, suitable for day and night care. But in addition, you must use a product with SPF factor. Price – 1600 rub.

Remove pimples and comedones

Acne-prone skin that is prone to the appearance of blackheads (comedones) is initially sensitive. A high-quality cream should relieve skin irritation, slightly mattify it, and, if possible, cure acne.

Green Mama. Aleut

The product contains vegetable oils, vitamins E, A, and herbal extracts. The main property is a pronounced anti-inflammatory effect, improving microcirculation in tissues. Intense hydration, nutrition, light mattifying effect. Plus it costs only 250 rubles.

Baziron

The development of the French laboratory Galderma includes benzoyl peroxide, which effectively cleanses pores, but rarely causes allergies. They promise that comedones will dissolve without a trace, and the “breathing” of cells will improve. The price of the product is from 700 rubles.

Sebium Acne

We are looking for a pharmaceutical hypoallergenic product

Pharmacies sell anti-allergenic face creams that claim the right to be called medicinal. Pharmacies are responsible for the products and guarantee the absence of counterfeits on the shelves.

Bark

The Bark contains only natural ingredients - retinol, tocopherol, panthenol, vegetable oils. The cream quickly eliminates any manifestations of allergies, treats inflammation, and eliminates peeling. Price from 600 rub.

Atopra

Atopra is part of a series of products that include anti-allergy ointments. It is considered a medicinal cosmetic and contains allantoin, bisabol, squalane, which quickly soothe even severe irritations. Cost 500 rub.

Vichy

In addition to its hypoallergenic properties, Vichy has a pronounced anti-aging effect, because one of the components is hyaluronic acid and thermal water. The manufacturer encloses the active components in microscopic capsules, so that the product quickly penetrates into the deep layers of the skin. Vichy is delicate, absorbs quickly and leaves no greasy residue. Price from 2500 rub.

In conclusion, let us remind you that not all products labeled “hypoallergenic” are actually hypoallergenic. Before applying to your face, you should make sure that it is suitable for you personally.

How to determine if your skin is prone to allergies? Do a little test. To do this, apply a little cream to the bend of your elbow and observe the reaction. If a burning sensation appears, the skin turns red, or begins to itch, it is highly likely that you should not use the product.

Girls, please tell me! Maybe someone else has the same problem as me. I can’t find a foundation that is long-lasting and hides redness. My skin is generally abnormal, it’s terrible. It reacts to everything, immediately the redness begins, a burning sensation, etc. I've tried a bunch of daytime ones and Nivea blue is more or less suitable, and I apply Boro Plus at night.
Foundation is very necessary to hide all the imperfections. so that it moisturizes and is not felt on the skin., and is suitable for my allergenic skin.. Thanks for the answers)

How to test a cream for allergies?

If there is no redness, then the cream is suitable for you and will not cause you an allergy.

Allergy symptoms: The main symptom of an allergy to a cosmetic product is redness, itching and skin rashes.

If redness and itching occur some time after applying the cream, then you should change the cream to one that suits you.

If an allergy appears after the cream, then you should stop using it. Don’t forget that you can always make your own hypoallergenic face cream.

For self-treatment, it is best to use non-hormonal ointments and creams.

I would like to share my opinion about Aven cosmetics - a French pharmacy brand. Manufacturers present it as the most delicate for sensitive skin. This means my skin turned out to be the MOST sensitive. Although the Yves Rocher cream and mask did not cause any allergies on my skin. Although, I do not rule out a cumulative effect. For a long time, for a year, I used soap, with Colt cream, hand cream, with it, Sicalfat face and body cream, Sicalfat hand cream. At first, nothing bad happened to my skin, but I didn’t feel any excitement either. By winter, my skin became very dry, I bought Trixer cream + and then disaster struck. On the first day I purchased this cream, I applied it to the crook of my arm, above the elbow. I left it until tomorrow, it didn’t cause any redness or itching, but after a few hours I noticed that the vascular pattern at the site of application had intensified, I didn’t pay any attention to it and applied the cream to my face the next day. The burning sensation began immediately, the skin became red, severe itching appeared, the pores enlarged, and the skin began to swell. In bewilderment, I waited another 20-30 minutes, but when my eyes began to water and the whites of my eyes turned red (the blood vessels became frighteningly large), I began to wash this “miracle cream” off my face. The skin continued to burn, the burning sensation has not gone away to this day. A week has passed. The redness remains on the face to the touch, as if sprinkled with small particles and at the same time it is very flaky, strongly tightens the skin. I don’t risk putting anything on it to soften it. I wash my face only with slightly warm water, without detergents. I won’t go to the doctor, they usually don’t prescribe anything other than hormonal ointments and creams, but I’m familiar with Sinaflan ointment, a pigment spot has remained on the skin, after it, for 20 years. So “thank you” to the Aven brand for such “miraculous cosmetics”, I would like you to use it yourself. As I already wrote above, a cumulative effect is possible, but this does not make me feel any better; this means that these products contain a toxic substance, which, when accumulated, can cause an allergic reaction, and if you are unlucky, like me, then dermatitis. I do not recommend this brand to anyone, to those who periodically suffer from allergies or dermatitis. Only for healthy skin.
