Allergy Patch Test

Patch testing is a method of testing a new skin care product or a new skin care ingredient to see if it will work for your unique skin. A lot of skin problems are caused by using ingredients that cause sensitivities for your skin. 

If you have sensitive or allergic skin, it’s always recommended to do a patch test. Even natural ingredients, like herbs, oils, or essential oils can cause sensitivity reactions.

Please note that although patch testing may help to identify a problem ingredient, it is not always a foolproof test. A patch test is not a guarantee against a skin sensitization in the future. 


Patch tests are very important because they help you avoid possible adverse reactions to new ingredients or products. They are especially helpful for people who have allergies or very sensitive skin. 


Procedure:

  • Be sure the area of skin on which you will be performing the test is washed, dry and clean.
  • Apply a small amount of item you are testing* on the upper part of your inner arm (at the crook of the elbow).
  • Cover it with a bandage.
  • Choose a time of day where you can leave the patch test in place for least 24 hours without getting it wet.
  • If you are sensitive to any of the ingredients, a reaction such as reddening, burning, itching, or other irritation, should occur within twenty-four hours of application.
  • If you feel any irritation or reaction, remove the bandage immediately and wash area with soap and water.
  • If you don't see or feel any reaction, the preparation is probably safe to use.

*If you are testing herbs, mix a small amount of herbs with water to make a paste. Apply the herbal paste for the patch test.
