About MeHello, my name is Maya!
I'm 16 years old and I love to go shopping and spend time with friends. I've had a mild allergy to cosmetics and makeup ever since I was young. My allergy can cause my skin to be red, itchy, sore and cause swelling. I have to stay away from certain types of cosmetics or else I can have a reaction. . |
About My Allergy
My allergy is a mild allergy to cosmetics, also known as contact dermatitis.
Cosmetics are made up of different chemicals in order to look the best on your skin, but sometimes these chemicals can irritate your skin.
Cosmetic allergies usually only range from being mildly severe to moderately severe and symptoms can range from getting redness, swelling, itching, and hives(bumpy red rash).

Dealing With My Allergy
Every day I have to be careful of my allergy and stay alert.
When I use cosmetics I need to make sure I buy hypo-allergenic makeup and don’t apply too much and wear makeup too often.
I also make sure I never share makeup with friends as I could have a reaction.
