While you might love the experience of opening up a fruit-scented product that transports you from your shower to a tropical paradise, we have some bad news for you. For people with sensitive skin, fragrance can be one of the most irritating ingredients in your beauty products, and if you're suffering from any kind of reaction, swearing off scented products might be the key to ending it for good.
A product labeled "unscented" doesn't necessarily mean it has no smell at all. It could mean that no additional fragrance has been included in the formula to mask the original smell of the product. When you're searching for products that will do the least damage to your skin, make sure to read the ingredient label. Anything that says "fragrance" or "perfume" can be counterproductive to your skincare goals.
Keep away irritation and breakouts by being as gentle with your skin as possible. Opt for fragrance-free options whenever possible, because even if you don't see any skin damage, that doesn't mean it's not there. You can start by choosing an unscented body wash that will get you clean without making you itchy, red, or worse.
Check out some of the best choices ahead, so you can start to improve your skin today.
