Default What are some allergic reactions caused by makeup? - 01-10-2009, 12:14 AM

I recently bought some face powder and foundation at Target and I did not like it and unfortunately Target doesn't take opened makeup...one of the employees told me that when she doesn't like makeup she tells the store she had an allergic reaction and they take it. I'm thinking of doing the same thing (yes it makes me feel sneaky but come on that policy sucks and yes I know why they have it but still) so yeah...I wanna know what are some reactions people got from foundation in case they ask me what happened...Thank You

I sometimes just end up beginning cheap and trying out a few different ones. Do what fits your situation and Im pretty sure your instinct will be right. I use http://BrandsMakeup.com

With certain eye shadows, my eyelids get dry, flaky, red, and swollen. They also develop a few tiny bumps.

Allergic reactions to makeup can be a number of things. The more common reactions are pimples, oily skin, and redness to your skin. Other reactions, however, could be blisters, itchy skin, scaly skin (peeling, dry skin, etc.), swelling, hives, and raw skin. The most common areas of breakouts from makeup allergies are around the eyes, lips, neck, and ears.
