10 Causes of Eczema
Cause #8: Cosmetics
In a world where people are put under a lot of pressure to always look their best, cosmetics is a very big business. Women, in particular, are likely to use a lot of cosmetics and many will not wish to leave the house without make-up. For some people, though, cosmetics are something that can do more harm to the skin than good.
Cosmetics can trigger an outbreak of eczema, so those with the condition will likely use it as sparingly as possible. Some products are marketed as being completely non-allergenic but they can still lead to eczema, although some may be better than others. Regardless of whether or not you do have eczema, you should always try and clean makeup off your skin thoroughly.
